Synopsis

This humorous book depicts the funniest moments from the life and ministry of Al Detter, who has been in the ministry for almost five decades. He recounts major events in his life through the lens of comedic relief, from his childhood, college years, his ministry, and relationships. Each chapter is a short story told with light-hearted warmth designed to bring a smile to your face and a laugh to your lips. You don’t need to know Al to appreciate all the predicaments and miscues that he has experienced, some of which happened to him and some of which he has gotten himself into. Anyone who wants to be encouraged and needs a good chuckle should read this book!
