The lighter side

A couple of head-turning titles:

United Methodist pastor John Freeman of Decatur, Ga., has written "Fish Deep -- Angling's Lessons for Christians and Other Seekers." Published by the Intentional Growth Center at Lake Junaluska in the N.C. mountains, the paperback sells for $10 and is available at (800) 482-1442. Trolling for spiritual lessons found in fishing isn't Freeman's first foray into sports. He also wrote "Tee-ology: Golf's Lessons for Christians and Other Seekers."

And from aptly named Quirk Books comes The Brick Testament: Stories from the Book of Genesis. For $14.95, you get a hardback that illustrates familiar Bible verses with Legos.
