The Hilarious Book of Heavenly Humor by Bob Phillips & Johnny Hawkins

Bestselling jokester Bob Phillips (more than 5.4 million books sold) and godly, goodly humor cartoonist Jonny Hawkins team up to take a lighthearted look at church, Bible characters and events, and faith in this collection that offers a bit of humor for those in the pulpit, pews, and anywhere in between.



Eve: Adam, do you love me?


Adam: Who else?

Question: What caused Abel to feel neglected?


Answer: His parents were raising Cain.


This collection of jokes, quotes, and cartoons, alphabetized and indexed from Abel to Zacchaeus, will be a favorite resource for those who want to freshen their bulletins, newsletters, speeches, or sermons—or just infuse their earthly days with some good clean fun.

My review:
I love a good joke book, and am always on the look out for a good and clean one. This falls into both categories. It is full of humorous quips and cartoons centering around the Bible and church. Some I had heard before, and many I had not, but all put a smile on my face and many caused me to chuckle out loud.

Bob Phillips wrote the written part of the book, and Johnny Hawkins did the cartoons. Both guys did a great job of presenting good, clean Christian humor. This a book I'd recommend to anyone who likes humor, and it would be great for bulletins and a tool for pastors to insert in their messages.
