Southwestern Baptist Theological SeminaryProfessor's Book is a De-Stressor

Pastor, Professor Relieves Stress by Laughing with Jesus


Does the daily news create knots of fear in your stomach? Do you dread the arrival of your 401k statement? Is the emotional environment at your job uneasy? The current economy and the uncertainty in many industries are creating overwhelming amounts of stress and anxiety. What could be better to combat these negative emotions than a bit of laughter? Dan R. Crawford has taken the expression, “Laughter is the best medicine,” and put it into practice. In his new book, Mud Hen in a Peacock Parade: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Heaven, Dr. Crawford recounts many of the hilarious events that occurred during his numerous years around churchgoers.

In an endorsement of the book, Dr. Dennis “The Swan” Swanberg, America’s Minister of Encouragement, says, “Grab a cup of dark-roast coffee – doctor it up a tad – and find your favorite chair and consume some GREAT comedic commentaries on life provided by Dr. Mud Hen himself – Dr. Reverend ‘not so holy’ Professor Dan Crawford. Dan gives us ‘laughter’ with plenty of ‘life’ on it!”

Dan R. Crawford is senior professor of evangelism and missions, chair of prayer, emeritus, Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, TX, and author/compiler of 17 books including, God’s Formula for Genuine Happiness and Giving Ourselves to Prayer. He and his wife, Joanne, are retired and living in Fort Worth.

Paperback ($14.95) copies of the book are available through online bookstores such as Amazon.com and Barnesandnoble.com. Hannibal Books also offers the book through 800-747-0738 and http://www.hannibalbooks.com. ISBN: 978-1-934749-47-0.
