Fully tuned up in a 3-day
spiritual retreat
held at a resort, 3 Pastors spent the last evening on the golf course. After several horrible shots, their caddy asked: "Are you guys Pastors attending the retreat?"
"Actually, yes," one of them replied. "Why?"
"Because," said the caddy, "I’ve never seen such
bad golf and such clean language."
Service leader started
differently this Sunday. He asked congregation to take out their cell
phones and said: "Now is the time to turn off the technology and turn on
each other."
There was a Pastor just had
all of his remaining teeth pulled and new dentures were being made. The 1st Sunday, he only preached 10 minutes. The 2nd Sunday, he only preached
20 minutes. But the 3rd Sunday, he preached more than an hour. When
some of the congregation asked about this, he responded:
The 1st Sunday, my gums were so sore, it
hurt to talk;
The 2nd Sunday, my
dentures were hurting a lot; The 3rd Sunday, I accidentally grabbed
my wife's dentures... I couldn't stop talking.
A husband visited a marriage
counselor and said: "When we were first married, I came home from
the office, my wife would bring my slippers and our cute little dog would run
around barking. Now after ten years it's all different. I come home, the dog brings
the slippers and my wife runs around barking."
"Why complain?" said the counselor,
"You're still getting the same service."
One
Sunday afternoon, the Pastor's wife dropped into an easy chair: "Oh, dear, I'm
so tired!" Her husband looked over at her: "I had to conduct a special service last night and three today, and give a total of four sermons. Why are you so tired?" The Pastor's wife rolled her eyes at him: "Dear, I had to listen to all of them!"
"I don't go church anymore. Perhaps you have noticed that, Pastor?" boasted a wandering member.
"Yes,
I have noticed that." said the Pastor.
"Well, the reason I don't go is because so many hypocrites there."
"Oh, don't let that keep you away. We have room for more." replied the
Pastor with a smile.
Little Johnny's mother looked out the window and
noticed him "playing church" with their cat.
He had the cat sitting quietly and he was preaching to it. She smiled and went
about her work. A while later, she heard loud meowing and hissing. She ran to
the window and saw Johnny was baptizing the cat in a tub of water.
She called out, "Johnny, stop that! The cat is afraid of water!"
Johnny looked up at her and said, "He should have thought about that
before he joined my church."
