Book Blurb:
The Point Is… is the weekly religious newspaper column written by Pastor James Collins. Within these pages you will find the wit and wisdom of country preacher. He is a natural-born storyteller with a talent for reducing everyday occurrences into messages that pack a spiritual punch. His stories have been called “modern-day parables.” Collins looks at life’s woes and wonders such as a flying rattlesnake, the church, family, a Christian horse, growing up, army life, and the differences in men and women. Don’t Throw The Believer Out With The Baptistry Water will leave you laughing out loud and tearing up a little too. (From Goodreads)
Review:
~I'd like to thank the author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~
Through personal experiences, stories, and experiences of others, Collins presents the gospel in a very easy-to-understand way that's perfect for the long-time believer and the new Christian alike. When the back-cover description says that these stories are like "modern-day parables", I completely agree! I loved all the stories here, and there were SO MANY hilarious moments!! And whether you're 15 or 50, I guarantee there will be lots of times where you'll relate, laugh out loud, and learn something new.
Definitely recommended!
