Funny or Strange Sermons You Have Heard
 

Please don't turn this thread into a preacher bashing one! I thought it would be interesting for folks to share strange or funny sermons, sermon titles, stories in sermons, etc that they have heard in Pentecost.

I don't have a real knee slapper to start off with but today I remembered a sermon I heard while visiting a church I found amusing. The young evangelist preached a sermon on the premise of being thankful to God for what did NOT happen to you.

The sermon was peppered with examples like "You did not get hit by a train today - so THANK GOD!!!!". He was really trying to wind the congregation up into a thanking frenzy for all of the bad things that could have happened to them but did not.

I remember thinking to myself that there sure seemed to be a lot of tangible things we could give God praise and thanks for before resorting to being thankful for bad things that didn't happen!

CC1 That's kinda like the guy that said he lost $10,000 today. His friend said, "Oh really! How that happen?" Well, he said in answer to him, "the price of hogs went up and I didn't have a one!"

I heard a preacher years ago preach on Naaman, "Wash away the butts"!

I heard a sermon on "The Man Who Kissed the Door to Heaven"
and it was about Judas, the betrayer.

I have a great sermon on humility.

I'm just waiting for a big enough crowd to preach it to.

When we were Independent Apostolic - UC - We had a Camp meeting in Florida every year and Pastor T. J. Hurley (now UPC in Leesburg, FL) preached an illustrated message - with dirt, mud, slop, in a mudhole in front of the pulpit and his title was "GIVING THE PIGS A PERMANENT WAVE"! It was incredible and stuck with me from then 1983 or 84 until now. He is a powerful preacher!

He got IN the pig pen with his nice suit & white shirt and got mud and slop all over him. It was INCREDIBLE! NEVER FORGOT IT!

Search the receses of your mind and share with us the content of the message.

I think you can find him in your UPC DIRECTORY! LOL
Call him and get the message from him - I am sure he would be honored!

I don't have a directory.
