Head Hog
The church secretary answered the phone and then heard a very countryfied voice on the other end saying, "I want to talk to the head hog at the trough!"
Puzzled, the secretary said, "Excuse me sir?"
"I said I want to talk to the head hog at the trough!"
She then realized what the man wanted. He wanted to talk to the pastor. Somewhat indignant she said, "Sir if you want to talk to our pastor, you will have to address him properly. You should call him Pastor, or Reverend, or Brother, but you certainly cannot refer to him as the Head Hog at the Trough!"
The man on the other end said in a country drawl, "Oh, I just wanted to donate $10,000 to the church."
The secretary promptly replied with friendly enthusiasm, "Can you hold please, I think the big pig just walked through the door!"
I find that funny! It also reminds me of these words from James 2.
My brothers and sisters, believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ must not show favoritism.
Have a great weekend, and go to church for Heaven’s sake!
