Sometimes life just stinks -- people disappoint, bad things happen,
and hardship comes. Who Put the Skunk in the Trunk? is a collection
of stories that shows the difference between those who resign and
those who rejoice when reality bites. Readers will be encouraged to
choose joy, to find hope, and to discover the abundant life Christ
offers all who follow Him. Author and humorist Phil Callaway --
once described as "Dave Barry with a message" -- employs his
revealing and hilarious style to remind readers that "It's always
darkest just before the fridge door opens."
