**Intact Gift Giving Condition book**
For anyone who's ever suspected religion takes itself too seriously, Jesuit priest and New York Times bestselling author James Martin, S.J. Between Heaven and Mirth is Father James Martin's bestselling, laugh-out-loud case that joy isn't a distraction from faith — it's proof of it. (The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything) makes a warm, witty, and deeply researched argument that humor and laughter sit at the very center of a healthy spiritual life. Drawing on Scripture, the lives of the saints, decades in ministry, and no shortage of good jokes, Martin shows why "holy" and "joyless" were never meant to go together.
