The Way of the Donkey is an entrancing book that will delight all ages. Learn all about donkeys, their incredible history, and how people are supported by and enjoying donkeys throughout the world today. Donkeys were first domesticated in Egypt 5,000 years B.C. They were the first animal used in service to humanity. Use of donkeys allowed for the establishment of trade routes. These trade routes brought people together and allowed civilization to flourish. In many parts of the world, donkeys remain a valuable service animal for families. Donkeys are also popular as family pets and more. Donkeys have fun doing donkey shows, pack burro racing, donkey trail riding, donkey trekking, donkey therapy, and even helping out at weddings. Donkeys have also played a role in every major religion as an animal that provides valuable service. Donkeys have traits that, when modeled, help people feel happy and empowered and respond effectively when things get tough. This is The Way of the Donkey. Donkeys connect with friends, reach out to be kind, build their strengths, and focus on the good. If things get tough, donkeys stop and stay calm, stand tall, and think things through.

The heartwarming tale of an irrepressible donkey who needed a home—and forever changed a family. Rachel Anne Ridge was at the end of her rope. The economy had crashed, taking her formerly thriving business along with it. She had been a successful artist, doing work she loved, but now she felt like a failure. How would her family pay their bills? What would the future hold? If only God would somehow let them know that everything was going to be all right . . . and then Flash the donkey showed up. If there is ever a good time to discover a wounded, frightened, bedraggled donkey standing in your driveway, this wasn’t it. The local sheriff dismissed Flash as “worthless.” But Rachel didn’t believe that, and she couldn’t turn him away. She brought Flash into her struggling family during their darkest hour—and he turned out to be the very thing they needed most. Flash is the true story of their adventures together in learning to love and trust; breaking down whatever fences stood in their way; and finding the strength, confidence, and faith to carry on. Prepare to fall in love with Flash: a quirky, unlikely hero with gigantic ears, a deafening bray, a personality as big as Texas, and a story you’ll never forget.

Even frustrated grammarians will giggle at the who’s-on-first routine that begins with a donkey’s excited announcement, “I yam a donkey!” Unfortunately the donkey’s audience happens to be a yam, and one who is particular about sloppy pronunciation and poor grammar. An escalating series of misunderstandings leaves the yam furious and the clueless donkey bewildered by the yam’s growing (and amusing) frustration. The yam finally gets his point across, but regrettably, he’s made the situation a little bit too clear . . . and the story ends with a dark and outrageously funny twist.

Jesus had little patience with institutional religion that cared for its own needs while neglecting the plight of ordinary people. In one of his most famous parables, he sets up as a model of Christian behavior a man who, unlike some religious folks, actually gets down off his donkey and helps a person in dire need. With energy and enthusiasm, Reggie McNeal calls believers to dismount, get down and dirty, and live a life that makes a difference. He shows readers how to recalibrate their spiritual efforts to move from church-centric service to greater community engagement in order to do their essential part in creating a world worth living in. McNeal also shows readers that helping others actually helps the one doing the service just as much as the one being served. In fact, serving is the very best way to learn about yourself and grow spiritually. Anyone who longs to have the impact on the world that Jesus did will love this provocative and inspirational message.
