That is so funny! And, amazingly true!

One more-

You are called to the principals office for the deaded "talk" when your kids, while playing church at recess, is standing on a bench, laying hands on the "sick"!

True story. It was suggested that I "curb" our childrens exposure to church services!


Why is it, after you read, re-read, and proof-read, your posts, but you never see that one big mistake until you hit the "Submit" button?

If you are still watching the "Walton's" on TV reruns with the entire family. You are most likely Pentecostal.

I've seen this list several times recently but one of my additional favorite is:
If you get married on a Saturday night, your expected to be in church the next morning.

(I know this personally to be true. Probably because the new couple want to finally be seen sitting together -since they were never allowed to previously.)
