Meddling Minister Part II

We are now positively absolutely painfully convinced that our pastor, Steve Swofford, has bugged our house. Every Sunday we go to church hoping for a sermon that points to it that we can heartily say, "You tell em, preacher!" Sadly the man knows every thought, every act that I do weekly. And worse, he comes up with a sermon and SCRIPTURE to match.

He started a series this morning on "A Checkup from the Neckup---Adjusting our Attitudes." The highlight today was to stop complaining. He said God was against it. The man is either psychic or omnipresent or asking God what I need to hear or just plain lucky that he can pick topics that hit me. I prefer the latter.

As Brother Steve got to the invitation plea, and he's asking us to get our attitudes right with God and stop complaining, someone's cell phone starts ringing. Not missing a beat, he says, "See, he's calling you right now. Will you answer the call?"
