    About this ebook

    How can we, God’s masterpiece, created in HIS image, think of situations as funny, unless the whole idea came from God in the first place? Many say that the nature of God is unknowable, but I'm certain of one thing at least. God Almighty does have a sense of humor. And we need to see this side of Him as well, in order to totally appreciate Him.
    Today, we live in a world that most times seems so overwhelming, where a good laugh and a real smile are rarely ever seen or heard. The everyday stresses of life can leave us feeling hassled, hurried, hopeless and harassed. Add to that a fragile economy during a time of threatened security, and we could be left feeling frightened, vulnerable, and totally off on the stress meter. We therefore need tools for coping, as it's easy to lose simple joy. But, maintaining a close relationship with God, who "sits in the heavens and laughs" (Ps. 2:4) will release that grace to enjoy this ‘joy and laughter’ in our lives, for in His "presence is fullness of joy" (Ps. 16:11). HE is that ‘spring of happiness’ that will enable us to overcome the pressures and trials of life. And joy helps break down those barriers allowing laughter to freely flow. Humor and laughter will not just change your day; they can change your life! It is said that young children laugh as much as 100 to 200 times a day, compared to the majority of adults that only get zero to a few daily laughs a day. Yet laughter is good not only for the body but also for the soul and Spirit. This reservoir of: Christian Jokes for the ‘Serious Religious’ Folks! is an exhaustive collection of rib-tickling, humorous jokes with the purpose being twofold: To help bring joy and laughter into our everyday lives and to help as a great preaching resource for Preachers, Ministers and Teachers of the Word, by helping to tickle any congregation's funny bone -- and grab their attention.
    So, given the above “license to laugh” now, just enjoy the rib-tickling pages that follow and learn to laugh and laugh and laugh, so you'll last and last and last!
