Something to Think About:

 

Sam Jones, a noted preacher, once said, "If a man should come to haul logs with a team made up of a mule, a billy goat, a bumblebee, and a skunk, I would think him crazy; but the average preacher ofttimes has just such a team in his congregation to help him – a stubborn kicker, a 'butter," a stinger, and a stinker." Just thank God if your Church is different.
