This is another way of saying that some people smell the roses, while others just complain about the thorns. In his warm, conversational style, popular author James W. Moore explores the reasons why some people are able to see our time on earth as a gracious gift from God rather than as an agonizing endurance test; and, simply put, why some people have the ability to celebrate life with an abundance of gratitude. Each chapter in this book includes a reference to an important passage of Scripture, powerful stories and examples from the lives of others, and practical suggestions for better daily living. A study guide is also included. Chapter Titles: Can You Feel the Strength to Keep on Believing When It's Hard? Can You Feel the Zest of Life? Can You Feel the Power of Commitment? Can You Feel the Joy of Freedom? Can You Feel the Power of Love? Can You Feel the Strength to Persevere? Can You Feel the Attitude of Gratitude? Can You Feel the Call to Discipleship? Can You Feel the Quality of Childlikeness? Can You Feel the Firm Foundation? Can You Feel the Good Side of Worry? Can You Feel the New Way of Looking at Things? Can You Feel the Miracle of Encouragement? Can You Feel the Sense of What's Valuable? Can You Feel the Beauty of Inclusiveness? Can You Feel God Hugging You to Life?

ISBN: 9780815627470

Rebellious Laughter changes the way we think about the ordinary joke. Claiming that humor in America is a primary cultural weapon, Boskin surveys the multitude of joke cycles that have swept the country during the last fifty years. Dumb Blonde jokes. Elephant jokes. Jewish-American Princess jokes. Lightbulb jokes. Readers will enjoy humor from many diverse sources: whites, blacks, women, and Hispanics; conservatives and liberals; public workers and university students; the powerless and power brokers. Boskin argues that jokes provide a cultural barometer of concerns and anxieties, frequently appearing in our day-to-day language long before these issues become grist for stand-up comics.
