Does God have a sense of humor? As readers of Delightful Grace will plainly see, the answer is a resounding “Yes!” In the eleven short tales collected in this volume, children and adults alike will smile and laugh as they enjoy amusing stories about saints, miracles, and answered prayers. With exciting twists and turns, the stories pose intriguing questions: What happens to the struggling little boy who beseeches Saint George for help—and offers him an omelet? How will Archangel Michael respond when a mischievous young sailor steals a beloved goose? Will a noisy group of frogs listen to Saint Athanasios and stop their loud croaking? Will the Panagia intercede for a devout servant and send a cup of rice pilaf to a distant land? Filled with charming illustrations and wholesome, lighthearted tales, Delightful Grace makes clear what Orthodox saints have always known—there is much laughter in Heaven!
