Abstract
Summary"Humor floods our lives. We use it to entertain, to reduce stress and promote health, to smooth social interactions (or to make people bristle), to sell products of all kinds, to persuade about ideas and much more. Humor is an important and often overlooked part of the spiritual life. Humor skills can be learned; In an accessible and funny way, Laughing Pilgrims: Humor and the Spiritual Journey aims to teach readers effective skills for interpreting and creating humor in their daily lives. Whether it is a "spiritual gift" or "spiritual discipline" humor (and its distortions) can powerfully reveal and shape our spiritual development. Skillful and purposeful use of humor can deepen our spiritual maturity in each of these areas. Laughing Pilgrims will help readers move steadily toward wisdom and great joy." --From publisher's description.
