A blimp that saves souls. A college student who flies. A conflicted
southern preacher in the wake of a local lynching. A mysterious
stranger at a corporate Christmas party who turns water into wine.
Beginning in the late 1950s, Joe Bayly made it his business to
expose the blind spots of American Christianity. How did he do it?
He wrote parables or, as Joe put it, stories on target. And, as it
turns out, he did a pretty good job at it. Here in one collection
are Joe s wisest and funniest stories. These are stories about
sinners, bumblers, fools, and hypocrites. In other words, they are
stories about normal, everyday people. The kind you might find on
the other side of a mirror. And, really, if you re not looking in
the mirror you re missing the point. Not that Joe was mean.
Satirists needn t always be scoffers or cynics. Joe just saw people
the way they were and loved them enough to say so. And he had a
knack for saying so with wit, charm, and a healthy dose of good
humor.
