Overview

You might be familiar with the Serenity Prayer. But are you familiar with the Anti-serenity Prayer? 

Maybe you can recite the Apostle’s Creed. But can you recite the Five Points of Calvinism? 

You probably know Psalm 23. But do you know about Shakespeare’s odd connections to Psalm 46? 

Perhaps you even know how many animals Moses brought with him on the ark. (Trick question! None!) But do you know how Noah illuminated the ark? (With floodlights!) 

With its fascinating lists, amusing anecdotes, inspiring poetry, and sundry other trivia, curiosities, and fragments, A Christian Miscellany is the perfect addition to any quirky Christian’s library or nightstand.
