Get into the humour habit and prepare yourself for the 'laughter-life'!

Third Book of Catholic Jokes

Author: Deacon Tom Sherdian
Publisher: ACTA Publications
ISBN: 0879466111
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 101

Book Description
As Pope Benedict XVI has said, "A writer once said that angels can fly because they don't take themselves too seriously. Maybe we could also fly a bit if we didn't think we were so important." Imagine the pontiff, now in his eighties and undoubtedly feeling the pains of growing older himself, cracking a joke about it to one of the cardinals in the Vatican. So must every married couple do as they go about the business of maintaining a loving, committed relationship...but discover that they still get on each other's nerves occasionally.Here is The Third Book of Catholic Jokes, chosen and told by Deacon Tom Sheridan, the former editor of The Catholic New World, the newspaper of the Archdiocese of Chicago. He is now retired and living with his wife in Florida. The book also features a Foreword by Father James Martin, SJ, the culture editor of America magazine and the author of Between Heaven and Mirth: Why Joy, Humor and Laughter Are at the Heart of the Spiritual Life.This edition of this popular series of books focuses on the universal--and often hilarious--human experience of relating to one another and growing old together. These stories, jokes, lists, and one-liners are mostly about lay people and are told from a "Catholic" (that is, Roman Catholic) or a "catholic" (that is, universal and about everyone) perspective. They are "clean" and not "mean" and are certainly not intended to offend anyone of any faith or situation in life. But if we can't make fun of ourselves about the difficulties of growing older or trying to maintain our most intimate relationships over a lifetime, then how can we ever expect to "fly a bit"?

Book Description
Joel Osteen Jokes Every week Pastor Joel Osteen likes to get started with something funny. Having a sense of humor is an important attribute for all of us to have. We all need the capacity to laugh. After all, joy is a gift from God. We all know there's more than enough negative things in the world that we hear about each and every day, either through the news media or even in our own lives and the lives of those around us. Are You a Light Hearted Person? I personally feel that we should always be looking for things that make us laugh, chuckle or smile. I like the feeling of being a "Light Hearted" person and I hope you do too. I am arguably Joel Osteen's biggest fan but rather than argue about it, I'd prefer to just give in to anyone else who feels that they are a bigger fan than me. I currently weigh about 170 pounds so if you weigh more than I do, I guess you have a valid point. Now if you found that (my corny joke) even slightly amusing, I believe that you are going to absolutely love this collection of Joel's Jokes that I have put together all in one place that you can read in one sitting if you'd like. And if you're like me, you'll enjoy telling them just as much as reading them. Joel states upfront that the jokes are not doctrinally correct... that they're just to make us laugh so I too want to mention that here. Chapter Headings Included Are: • Ladies Joel Heard About • Men Joel Heard About • Ministers and Pastors • Miscellaneous You could use a good laugh right about now, couldn't you? You could be laughing within minutes. See you on the inside.

The Sacred Art of Joking

Author: James Cary
Publisher: SPCK
ISBN: 0281080933
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 140

Book Description
Every few weeks a politician, pundit or soap star causes a media storm by making a gaffe or tweeting a joke that some people do not find funny. Comedy is very hard to get right and yet we think it’s important to have a sense of humour and not take yourself too seriously. On the other hand, a sense of humour failure can lead to losing your friends, your twitter account, your job, your career and, in some cases, your life. James Cary knows about this. He is a sitcom writer who’s written jokes about bomb disposal in Afghanistan (Bluestone 42), defended comments about Islam by Ben Elton on Newsnight, been on a panel with radical Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary, sits on the General Synod of the Church of England and somehow managed to co-write episodes of Miranda. An odd mix, but one that makes him very readable. This entertaining, breezy book, explains how comedy works (with jokes and quotes) and gives much-needed insights into the controversy surrounding humour.
