Joke: Disappointment is one of those emotions we would rather avoid. A small-town prosecuting attorney called his first witness to the stand in a trial -- a grand-motherly, elderly woman.
He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"
She responded, "Why, yes, I do know you, Mr.

We had a friend one time, a lovely and hospitable woman, who would often have us over for dinner. And she was a great cook. But I couldn’t enjoy her desserts, especially her cakes. She always made them without salt. I don’t exactly know what salt does in a cake recipe, but I know that, when it’s

Ravi Zacharias tells of visiting a used bookstore. While he was there, wistfully searching through the classics, suddenly a man burst in and demanded in a loud voice, "How much for 128 feet of books?" The owner, having never sold scholarship by the foot, didn’t know exactly how to reply.

SEEING--AND BELIEVING
Two children were playing on a hillside, when they noticed that the hour was nearing sunset, and one said, wonderingly: "See how far the sun has gone! A little while ago it was right over that tree, and now it is low down in the sky."
"Only it isn’t the sun that moves; it’s

PROOF OF WHO HE IS
This reminds me of the three lunatics in an insane asylum: The first lunatic said to the second, "Did you know that I'm Napoleon Bonaparte?"
Indignantly, the second lunatic replied, "I beg your pardon! It just so happens that I am Napoleon Bonaparte!"
The first one said, "Oh

STEP BY STEP
He does not lead me year by year
Nor even day by day,
But step by step my path unfolds;
My Lord directs my way.
Tomorrow’s plans I do not know,
I only know this minute;
But He will say, "This is the way,
By faith now walk in it."
And I am glad that it is so,
Today’s enough to

JESUS, MONEY & STUFF
I want us to note this: When people came to Jesus, Jesus never, never, gave them money. He never gave them stuff. And yet, what do we ask for? Stuff. How ridiculous. So then, isn’t it obvious? If Jesus never gave anyone money… or stuff, while he was walking the earth in His
