At church yesterday, our summer seminary intern served as liturgist.  He’s really good, and has a real pulpit presence.  I hope I get a chance to hear him preach sometime soon.  He’s also doing a great job working with the youth group and he’s on my new committee.  In addition to being a seminary student, he’s also a member of our congregation.

After the service he and I were talking in Fellowship Hall.  A “little old lady” walked up to his side, grabbed his upper arm and squeezed, and said, “Have you felt his muscles?”

After a blink, we both answered simultaneously:
Him:  No, we haven’t really had the opportunity ….
Me:  Thanks, but maybe some other time ….

You see, he’s young (mid-20’s, I think) and athletic.  He was a wrestler at some point.

God bless little old ladies, who can get away with things that the rest of us can’t.
