The Bishop and the
Pastor
Topics: Jokes, Sermon
The pastor in a small village church was renowned for his boring speeches, so the congregation quite often fell asleep during his sermons. When the bishop visited him, he complained of this to him.
- Well, the bishop said. From time to time I have had the same problem. I then start to tell them that one time in my life I have been lying at the breast of a woman who was not my wife... When they look at me with large eyes, I say to them : It was when I was a baby and was lying at my mothers breast.
The pastor found this to be a good advice, and thought he would use it the next time.
True enough, the next sunday, the congregation drifted into half sleep, and the pastor said :
- One time in my life I have been lying at the breast of a woman who was not my wife..., and the congregation looked at him in astonishment.
...... but now I cannot remember who ......???
.... - Oh yes, It was the bishops mother!!
