A collection of witty, self-depricating, insightful gems, Reverend Tim Schenck stitches together comic narratives on what it's like to raise a family as an Episcopal priest. Very entertaining!

Kids are full of questions and curiosity about the world around them, even the supernatural. "What Size Are God's Shoes?: Kids, Chaos, and the Spiritual Life" is a guide to introducing one's children to religion and fielding the questions that inevitably follow along with it. Telling how to weave the spiritual into the mundane to religiously educate one's offspring, "What Size Are God's Shoes?" is a useful and enlightening book for Christian parents.

A wonderful collection of witty vignettes taken from the everday life of a clergy family trying to raise kids with a sense of God in the midst of today's chaotic lifestyles.

I loved this book. I looked forward to getting in bed and reading a few chapters every night, guffawing as I related to the author's fatherly trials and tribulations. Parenthood is such a spiritual journey, and I really appreciated Tim's combination of self-reflection and humor and his relating of certain aspects of parenting to God. Even though I am not Christian, I felt very nourished by this book.
