Tongue Tied Preacher

by Mark Williams
(Sacramento, CA)

While serving in the military, I attended a small church near the military base. During one service, the minister was preaching about the church's role in bringing sinners back to the Lord. With rapt attention, all eyes were on the minister. With shouts of "Amen" spurring him on, the excited paster proclaimed:

"LET'S HELP THE SAVED GET LOST!"

Silence filled the church. Puzzled looks swept across the room replaced by snorts and chuckles. Red-faced, the minister could only laugh along with his congregation.
