Last week, I posted ridiculous riffs on Rob Bell’s book titles. I also invited you to do your worst best, and proffer your own takes on famous Christian books.
There were some very clever, creative entries, such as:
This one from Chris Morris (follow him on Twitter @cmorriswrites)
All of Joel Osteen’s books were originally titled Look at My Pearly Whites Shine Like the Sun in My $3000 Suit.
Then there was this from Larry Carter (follow him on Twitter @larrythedeuce):
Don’t Lick The Mini-Me
This from Rob Shepherd (follow him on Twitter @robshep):
Everyday A Payday (by Joel Osteen)
Kevin Haggerty (follow him on Twitter @kevinrhaggerty) brought this gem:
“Intimacy with God (and His son, and His buddy the Holy Spirit…because they’re totally different people — not one person)” by T.D. Jakes
These were all strong contenders, but as with Highlander, “there can be only one” winner. Up for grabs was a copy of Leanne Shirtliffe’s hilarious book, Don’t Lick The Minivan. In the interests of objectivity, I had my good buddy, Ricky Anderson (who because he already owned a copy, recused himself from the giveaway), pick the winner.
Which was (drum roll, please)…

Congratulations, Blake! A copy of Mrs. Shirtliffe’s book is on its way to you from her agent. Thanks to everyone who played!
