Murphy’s Law Goes to Church

Seems like it never fails…

• Projectors always work before the class or meeting begins.
• The probability of the preacher tripping over the mic cord is greater on “Bring A Friend” Sunday than any other week.
• The likelihood of a child’s giving a humorous response is directly proportional to the seriousness of the discussion.
• The largest Bible class will show up when the teacher feels his/her worst.
• No matter how many bulletins you print, you’ll always need one more.
• Member living 15 miles away will be 15 minutes early; members living two blocks away will be 15 minutes late.
• Saying “Let us pray” or singing  “Just As I Am” causes babies to cry.
• The shorter the agenda, the longer the  business meeting.
• When you answer the Bible teacher’s question right, nobody remembers; when you’re wrong, nobody forgets.
• The longest Scripture readings always come with the longest sermons.
• The furnace only fails when the outside temperature is more than 20 degrees below zero. The air conditioner only fails when the outside temperature is 90 degrees or above.
• When the preacher misspeaks in a sermon, at least half of those taking notes will write the remark down as an important thought from the sermon.
