About John Shore

A former magazine writer and editor, John Shore’s life as a Christian writer began the moment when, at 38 years old, he was very suddenly (and while in a supply closet at his job, of all places) walloped by the benevolent hand of God.

 

 

 

John's most recent book is Midlife Manual for Men, which he co-authored with Stephen Arterburn, author of the best-selling Every Man series and host of the nationally syndicated Christian radio show, New Life Live. Midlife Manual is the first of four books John and Steve will be writing together for Bethany House Publishers; the next, Being Christian, will be out in September 2008. John is also the author of I'm OK--You're Not: The Message We're Sending Non-Christians and Why We Should Stop (NavPress); Penguins, Pain and the Whole Shebang (Seabury Books); and co-author, with Richard Lederer, of Comma Sense (St. Martin's). Both Penguins and Comma Sense won San Diego Book Awards for best books in their respective categories (Religious/Spiritual, and How To/Reference).

My Terrible Fortune

Last night my wife Cat and I went out to a Chinese restaurant. So guess what my fortune cookie said?

"You will experience small success, especially in romance."

Which leaves me with two questions: 1. Does anyone out there know if "small" is Chinese for "great"? And 2: Am I the only person in the world who's ever gotten a negative fortune-cookie fortune? I've gotten a really weird fortune-cookie fortune before (which you can read about here), but I've never gotten one like this, where it's basically telling me that I'm a loser -- especially in romance. Has anyone else ever gotten, like, The Fortune Cookie of Doom?

I mean, who in heaven do you have to tick-off in order to have delivered to you a fortune cookie that tells you you're a loser??

Comment/answer here.
