Thursday Special ~ Gone Fishing
A recently ordained pastor was invited fishing by two senior pastors. They rowed their boat out into the middle of a lake and started casting.
Suddenly, one of the senior pastors says, “I forgot my bait. I’ll be right back.” Then he hops out of the boat, walks across the water to shore. A few minutes later, he comes walking back and gets in the boat.
The junior pastor is astonished, but manages to keep it to himself.
A bit later, the other senior pastor says, “I forgot my sunscreen. I’ll be right back.” Then he hops out of the boat, walks across the water to shore. A few minutes later, he comes walking back and gets in the boat.
The junior pastor is now certain that these are two men of supreme faith. However, he doesn’t want to appear less spiritual.
After a few moments, the junior pastor says, “I forgot my lunch. I’ll be right back.” He hops out of the boat and plunges straight to the bottom of the lake.
One senior pastor turns to the other and says, “We probably should have told him about the stepping stones.”
