Old Lutheran Humor The Preacher's Lament This is what your Pastor really thinks... • If I express myself on a subject, I'm trying to run things. • If I'm silent, I'm dumb or have lost interest. • If I'm often at my office (preparing sermons or studying), why don't I get out and learn what's going on. • If I'm out when they call, why am I not tending to business, or studying for a sermon. • If I'm not at home at night, I'm out having a good time. • If I'm home, I'm neglecting important outside contacts and activities. • If I don't agree with people, I'm bullheaded. • If I do agree, I don't have any ideas of my own. • If I don't do what I'm asked, I'm a poor pastor. • If I do agree, well, that's what I'm paid for. • If I give someone a short answer, I'm "too big for my britches." • If I attempt to explain the pros and cons of an issue, I'm a know it all. • If I'm well dressed, I'm a big shot. • If I'm not, I'm a poor representative of my office. • If I'm on the job a short time, I'm inexperienced. • If I've been there a long time, It's time for a change. |
