• Overheard in the Bookshop

    The scene is a very busy bookshop. A bepigtailed elderwoman protagonist approaches the information desk. She pauses for a moment and then asks…

    “Excuse me, Religion is…?”

    Her bearded interlocutor pauses for a moment and then replies….

    “Religion is in the gold room, just up the stairs.”

    He pauses once again, and then asks, “Or were you looking for a more esoteric answer?”

    Even if the response is abuse, at least you know the sermon has been  heard or read and absorbed.  I would imagine that this is more fulfilling than preaching weekly with no idea whether anyone is even taking notice.

    Praise has also come with the abuse and it's interesting to note who are the abusers.  Get well soon and give us some more sermons to think about.
