Humbling Moments, part 349

So I'm sitting at my desk, preparing Sunday's sermon. I'm surrounded by stacks of books, all filled with profound, if sometimes ponderous, insights. It's 2:00 p.m. on a hot, sticky day and I'm having trouble staying awake. I decide to take a break and go to the gas station next door for a soda. Then it hits me: why should we preachers get upset with our people for sleeping during our sermons when we fall asleep preparing them?

Hey, did you see me nudging Squid on Sunday?

It really has been a GREAT sermon series. Too bad we haven't been able to get it podcast!!!

If it makes you feel better I was just joking with cousin Dan that the only church he has been to with me that he hasn't fallen asleep at was Trenton.
