You Might Find This Amusing ...
Recently, a youth from the church in which I serve was accusing me of not using the Bible when I taught.
There were people in the church who learned of this and, naturally, became concerned over what I was teaching.
...
It turns out that the youth was complaining that I too often put the scripture for Wednesday night lessons on power point and did not actually open a Bible to read the scripture directly from it.
I actually thought the whole matter was funny. I wasn't worried about the initial charge because I knew the accusations were bogus. Why should I worry? I simply said, "Well, I keep all my lessons saved on power point. You can look over them and see how much Bible I use."
I actually felt honored. "What happened to the Southern Baptist seminary professors during the Conservative Resurgence is now happening to me! Whoopee!"
