Harley the Redneck Shepherd: A Sheepherder's Humorous View of the First Christmas (Unabridged‪)‬

Harley, the Redneck Shepherd, is an enduring, delightful version of Luke’s account of the night of Jesus’ birth. The timeless message of the gospel shines through as Harley and the Melvins share their account of an astonishing encounter with God’s plan for the redemption of humanity. Whether you are cute as a speckled pup or so homely, your Momma had to tie a bone around your neck to get the dog to play with you. When you find yourself face to face with Jesus, I hope you open your heart to him like Harley, the Melvins, and countless others have done. 

Because J. (Jim) Michael Corley’s grandparents came from the Ozarks, he imagined the shepherds speaking with a southern drawl in the Christmas story. The result is laced with humor, insights, and folksy wisdom. Harley drawls his humorous version of the Christmas story about his encounter with the heavenly host of angels, Mary, and the baby Jesus. Makes a great script for a one-actor Christmas play.
