THE GOOD SAMARITAN
A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the Good
Samaritan, in which a man was beaten, robbed and left for dead. She
described the
situation in vivid detail so her students would catch the drama. Then,
she asked
the class, "If you saw a person lying on the roadside, all wounded and
bleeding,
what would you do?" A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence,
"I
think I'd throw up."
STORY OF ELIJAH
The Sunday school teacher was carefully explaining the story of Elijah
the
Prophet and the false prophets of Baal. She explained how Elijah built
the
altar, put wood upon it, cut the steer in pieces, and laid it upon the
altar. And
then, Elijah commanded the people of God to fill four barrels of water
and pour
it over the altar. He had them do this four times. "Now," said the
teacher,"
can anyone in the class tell me why the Lord would have Elijah pour
water over
the steer on the altar?" A little girl in the back of the room started
waving
her hand, "I know, I know," she said, "to make the gravy!"
LOT'S WIFE
The Sunday school teacher was describing how Lot's wife looked back and
turned into a pillar of salt, when little Johnny interrupted, "My Mummy
looked back
once, while she was DRIVING," he announced triumphantly, "and she
turned into
a telephone pole!"
DID NOAH FISH?
A Sunday school teacher asked, "Johnny, do you think Noah did a lot of
fishing when he was on the Ark?" "No," replied Johnny. "How could he,
with just two
worms."
POOR LION
A Sunday school teacher was telling the youngsters about Daniel and the
Lion's Den. She had a picture of Daniel standing, brave and confident,
with a group
of lions around him. One little girl started to cry. The teacher said,
"Don't
cry. The lions are not going to eat Daniel." The girl said, "That's not
what
I'm crying about. That little lion, over in the corner, isn't going to
get any
food."
HIGHER POWER
A Sunday school teacher said to her children, "We have been learning
how
powerful kings and queens were in Bible times. But, there is a higher
power. Can
anybody tell me what it is?" One child blurted out, "Aces!"
SUNDAY SCHOOL
Nine year old Joey, was asked by his mother what he had learned in
Sunday
school. "Well, Mom, our teacher told us how God sent Moses behind enemy
lines on
a rescue mission to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. When he got to
the Red
Sea, he had his engineers build a pontoon bridge and all the people
walked
across safely. Then, he used his walkie-talkie to radio headquarters
for
reinforcements. They sent bombers to blow up the bridge and all the
Israelites were
saved." "Now, Joey, is that really what your teacher taught you?" his
mother
asked." Well, no, Mom. But, if I told it the way the teacher did, you'd
never
believe it!"
THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD
A Sunday School teacher decided to have her young class memorize one of
the
most quoted passages in the Bible; Psalm23. She gave the youngsters a
month to
learn the verse. Little Bobby was excited about the task. But, he just
couldn't remember the Psalm. After much practice, he could barely get
past the first
line. On the day that the kids were scheduled to recite Psalm 23 in
front of
the congregation, Bobby was real nervous. When it was his turn, he
stepped up
to the microphone and said proudly, "The Lord is my shepherd and that's
all I
need to know!"
Amen to that!!!
