Description

No one could say the New Testament lacks the human touch – but if you read between the lines you’ll discover it’s also a lot funnier than you might think. Wouldn’t you find it weird if someone suddenly ascended into heaven? Is it possible to discern just a little bit of rivalry between Peter and John? And surely the lack of parables in the fourth gospel is simply crying out to be redressed . . .

In this sparklingly witty book, BBC sitcom writer James Cary gives us a new and liberating way of looking at the gospel and well-known gospel themes. Cheerfully playing around with the text, he takes the Bible seriously but allows us to laugh at our own petty vanities and foibles – and be enlightened in the process. The gospel message is entertainingly related to a modern context, with references ranging from Charles Dickens to The Vicar of Dibley.

All in all, The Gospel According to a Sitcom Writer is ideal for anyone wanting to liven up their Bible reading and looking for new ways to be thrilled by this sacred text. It’s also perfect for priests, pastors, youth leaders and all those involved in ministry and giving sermons, as James Cary shows using comedy and humour is a brilliant way to communicate the gospel.

Warm, funny and full of brilliant insight and Christian humour, The Gospel According to a Sitcom Writer will make you laugh out loud and shake your head in awe. You’ll never read the Bible the same way again.
