Please note that this book contains jokes from many sources. In general, jokes have no authors. They are "hand-me-downs" from one generation to another and/or one person to another. The jokes are my collection over a period of 30 years taken from many sources: books, emails, word-of-mouth, my memory, joke websites, friends, etc. I have attempted to avoid distasteful and lurid jokes, but some contained in this book may be a bit risqué. And finally, there is no category ordering of the jokes, such as animal, barroom, St. Peter at the Pearly Gates, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera.

There is a raging fire not only within me but in this house. A boy shouldn't have had to save me. As his mom, that was supposed to be my job. Happy-ever-afters were a joke we were told as children in the form of stories. When I met him, I knew it was too good to be true. He deserves better than a shell of a woman. Besides, the monster has a hold on me, and he isn't letting go. ChaseBachelorhood was the life for me.

In all likelihood, most of us wonder about the end of life here, how to be ready when it comes, and what the future holds. We hear all sorts of answers from many sources, from wild to probable. Many people believe that heaven is a place where all the good go after we die, so “You’d better watch out, you’d better not cry”, and that heaven is everlasting and to be much preferred over the alternative—hell.

As small children growing up, our parents would try to focus on being prepared for the future. In our preparation, we learned that there were a lot of uncertainties. The one thing that we can be certain of is Bible prophecies. Of the many prophecies of the Bible, more than 300 messianic prophecies (prophecies concerning Christ) have been fulfilled. Also, prophecies about the course of world history and the rise and fall of world powers have been fulfilled. Prophecies that have been fulfilled should be an encouragement of what remains to be fulfilled.

To any listener, I wish you to know that Jesus did rise from the dead! He did it because he was God incarnate, and so he might save you from your sins. This trial was a work of fiction. What was not fictional, however, is the fact that Jesus rose from the dead, and that the Jewish Sanhedrin went to a great deal of trouble, as fictionalized here, to keep the knowledge of Jesus's resurrection from the world.
