Children in church

The minister was in the pulpit to begin his sermon. He starts out with "Without our Lord and Savior we are nothing but dust". At this point it was the quietest moment in the church and a little girl looks up at her mommy with a booming voice and says "mommy, what is Butt Dust?"

That's one great

will use in sunday school class

When my son was learning to talk, we lived with my parents, sister, and cousins (such a crowded house). We had a total of 5 dogs, all of whom loved to bark at the mailman. They'd make so much noise that somebody would eventually yell "SHUT UP" to quiet them, and it always worked. It got to be a habit that whenever there was a lot of noise of ANY kind, someone would yell out those two magical words. So one Sunday evening, we were in church. Now, up till that time, Charlie (my son) had never put two words together. Well, the pastor got to preaching hot and heavy, really calling down some fire, and he got extremely loud. At that moment, Charlie decided to do what we always do for loud noises. He stood up on the seat and yelled out "SHUT UP!!!!!!!" Fortunately for me, it wasn't all that understandable, but every mom in the church understood him and they all laughed. I was sooooooo embarrassed. Then the funny side struck me and I laughed till I cried. Thank God for a sense of humor!!
