Is a good and gracious God really at work in this world through ordinary people in commonplace congregations in unexceptional places? In a time when it is all too easy to write off churches and pastors with a cynic's sneer, would it be heartening to read a collection of stories seasoned with a pastor's genuine affection and enduring respect for a congregation of refreshingly humble, eminently likeable people, stories that provide a conduit of comfort, humor, and hope?

Is a good and gracious God really at work in this world through ordinary people in commonplace congregations in unexceptional places? In a time when it is all too easy to write off churches and pastors with a cynic's sneer, would it be heartening to read a collection of stories seasoned with a pastor's genuine affection and enduring respect for a congregation of refreshingly humble, eminently likeable people, stories that provide a conduit of comfort, humor, and hope? David Shirey has been in ministry for over forty years, but he has never forgotten his first love, a small county-seat church nestled in east central Tennessee. Though there were but two dozen people in the congregation, there was no shortage of glimpses of God's goodness and grace breaking forth from their midst. In It Don't Get Any Better Than This, readers will find three dozen stories seasoned with warmth, humor, and tenderness and a cast of inimitable characters, including: * Chet and his peculiar mandolin ("Them rattlesnake rattles make it sound better!") * Margaret, the feisty octogenarian pianist * Harry bolting for the men's room mid-sermon * Miz Ella promising homemade banana cream pie from her deathbed * And many more The stories told in It Don't Get Any Better Than This transcend time and place and will delight anyone who relishes a good tale told in tones of the gospel story. It's a book that will have you saying, "I needed that." Tuck a napkin in your collar and pull up to the table. You're in for a treat.
