Two elderly southern women were sitting together in the front pew listening to a fiery preacher

He was banging the pulpit and the ladies were cheering him on

When he condemned the sin of stealing the two church ladies cried out loudly “AMEN BROTHER”

When he condemned the sin of lust they yelled again

“PREACH IT, PREACH IT!”

And when he spoke out against lying the jumped to their feet and screamed “RIGHT ON, BROTHER! TELL IT LIKE IT IS…AMEN!”

But when the preacher-man condemned the sin of gossip the two got very quiet

One lady turned to the other and said

“Well, he’s done quit preachin’. Now he’s just meddlin’”

What sin shuts you up this morning?
