In his Apologetics class at Monsignor Bonner High School, Ed Stivender had a special reputation—he was the class clown. One day he pushed Father McGinnis just a little too far, and the teacher gave him a surprising punishment: Ed had to take part in a debate about The Existence of God. And even tougher, he had to argue the side against God’s existence.

Asian Tales and Tellers is a diverse collection featuring more than thirty traditional stories from across the rich Asian cultural landscape.

Not everyone can turn a near‑disaster into a hilarious story—but Brummett sure can. He can make you laugh about the time he jumped off a thirty‑foot windmill into a water tank that turned out to have only three feet of water in it. He can even make a day that began with three giant scorpion stings sound like something you’d tell around a campfire. And somehow, he can turn the moment his three‑year‑old grandson got tossed off a bull—flying higher than Brummett had ever seen a kid fly—into a tale you can’t help but chuckle at.

Billy Edd Wheeler has been part of the country music world for a long time. He started writing songs in Nashville back in the early 1960s, so he knows country music inside and out. And as the person folks call the “Dean of Country Humor,” he knows how to make people laugh, too.

This cheerful collection of church humor doesn’t make fun of faith—it simply reminds us that even the people who lead us can be wonderfully human. These stories and jokes are gentle enough to share with your pastor and clean enough to tell right in church, but they still carry an important message: good leaders serve others with kindness and humility.

What’s the Monster Stick? It’s Paul’s gigantic fishing pole—nine feet long and packed with miles of super‑strong fishing line and shiny, custom‑made sinkers that slide like magic. From the moment Paul gets the Monster Stick, his adventures grow wilder than anything Paul Bunyan ever dreamed up. At one point, he even manages to hook a DC‑10 airplane flown by sneaky smugglers. How he does that… well, that’s part of the fun.

The hills and small towns of western North Carolina in the 1950s come to life in this collection of stories by master storyteller Donald Davis. He’s shared his tales everywhere—from the World’s Fair to the Smithsonian to the National Storytelling Festival—and now he invites readers into the adventures of his own childhood. His stories follow him from his earliest school days all the way to the moment he begins to understand the big changes happening in the world, including the loss of friends during the Vietnam War.
