this may be hard to believe but I'm a nice guy. i respect people and love to laugh.
i treat problems like water ona duck's back.
so we go into this Christian church and it's "men only" night.
It ended up being 3 of us plus the pastor.
We introduced oursleves and the "sermon" went on.
So this pastor is talking about how there are few men in church nowadays.
He starts preaching and getting loud. I was like "geeez maybe thats his style."
Then he starts talking about how men are dogs and are constantly distracted. We chase money and women.
i was like "huh?"
then he was saying things like "us men love to look at women at church and concentrate on them more than the word." I wondered if that was him because I dont feel that.
If someone would of looked at me last night...there would have been a look of confusion over my face.
Then he wanted us to get up and testify of our struggles and "reach out."
Well, the 3rd guy got up and spoiled his business in front of us.
The pastor looked at my friend and I and asked if we have anything to add.
I was like "no." He said "are you sure because we're not all perfect."
I was like "nope. the problems that you, or men, may be struggling with I do not have."
needless to say, he knew my friend and I needed more than a hootin and hollerin sermon. I know we made him uncomfortable that I can see it in his body language. I could see his sweat and hear him stutter at times. He started mixing in his resume of experience in his sermon. What he did and where and how he studies. I knew it was odd for us anyways.
Soon as my friend and I stepped in the car we laughed all the way home. yes we laughed...we're sick like that.
I'm going to pray for him and his church.
The funny thing is that we never criticized or poked fun. We never showed disrespect to his church but you can tell he caught a weirdness about us that he couldnt adapt to. dunno.....
