"Oh, yes, I remember Dave Hunt writing a good book on this subject..."

"Have you accepted Jesus in your heart to be your personal Lord and Saviour? Pray with me..."

"And he walks with me and he talks with me..."

"When I went down for the altar call this morning..."

"So, bob, how are you with the Lord?"

"John who?"

I'm reading all these things. Am I on the PB? Where am I? I'm confused now. All these things I thought I'd never find here, and here they are, all in one thread.

I need to go back to bed and try getting up again. I'm just having a bad day, I think.

1) "I love doing my grocery shopping each and every Sunday."

2) "There's no better faith booster than a bumper sticker!"

3) "Alrighty...now where did I put the directions for my spiritual breakthrough? Ah yes, here it is: How to Reverse the Curse for dummies"

4) "I just don't really feel balanced...I know there's a book that can help with that. Ah, here it is, a Puritan Paperback, that will keep the dining table from wobbling! Finally, I can put that book to good use."

5) "Okay, got the lights down low...check! Spotlight...check! A little mood music...check! Neon lights....are those burnt out? Neon lights? There they are *click*...check! That takes care of it, all the necessary elements for church. Wow, God really loves our innovation, doesn't He?"

Did you know Arminius was Reformed too?

I'm not into all these "isms" - I just believe the Bible.

I was thinking we need to modernize our worship service so the gospel will be relevant to this generation.

This weeks youth group meeting is a hang-out-a-thon at the 7-11. Bring money for slurpees.

Draught Horse and I have said this to each other before.

He's going to kill me for admitting this, but we were there the Sunday before Christmas...

Well, it's not like they preach the Federal Vision every Sunday. In fact, Steve Wilkins hasn't even been preaching the last two times I was there. And they do properly administer the sacrament of the Lord's Supper every Sunday. Besides, where else are we going to go in Monroe, Louisiana?

Now that all these things that you will never hear on the PB have been heard on the PB I am a bit suspicious.

It is my opinion that, like a rabbi eating a pork rind when no one is looking, many of you got some perverse pleasure out of sharing these wayward musings. Shame on you! I'll light a candle for you.
