Here is today's Illustration. For those of you on this list who aren't
pastors, some of these may seem like excuses no one would give but trust me,
people have tried to pass off even dumber excuses for not attending church.
I even had one couple arrive at church about 20 minutes late one Sunday only
to explain after the service that they had stopped for a garage sale on the
way to church. So much for putting Jesus first.MORE
