There is an air of unpredictability about William G. Carter’s sermons… Improbable characters… turn up all over the place: a nursing home resident abandoning her walker to dance the polka… cows listlessly chewing their cuds beneath a Jesus-is-coming sign along the highway. This volume is an attic full of eccentric treasures ready for a rainy day’s exploring… Enjoy their humor, their joyful interplay of the biblical and the contemporary, their delightful poetic cadences.
Thomas G. Long
