HOLY HUMOUR
A minister suddenly called away and unable to officiate at the services of his own church, entrusted his new assistant with the duty. When he returned home, he asked his wife what she thought of the young man’s preaching. “The poorest I have ever heard,” she said. “Nothing in it at all. It didn’t even make sense,” she added. Later that day, the minister, meeting his assistant, asked him how he had managed. “Fine, sir, absolutely wonderful,” he said. “I didn’t have time to prepare anything myself, so I preached one of your old sermons.”
CORRECT?
A minister and lawyer were chatting at a party: “What do you do if you make a mistake on a case?” the minister asked. “Try to fix it if it’s big; ignore it if it’s insignificant,” replied the lawyer. “What do you do?”
The minister replied “Oh, more or less the same. Let me give you an example. The other day I meant to say ‘the devil is the father of liars,’ but instead I said ‘the devil is the father of lawyers’, so I let it go.
THE SUNDAY JOKE
REPENT AND REPAINT!
A painter was hired to paint the exterior of a church.
His practice was to thin the paint so that he could make a larger profit.
As he was painting the church a torrential rain began to fall and it washed all of the paint off.
Then, as quickly as the rain began, it ended, and the sun came out.
As the painter gazed skyward, he heard a voice from above saying:
” Repaint! Go, and thin no more.”
