      Preface

      Proof Positive

      If the proof is in the pudding,

      whose sticky fingers will fetch it out?

      Acknowledgments

      ONCE AGAIN I OWE a special debt of gratitude to my wife, Barbara, whose love for poetry has rekindled my own, and to David Reynolds, who has raised important questions concerning style and meaning to improve my overall contribution.

      Thanks also belong to Wipf & Stock for their willingness to offer yet another title to their ongoing line of first-rate Christian poetry and to Ian Creeger for his obvious typesetting craftsmanship.

      Finally, deep appreciation is due to everyone who has helped to lift this fellow believer out of the downward pull of taking himself and his faith far too seriously.

      The following publications deserve credit for first releasing these poems:

      “I wish I were a soap bubble” in World of Poetry Anthology

      “The Iowa State Fair” in Cresset

      “Art Thou the One?” in Duck Soup

      Introduction

      Laughing Your Way to Heaven
