They Needed to Hear It!

I heard a story about a man who never misses a worship service. After each service, he tells the pastor, "You told them! They needed to hear it." One service he's the only person at church. The pastor happens to have prepared a sermon about humility. When the service ends the man tells the pastor, "Too bad they didn't come. They needed to hear it." (Ciona D.
