Most entertaining sermons ever

I can't believe no one's reviewed this yet. I have all three of these books and love them. If you're the kind of person who doesn't believe God has sense of humor, you might want to stay away. But if you think God might occasionally manifest as a scruffy Trickster who will go tooling off across the desert in a VW with a minister to show him the meaning of life, you might enjoy these books a lot. I can't remember which volume it was in, but my favorite scene was the one where Kitchell meets Coyote and Jesus in the local donut shop for a discussion of theology.
