And of course, you'll find yourself laughing out loud as you read." --John Maxwell</p> </p><em>Funny How Life Works</em> is a behind-the-scenes look at the life and career of comedian Michael Jr. Infused with the same laugh-out-loud humor and practical wisdom that define his stand-up acts, Michael shares a collection of stories meant to inspire readers to embrace their purpose--their "punchline."</p> </p>Michael Jr. proposes that life is more similar to comedy than we know. Rather than assuming that our days are random and obstacles are unfortunate, Michael Jr. encourages readers to strategically embrace each life event as part of a setup, leading to their punchline.</p> </p>This unique look at life is demonstrated by stories from Michael's own personal and professional life. From unruly hecklers to an unexpected <em>Tonight Show</em> audition, <em>Funny How Life Works</em> is filled with humor and seasoned with wisdom. It is more than a memoir--it's a source of inspiration.</p> </p> </p><p><strong>What others are saying: </strong></p> </p><p>Michael Jr. is exceptionally gifted at combining funny stories and spiritual principles.

Along with that joy is a message of deep faith in the Father who loves us unconditionally. In a time when we need hope and humor more than anything, Michael delivers both in droves.</p><p><strong>--Andy Stanley</strong>, Author, communicator, and founder of North Point Ministries</p> </p><p>"Michael Jr. is not just one of the funniest people I've ever met--he's also one of the smartest. He's so skilled at hiding his wisdom in humor that I wanted to call his book a Trojan horse, but the metaphor fell apart when I realized the surprises inside were intended to help rather than harm.
