The Leaven of Laughter provides hundreds of humorous quotes and
anecdotes to be found at a moment's notice. The material is
prearranged according to 44 themes intrinsic to the Lenten and
Easter Seasons and will provide the particular nuance or insight
needed in a sermon, lesson plan or article.
The book bears testimony that one of the best tools to "keep the
saints awake" is the thoughtful use of humor. Time and again I have
seen an appropriate humorous remark refocus and energize a
congregation. I have also seen the power of humor: Puncture human
pompousness and pride Combat hypocrisy Expose ignorance and bad
decisions Enable the audience to psycologically identify with the
speaker Diffuse explosive situations and help resolve conflicts
Build bridges of understanding and communication Release us from
the crushing seriousness of life Increase concentration and
listening capacity Heal broken spirits Reduce our fears Open us up
to hear and accept new ideas Capture attention of children and
youth
