The whole idea of the SERIOUSLY FUNNY tour was for Adrian Plass and Jeff Lucas to let people in on their conversations about God, life and the universe - and it went pretty well. After all, that's pretty much what they've been doing in their separate writing and speaking careers all these years.All told, people seemed to like the way their trademark styles came together and shed light on even the most difficult subjects, in a way that perhaps made those burdens a little easier to bear.However, as they toured around the country, Adrian and Jeff realised that other people's questions were at least as interesting as their own - possible more so. Eventually they decided they'd better have a go at some answers. This book is the result.They may not have got the answers right, but they have certainly had a good time along the way - and they hope you will, too.

AIDS. Africa. Sickness. Read these words and what comes into your mind? Death? Destruction? Hopelessness? Definitely not my problem? Well, Adrian and Bridget Plass went to Zambia and found out for themselves that the West's image of the truth is far from accurate. Although HIV/AIDS is a problem of staggering proportions, organizations such as World Vision are taking key steps towards a solution. Imaginative teaching, a chance to work, and genuine, prayerful care are all beginning to change things for the better. Can a book about AIDS be filled with amazing stories of hope, tears and laughter? This one is.
