This riotous collection of bona fide stories and puns related to traditions of worship serves up religious gaffes in a family-friendly style. Forgive Me, Father, For I Have Grinned features amusing anecdotes of comical church incidents as well as examples of Christians who have gotten the boot for poorly chosen words uttered in front of their congregations. A section on cemeteries looks at bizarre, witty, and often brazenly frank tombstone inscriptions, such as the following:

He was so cold natured;
Warm in life he was not.
Now it is believed he’s very warm,
In a place where it’s very hot!

Forgive Me, Father, For I Have Grinned is the perfect gift of cheer for yourself, your family members, or your whole congregation.
