Save Your Fork!

There's an old story about an elderly woman who was told by her  physician that she probably wouldn't live much longer. Soon thereafter,  she called in her family to discuss her funeral arrangements. They  talked about how the service would be, where she would be buried, what  kind of casket would be used, etc. As the conversation was winding  down, the woman remarked, "There's one thing that's very important: I  want to be buried with a fork in my right hand."

What Kind of Jesus Do You Want?

We have a great coffee maker at work. You make one cup of your  personal favorite drink at a time. You can have any number of different  kinds of coffee, tea, or hot chocolate. Even better, you can brew your  cup at whatever strength you desire: weak, medium, or strong. You can  make it caffeinated, or decaf. And it only takes about one minute to  make. If Christians could ever present Christianity like that, we could  interest a lot more people. Christianity in small doses… however you  want it at any particular time. If you are feeling particularly  religious, you can get a strong dose of Jesus one day. If not, go a  little weaker. Jesus to suit your taste – just like you want him to be.
