HUMOR OF JESUS, THE

For the author of this book, humor means saying and doing serious things without putting on airs, without becoming self-conceited. Such humor could well be called virtue, and subsequently should be discoverable in our Lord Jesus Christ. The Humor of Jesus is addressed to every Christian. The serious intellectual will find refreshment in reading this book, renewing that spirit of childlike openness which was recommended so much by Christ in the Gospels—the spirit of the child who always has a question, always wants to know, but who is never arrogant. This book has just the right tone, a simple and clear style, and is written by a man who knows the Gospel intimately.
