Story by Steadfast:
Kind of like the Youth Camp I preached a few years ago in a super duper ultra conservative environment when the 55 (or so) year old 'Principle' of the camp got up right before I preached and was giving them the 'campground conduct code'. He said, (and, yes, I'm serious) "We're going to respect the House of God by utilizing a proper dress code to these night services. For example, I want every girl in the building wearing thongs to stand up right now...."

Obviously he meant what we call 'flip flops' but he insisted one progressing in that vein by saying, "Come on now, I've been looking closely at some of you and there are more thongs still sitting in those pews!"

My youngest son, who was sitting beside me on the front row, said, "Oh Lord, Dad! What in the world is he doing!" I said, "Son, he's talking about 'flip flops'." My son - MUCH younger at the time - leaned down like he was picking up his Bible and said, "They aren't wearing flip flops, Dad!"

Ironically, just as I wanted to kill my son, the man in the pulpit said, "There will be NO thongs in the evening services! If you have to wear thongs then stop on your way in, pull them off and leave them in a pile at the front door!"

Yep, it was pretty much over at that very moment.

My brothers and I used to sing as a Trio and we started singing when we were quite young. We used to sing a song that some of the words stated that "many are called but few are chosen. I can't even remember all the words now, but we used to live in the cold cold northeast. There was one Sunday that it was sooooo cold the furnace was having a very hard time to keep up with heating the building. Well, my brothers and I used to goof around with this song and sing the words, many are cold but few are frozen. We used to tell ourselves to stop or we would sing those words sometime in church when we didn't mean to. Well guess what? On this very coincidental Sunday Morning we were in the upstairs part of the church to be warmer although it was not helping much. We were singing this song and at least 2 of us sang the wrong words. We may as well have just sat down cause we didn't get anything out of the song after that. We have never forgotten it and it is a memory with mentioning any time we get together which is not nearly often enough.

Okay, her's my story:
I remember when I was 2 or 3 years old, I was sitting in momma's lap, when this other sister in the church who had a daughter about my age accidently lifted her dress for me to see. When I saw the ruffles on her undergarment, I laughed so hard that my mother had to leave the sanctuary to calm me down, after a good while she came back to the same pew. The sister that was sitting next to us knew why i was laughing, so she let me once again see the girl's ruffles, I laughed so hard that she had to leave church that night. I don't know why I would remember something like that, I'm not even sure why I thought it was funny then.
