You’re driving a bus for Sunday school. At your first stop you pick up 7 kids. At the next stop you pick up 4 kids and at the next stop 6 kids. You drop them all off and go out for more. The next three stops you get 5 kids each and the last stop 2, and actually drop off 3. How old is the driver?
I’ve entitled this sermon Are You Paying Attention. Were you paying attention during the story? Well, I will answer the riddle later on – I probably made a mistake because now you are going to thinking about that riddle the whole time, but you better Pay Attention. (later in the sermon I gave the answer, if you paid attention to the story you would have heard that YOU were driving the bus, the driver is you, so the age is your age)
