I was standing in line at Zaxby's last Sunday night. I loudly said to the lady standing in the line ordering, "Hey lady, hurry up. You're holding up the line!" The man standing just in front of me turned around and had a look of horror on his face as if to say, I know you just didn't tell that lady to hurry up.
I just smiled at him and said, "That's my pastor's wife!" And I laughed loudly.
He began to laugh along when he understood my joke. We talked about how Zaxbys was a good chicken place, then about how I was just going out to eat with church folks and before he even got his own food I handed him a church card and invited him out to church.
When I invited him out, a big smile came to his face as he said, "I just might do that!" Apparently he recently moved into my area and was potentially looking for a church family.
It's not a big thing, I was just showing friendliness to a stranger.
It was just a 2 or 3 minute conversation, but who knows.
