Stuttering Man Selling Bibles
A young man was inspired to help with his church’s fundraiser.
He asked the preacher if he could go door to door selling Bibles.
The preacher agreed, but knowing that the young man stuttered, he gave him only 3 Bibles to sell.
The next day, the young man returned and asked for more.
The preacher gave him 5 more.
The next day the preacher gave him 10 more.
By the end of the week, the young man had broken the church record for the most Bibles sold in a week.
The preacher believed that divine intervention had taken place. He was amazed and wanted to know the young man’s secret.
So the preacher asked the young man how he was able to sell so many Bibles in such a short time.
The young man smiled and said,
“I asked them if they wanted to buy a Bible or if they wanted me to read it to them.
They Say Men Don’t Listen To Women
A man asked his wife what she wanted for her 40th birthday.
“I’d like to be six again,” she replied.
On the morning of her birthday, he woke her up early and they went to a local amusement park.
What a day! He took her on every ride in the park: Death Slide, Scream Loop, Wall of Horror, everything! Wow!
Five hours later, dizzy and sick to his stomach, he staggered out of the amusement park.
They went straight to McDonald’s and her husband ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a refreshing chocolate shake.
Then they went to the movies – it was the latest Disney movie and what an amazing adventure!
Finally, she returned home with her husband and collapsed on the bed.
Her husband leaned over and asked her affectionately: “So, honey, what was it like to be six years old again?”
The woman looked up wearily and said;
“You fool, I meant my dress size.”
The moral of the story is this:
If a woman speaks and a man is really listening, he will still misunderstand.
