Funny Things Preachers Have Said

[KeptByTheWord]

I remember a wonderful European man who was ministering at our church for a time who had a heavy German accent. One night, after he had preached his message, he went on to remind the congregation for an upcoming event where he said "Don't miss it, there will be food, fun, and fornication (he meant to say fortification) .... there was a dead awful silence in the building as he looked around in surprise, completely bewildered by the stunned looks on everyone's faces... it took him a few minutes to hear someone say fortification, not fornication... what a great laugh for all of us then as he realized his mistake, and what a way to invite everyone to the next fellowship. I don't think anyone in the building that night will ever forget it.... and we probably all made it to that event after that memorable invitation!!!! LOL!
