"Sermon Comment"
After a very long and boring sermon the parishioners filed out of the church saying nothing to the preacher. Towards the end of the line was a thoughtful person who always commented on the sermons."Pastor, today your sermon reminded me of the peace and love of God."
The pastor was thrilled. "Nobody has ever said anything like that about my preaching before. Tell me why."
"Because it endured forever."

Yeah, pretty funny! I remember when our family would ride home from church, my dad would comment about the sermon and make sure us kids understood the concepts to apply them to our lives. He gave us incentive to take notes (like an ice cream cone), and when we were too young to write, he'd encourage us to draw pictures of something we're hearing in the service. I wish those pictures were saved... I bet you we'd draw some pretty random stuff. However, I thank God that my father wanted me to learn to listen to sermons.... so the concepts would "endure forever"!

I would pass the joke on to my own pastor, but isn't it a bit insulting?
You'd listen to a 90 minute lecture in college, or watch a 3+ hour movie specacle without complaint.
Why is the clock running on sermons. I guess my answers need shortening too.
If you brought a neibour who never heard the good news before, maybe the time wouldn't bother you so much.

My pastor got this advice from her father:
Get a really storng uplifting start, end it with a big flourish and don't put anything in between.

A child asked his father "can I use the car" the father answered "only when you get your hair cut" the child replied "but Jesus had long hair" and the father said "yes, and Jesus walked everywhere"

Thanks that was classic.
Wonder if Father K has this in a file in his office?
He must have heard it while at school.
Peace, and blessings to you for making people smile, and laugh!
