From The Mouth of Babes

Question and Answers

A teacher from a Christian school finished the lesson for the day. It was now time for question and answers.

“Teacher?” ask little John, “I have a question that has been bothering me for a long time.”

“What’s that?” The teacher ask

“Well, according to the bible, the Children crossed the Red Sea, right?”

“That’s right.”

“And the Children of Israel put a whipping on the Philistines, right?”

“Yeah.”

“The Children of Israel also built the temple?”

“That’s right.”

“They also fought the Egyptians, fought the Romans, and were always doing something important, right”

The teacher becoming a little annoyed said, “That’s correct, now what is your answer?”

“What I’d like to know,” he demanded. “What were all the grown-ups doing?”

Hushers

Six-year-old Angie and her four-year-old brother Joel were sitting together in church. Joel giggled, sang, and talked out loud.

Finally, his big sister had enough. “You’re not supposed to talk out loud in church.” “Why? Who’s going to stop me?” Joel asked.

Angie pointed to the back of the church and said, “See those two men standing by the door? They’re hushers.”
