Excerpt from Eight or Nine Wise Words About Letter-Writing The best subject, to begin with, is your friend's last letter. Write with the letter Open before you. Answer his questions, and make any remarks his letter suggests. Then go on to what you want to say yourself. This arrangement is more courteous, and pleasanter for the reader, than to fill the letter with your own invaluable remarks, and then hastily answer your friend's ques tions in a postscript. Your friend is much more likely to enjoy your wit, after his own anxiety for information has been satisfied.

Looking for delightful and heartwarming stories that present familiar spiritual truths in new and insightful ways? Then you?ll definitely enjoy this collection of brief parables in the form of humorous letters sent to Pastor Mike from a fictional parishioner. The letters chronicle a five-year timeframe in the life of the small town of ?Maybe, ? Michigan, the bucolic home of such colorful establishments as the Busy Bee Caf?, Thelma's Cut-n-Curl, and America's first Refrigerator Magnet Museum. Following a folksy formula reminiscent of Garrison Keillor's ?News from Lake Wobegon, ? the homespun letters report on the people and rhythms of everyday life in a typical small town. You?ll share in events like graduations, county fairs, and weddings, and see how they offer a subtle yet compelling platform for examining universal themes of community, faith, and relationship. Each letter is linked to a scripture passage, and engages listeners with an easygoing, conversational tone.
