Hi, this is Joel in Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoyed today's message,

why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

God bless you and thanks for spending this time with us.

We pray and for God's very best for you and your family.

But I like to start with something funny and I heard about this minister that died.

He was standing at the pearly gates.

The man in front of him was dressed in a loud t-shirt, sunglasses, and blue jeans.

St. Peter asked him his name.

He said, I'm Joe Cohen, taxi cab driver, New York City.

Peter checked his list, handed him a gold staff and silk robe and said, welcome to heaven.

The minister stepped up, said, I'm Reverend Joseph Snow, pastor of St. Mary's Cathedral.

Peter checked his list and handed him a wooden staff and cotton robe.

He said, wait a minute.

This couldn't be right.

The taxi cab driver got a gold staff and this is all I get.

Peter said, sir, up here we work by results.

When you preached, people slept, but when he drove, people prayed.

Come on, say it like you mean it.

This is my Bible.
