The Steve Laube Agency
Helping to Change the World Word by Word
Every Sunday’s game day
when you’re at our church,
and up till kickoff time you may
buy yourself some merch,
like giant praying hands (yeah, man!)
made out of lightweight foam,
and when you’re in the pews you can
get hymnals from the gals who roam
eagle-eyed down every aisle
(there is no-where to hide),
and fixing you with fix-ed smile
sell you a little home-church pride
for the coming righteous game,
’cause Pastor’s in the Hall Of Fame.
Back in the pre-digital days, when judges held up a numbered card to evaluate a skater’s or gymnast’s performance, I dreamed that parishioners held up cards evaluating my husband’s sermons. Made me chuckle.
I read about a parishioner who would always sit in the front pew, and when the sermon started would begin building a stack of silver dollars on the rail in front of him. If the sermon went overlong, he’d start removing the coins.
What a hoot! Eek. I’m sure he would have loved that.
Extreme depiction. Not very funny to me.
The only thing I actually “enjoyed” was the
final Game Score at the bottom of the screen
where Pre-Trib outscored Post-Trib. Just bein’
picky. Sorry.
I LOVED it! I don’t even like football (is that sacrilege?) and I ‘got’ this!
I’m sending this to my sports-loving pastor; he’ll love it. They forgot to mention people trampling each other on their way out in the stampede to Golden Corral . . .
Yes!!! 😀
Wouldn’t that be something! They would have serious comments on the single, tasteless “crispy chip” and substandard “wine” we stand in line to receive after the entertainment. Although I’m kind of partial to the suggestion of sermon 1-10 rating boards and would often love a timer in the back signaling the “ 5 minutes” warning.
Hilarious … might need to try it. Better not, I’d get kicked out of the game.
