One liners you remember from Ministers

[Ferd]

My dad has never preached a sermon but he said something to me that has been the key to my life in ministering to people.

He said:

Son, if you are going to work with people, remember that first, they are people and therefore they will always disappoint you. Your job is to love them anyway.

My dad has always said something remarkably similar!

Also, while preaching, he often says, "let me saddle that one up, and ride it by you again".

Preaching about unity, my pastor would say, "Remember the banana that's taken out of the bunch is the one that gets peeled."

Interesting thought.

TFT (talking to bible school preacher wanna-bees) "If you can't strike oil in 30 minutes, quit boring!"

On a plaque on a pulpit - Better to leave them wanting more, than wishing you had quit long before!

Dan Scott - "Don't eat the worms!"

My FIL, who was killed on the mission field, had a plaque on his pulpit that said "Sirs, we would see Jesus." Many years later, Eddie was presented with a pulpit with that same inscription.
