Selling Bibles For The Church
A minister concluded that his church was getting into serious financial troubles.
However, while checking the church storeroom he discovered several cartons of new bibles that had never been opened and distributed.
So, on Sunday he asked the congregation for three volunteers who would sell the bibles door-to-door for $10 each to raise the desperately needed money.
Peter, Paul and Louie all raised their hands to volunteer for the task.
The reverend knew that Peter and Paul earned their living as salesmen and were capable of selling bibles but he had serious doubts about Louie.
Louie was just a little local farmer who had always kept to himself because he was embarrassed about his speech impediment.
Poor Louis stuttered badly. But, not wanting to discourage poor Louis, the reverend decided to let him try anyway.
He sent them off with their cars loaded with bibles and asked them to meet with him to report the results of their door-to-door sell
