Reverence meets irreverence in this collection of Jesus-themed craft projects, which combine popular culture, religious kitsch, and hot glue. The projects are organized by theme, including clothing and accessories, home decor, food and drink, and Christmas, and most require basic crafting skills and supplies. MacDonald's sense of humor shines with projects that poke fun at the clash between popular culture and religion, such as the "War-on-Christmas Action Figures" and the "Jesus' Pet Dinosaur Nacho Platter" (featuring--yes--Jesus riding a dinosaur). While there are several projects in the collection that Christians could get behind, a few, such as the "Fedora of Thorns" and the "Jesus Loves Me Jeans" (featuring religious artwork on the seat and a leather patch reading "Jesus Loves My Ass") may offend the devout. VERDICT Crafting humor is increasingly trendy, and though the easy comparison is to Amy Sedaris, MacDonald's incisive humor puts him in the same wheelhouse as Penn Jillette and other comedians who poke fun at religion.
