the second half of the book has many hysterical stories. he's refreshingly honest about his limitations as a handy man. it's meant to be inspirational reading but it's much more than that!

Neat collection of stories written by a Quaker pastor. Most of them are 2-3 pages and are his observations or insights into life and God. There will be at least one or two that will touch your heart in some way. Highly recommended for those who love God and family.
