Thanks so much for tuning in and thank you again for coming out today.

I like to start with something funny and I heard about this man.

He was the only Protestant in a large Catholic neighborhood.

Every Friday during Lent, while his neighbors were eating cold fish,

he was grilling a steak in the backyard.

They couldn't stand the temptation and decided to try to convert him to Catholicism.

He finally agreed.

The priest sprinkled water over him, said, you were born a Baptist, you were raised a Baptist.

Now you're a Catholic.

The next year on the first Friday of Lent, they smelled the same smell in the air.

They rushed his house.

He was in the backyard sprinkling water over his steak.

Saying, you were born a cow, you were raised a cow, but now you're a fish.

Hold your Bible up.

Say it like you mean it.
