Thor's Day: Holy humor 1

By Anonymous

Edited by Morris Dean

The preacher's 5-year-old daughter noticed that her father always paused and bowed his head for a moment before starting his sermon. One day, she asked him why.
    "Well, Honey," he began, proud that his daughter was so observant of his messages, "I'm asking the Lord to help me preach a good sermon."
    "How come He doesn't answer it?" she asked.

  1. ​A reader emailed me this morning to ask what happened to the dialogue with Kyle Garza? He had correctly inferred from the introduction to ​​Kyle's and my first installment​​ that more were forthcoming in the following weeks. "Since, it proceeded," he wrote, "in a civil manner and showed promise, the lack of an installment this week comes as a surprise."
    ​    Perhaps we should have said in the introduction that installments won't necessarily come on consecutive Thursdays. Kyle and I require several back-and-forths via email to produce a hopefully coherent dialogue. The second installment simply isn't ready yet. It's entirely my fault ​– I'm behind, lots of yard work.
