Good Book Also Says...: Numerous Humorous Poems Inspired by the New Testament

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING

As a faithful reader of the Holy Book and with deep respect for the divine, Ben Milder�challenges the reader to put one�s faith where it belongs!  — Allen O. Miller, Eden Theological Seminary

I found Ben Milder�s poems on the New Testament amusing, entertaining, and, above all, readable. The discrepancy between the subject of a poem and its treatment is an ancient and honorable one and is the source of much of the best comic verse. Here, Ben Milder has taken the most serious of subjects�and given it expression in various light-verse forms. The result is hilarious and gives, as well, new insight into these well-known texts.  — John Mella, editor of Light: The Quarterly of Light Verse
