"If you have little tolerance for ecclesiastical blowhards; if youve ever fantasized about implementing a clergy rating system (CRS); if youve ever sought tips on surviving diocesan convention; if youve ever tried to weasel your way out of pledging; then this book is for you, says author Tim Schenck.My take on church life isnt for everyone-clergy who take themselves too seriously will hate it. But know that it all comes out of a place of deep love for God and the Church. There are inevitably things that drive us nuts about such an imperfect (i.e., human) institution. Yet if we cant observe and comment on our own foibles were left without much hope. And anyway if God doesnt have a sense of humor, Im hosed."
