How to Eat Humble Pie & Not Get Indigestion is a nonfiction Christian humor book.  The book explores the role of humility in the Christian life, using the author’s personal anecdotes and witty storytelling to illustrate how God teaches humility through everyday mishaps and “holy pies” moments.

Baumbich distinguishes between humility and humiliation, arguing that true humility frees individuals to be authentic rather than conforming to unrealistic expectations.  She shares humorous real-life stories—such as searching a garbage dump for lost airline tickets or consistently missing golf shots—to demonstrate how these humbling experiences redirected her life without diminishing her spirit.

The book addresses common questions about humility, including:

• Does humility show?
• Is there fun after humility?
• What is false humility?
• How does God teach humility?
