Gone But Not Forgotten
This is a story about a popular young preacher, who on
Sunday morning announces to the congregation that he
will not renew his contract, and is moving on to a larger
congregation that will pay him more.
There is a hush. No one wants him to leave.
Bubba, who owns several car dealerships, stands up and
announces, "Ithe preacher stays, I'll provide him with a new
sedan every year, and his lovely wife with a mini-van, to
transport their children!" The congregation sighs, and
applauds. Billy Bob, the entrepreneur and investor, stands
and says, "If the preacher stays, I'll double his salary, and
establish a foundation to guarantee the college education
of his children!!" More sighs and applause.
Ms. Ella May, aged 73, stands and announces, "If the
preacher stays, I'll give him SEX!" There is a hush.
The preacher, blushing, asks, " Ella May, whatever
possessed you to say that?" Ella May answers, "I just
asked My husband how we could help, and he said,
"Screw the preacher!"
