The new minister stood at the church door greeting the members as they left the Sunday morning service. Most of the people were very generous telling the new minister how much they liked his message, except for one man who said, “The was a very dull and boring sermon, pastor.” A few minutes later, the same man again appeared in line and said, “I don’t think you did much preparation for your message.” Once again, the man appeared, this time muttering, “You really blew it. You didn’t have a thing to say, pastor.” Finally, the minister could stand it no longer. He went to one of the deacons and inquired about the man. “Oh, don’t let that guy bother you,” said the deacon. “He’s a little off. All he does is go around repeating whatever he hears other people saying.” 1 John 3:18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

Q: I tend to react to poison ivy and vaguely recall that you had an article about preventing it last spring. I haven’t been able to find that information; would it be possible to send the paper another copy of the article? The steroid medication my doctor prescribed for it last year helped, but I had some side effects that make me more interested in preventing the problem in the first place.
