Father Tim's Church Survival Guide
From the Introduction: “My take on church life isn’t 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 can’t observe and comment on our own foibles we’re left without much hope. And anyway if God doesn’t have a sense of humor, I’m hosed."

Illustrated by popular cartoonist Jay Sidebotham, Dust Bunnies in the Basket challenges us to go deeper this Lent, to "kick up some dust every now and then, to roll up our sleeves and get involved with the world and the people around us."

Reading your church survival guide and it is delightful. Though your section on names is helpful, it didn't go quite far enough. What is the difference among rector, vicar, and priest in charge? I am a 'late in life, bishops ring on the head' Episcopalian, and I must have missed that class. I am also a Lent Madness faithful.
