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).

The Least Cuddly Children's Toy EVER

Here's a toy somebody donated to the thrift store today. Made of rock-hard plastic, it's about twelve inches high. I was going to make a joke about how unsurprising it was that it looks brand new, since no one could have ever  played with it ... but now I feel kind of sorry for ol' ... Horno. Or Zeetmo. Or Splacko. Or whatever in the world the poor thing's name is.

(Oh---for the record, nothing on little ... YowTao moves, or anything. And that weird slanty circle thing on his stomach isn't a button, or anything you can turn or anything. It's just ... that.)

I don't know what kid this toy used to belong to, but I sure do feel sorry for him. Or her. Or it.

 

Comment once you've stopped crying here.
