You've been taught to take the Bible seriously. It's time to find the punchline.
For centuries, we've pictured God as a stern hall monitor, perpetually disappointed in humanity's report card. But what if we’ve missed something fundamental, something woven into the very fabric of creation? What kind of cosmic killjoy invents the platypus—a venomous, egg-laying mammal with a duck bill—or designs a prophet who, during a divine showdown, suggests a rival god might be on the toilet?.
Holy Hilarity argues that God's laughter isn't cruel; it’s a form of prophetic truth-telling aimed at deflating our egos, exposing our hypocrisy, and reminding us that we are beloved lumps of dirt (literally, the Hebrew for Adam is "Dirt Guy") prone to tripping over our own feet.
Join author Jason Pfaff on a journey through the most ironic, absurd, and downright funny moments in Scripture—from the talking donkey who corrects a prophet to the plank-eyed surgeon Jesus mocks—and discover that the ability to laugh, especially at yourself, is the most spiritually mature thing you can do. Because if you can't laugh at your mess, you'll never understand the absurd, wonderful, and life-saving joke of grace.
