Phillip Dillman is a man of faith, music and cartoons.
More Scripture Scribbles: Cartoons from the Choir Loft is Phillip Dillman’s second book. The first book of cartoons clearly tickled the funny bone in people of all faiths.

Either way, it is hoped that everyone will enjoy the book and not b
This is not a book to read. It did remind me of a good short story called "Sweet Surrender".
"Fairy Werewolf vs. As a reference book, the style of summaries to open each chapter and italicsized summaries at the head of each year may be fine, but they result in unnecessary repetition for the reader who intends to read the whole book as a history.
The editors' decision to use present-perfect tense on past events seemed, at times, disconcerting; as did the decision to handle events on a straight chronological basis rather than to follow a specific development through a multi-year transistion in a single section.
The book has an excellent bibliography at the end for further reading on key points of interest. The harshest attacks on him arguably came from prejudiced critics who, rather unfairly and unwisely, regarded his music as imitation of foreign sounds. She didn't know when her turn will be up, and didn't accept it as a way of life. And this is another thought prov
