Look
Rev. Clyde Lee Herring, when pastor in Woodlands, Texas, must have looked impressive as he stepped into the spotlight in the baptistry. From the darkness of the auditorium a wide-eyed kid squealed, "Look! There's GOD!" Use it: As a humorous illustration by an introduction of a sermon series about the nature of God, or beside an announcement of a baptismal service.

Stingy
Martha Magee, Dallas, Texas, took a three-year-old to her first "big church" service -- a Lord's Supper observance. As they left, the child's critique was, "All I've got to say is, they sure are stingy with their refreshments in there!" Use it: To accompany an article welcoming a new group of children to their first service in "big church," or for an announcement about a Lord's Supper service.

Bend
Pastor David York had the daunting task of baptizing a 6-foot, 5-inch basketball player one night. The kid was scared to death of water. York enlisted the aid of a deacon, who was instructed to stand beside him in the baptistry. "If he 'freezes up,'" he said, "just give him a little kick behind the knees to help bend him back." Well, the kid did 'freeze up.' The deacon kicked and kicked to force him to bend. Finally, in desperation, Pastor York tried to swing his leg on top of the kid to push while the deacon kicked ... and all three of them went under! Use it: As a spot illustration for a service honoring athletes or for an announcement about a baptismal service.

Fing
Rev. Fred Marks, an Oklahoma pastor, in the midst of his very first wedding said, "You may now put the fing on her ringer." Jacquita Duncan told me about this one just in time to draw it, autograph the original, and ship it the Freddie and Winona in time for their 50th anniversary the first week of June! Use it: As a humorous illustration with a promotion about a Christian Home Week sermon. Use it: Let it draw attention to a list of couples celebrating their "Big 50" or an article announcing multiple wedding ceremonies.
