I like to start with something funny and I heard about these three sons that left home and went out and prospered.

They got back together to talk about the gifts they bought their elderly mother.

The first son said, I built mom a big house.

The second one said, I got her a fancy car.

The third son said, since mom loves to read the Bible, but she can barely see anymore,

I got her especially trained parrot that can quote the entire Bible.

A few months later, they received a letter from their mother.

It said, Milton, the house you built me is way too big.

Gerald, the car you bought me is way too small, but my dearest Donald, your simple gift is my favorite.

The chicken was delicious.

Say it like you mean it.

This is my Bible.

I am what it says I am.

I have what it says I have.

I can do what it says I can do.
