OUT OF THE MOUTH OF ADULTS

As the pastor shook hands with the congregation leaving the church a little
boy looked up with a closed fist said, "Here, I have something for you." The
pastor opened his hand and the little boy dropped a quarter in the pastor's
hand. Not wanting to hurt the boy's feeling he simply smiled and said,
"Thank you." Well, it did not end, the next Sunday and the next -- the same
thing. Finally, the pastor could not take it any more; he had to know what
was up. He called the boy aside and talked with him, "I really appreciate
the gifts but why are you doing it?" "Well" said the boy, "I just wanted to
help you --- my dad says you are the poorest preacher we have ever had."
