A man and his wife were having an argument about who should brew the coffee each morning.The wife said, "You should do it, because you get up first, and then we
don't have to wait as long to get our coffee".  The husband said, " You are in charge of the cooking around here and you should do it, because that is your job, and I can just wait for  my coffee."

Wife replies, "No you should do it, and besides it is in the Bible that the man should do the coffee."  Husband replies, " I can't believe that, show me."

So she fetched the Bible, and opened the New Testament and shows him at the top of several pages, that it indeed says ......."HEBREWS"
 

A little child in church for the first time watched as the ushers passed the offering plates.  When they neared the pew where he sat, the youngster piped up so that everyone could hear:  "Don't pay for me Daddy,  I'm under five."

A little boy was attending his first wedding.  After the service,  his cousin asked him,  "How many women can a man marry?"  "Sixteen,"  the boy responded.  His cousin was amazed that he had an answer so quickly.  "How do you know that?"  "Easy,"  the little boy said.  "All you have to do is add it up,  like the Bishop said: 4 better, 4 worse, 4 richer, 4 poorer."

After a church service on Sunday morning,  a young boy suddenly announced to his mother,  "Mom,  I've decided to become a minister when I grow up."  "That's okay with us, but what made you decide that?"  "Well," said the little boy,  "I have to go to church on Sunday anyway,  and I figure it will be more fun to stand up and yell,  than to sit and listen."

A 6-year-old was overheard reciting the Lord's Prayer at a church service:  "And forgive us our trash passes, as we forgive those who passed trash against us."

A boy was watching his father,  a pastor,  write a sermon. " How do you know what to say?"  he asked. "Why, God tells me." "Oh,  then why do you keep crossing things out?"

After the christening of his baby brother in church,  little Johnny sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car.  His father asked him three times what was wrong.  Finally,  the boy replied,  "That priest said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home,  and I want to stay with you guys!"

Ms. Terri asked her Sunday School class to draw pictures of their favorite Bible stories.  She was puzzled by Kyle's picture,  which showed four people on an airplane,  so she asked him which story it was meant to represent.  "The flight to Egypt,"  said Kyle.  "I see ... And that must be Mary,  Joseph,  and Baby Jesus, " Ms. Terri said.  "But who's the fourth person?"  "Oh, that's Pontius - the Pilot.

A college drama group presented a play in which one character would stand on a trap door and announce,  "I descend into hell!"  A stagehand below would then pull a rope,  the trapdoor would open,  and the character would plunge through.  The play was well received.  When the actor playing the part became ill,   another actor who was quite over- weight took his place.  When the new actor announced,  "I descend into hell!" the stagehand pulled the rope,  and the actor began his plunge,  but became hopelessly stuck.  No amount of tugging on the rope could make him descend.  One student in the balcony jumped up and yelled:  "Hallelujah!  Hell is full!"

Pastor Dave Charlton tells us,  "After a worship service at First Baptist Church in Newcastle, Kentucky,  a mother with a fidgety seven-year old boy told me how she finally got her son to sit still and be quiet.  About halfway through the sermon,  she leaned over and whispered,  'If you don't be quiet,   Pastor Charlton is going to lose his place and will have to start his sermon all over again!'  It worked."

A little girl was sitting on her grandfather's lap as he read her a bedtime story.  From time to time,  she would take her eyes off the book and reach up to touch his wrinkled cheek.  She was alternately stroking her own cheek,  then his again.  Finally she spoke up, "Grandpa,  did God make you?"  "Yes,  sweetheart,"  he answered,  "God made me a long time ago."  "Oh,"  she paused,  "Grandpa,  did God make me too?"  "Yes, indeed,  honey,"  he said,  "God made you just a little while ago. " Feeling their respective faces again,  she observed,  "God's getting better at it,  isn't he?"

A man was walking in the street when he heard a voice:  ''Stop!  Stand still!  If you take one more step,  a brick will fall down on your head and kill you.''  The man stopped and a big brick fell right in front of him.  The man was astonished.  He went on,  and after awhile he was going to cross the road.  Once again the voice shouted: ''Stop!  Stand still!  If you take one more step a car will run over you and you will die.''   The man did as he was instructed,  just as a car came careening around the corner,  barely missing him.  ''Where are you?''  the man asked.  ''Who are you?''  ''I am your guardian angel,''  the voice answered.  ''Oh yeah?''  the man asked...  ''And where were you when I got married?''

I had been teaching my three-year old daughter, Caitlin, the Lord's Prayer for several evenings at
bedtime, she would repeat after me the lines from The prayer. Finally, she decided to go solo. I listened with pride as she carefully enunciated each word, right up to the end of the prayer: "Lead us not into temptation," she prayed, "but deliver us some E-mail. Amen."

and one particular four-year-old prayed, "And  forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets."

A Sunday school teacher asked her children, as they were on the way to church service, "And why is it necessary to be quiet in church? One bright little girl replied, "Because people are sleeping."

Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother Joel were sitting together in church. Joel giggled, sang, and talked out loud. Finally, his big sister had had enough. "You're not supposed to talk out loud in church." "Why? Who's going to stop me?" Joel asked. Angie pointed to the back of the church and said, "See those two men standing by the door?  They're  hushers."

A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons, Kevin,  5,Ryan, 3. The boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson.

"Just say what you hear Mommy say," the wife answered. The daughter bowed her head and said, "Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?"
