One of the misconceptions about being a Christian is non-Christians think we don’t know how to have fun or have a sense of humor. Trust me, if the Big Guy can have a sense of humor when it comes to dealing with us mere mortals, so can we.

The difference for Christians is we don’t have to debase ourselves or others to generate a smile. Laughter at life or ourselves is a gift from God.

Here’s this week’s edition of Midweek Mirth  … so let’s smile a little!

The Getaways

At the company water cooler, a guy bragged about his children’s world travels. One son was teaching in Bolivia, another was working in southern Italy, and his daughter was completing a year-long research project in India. One co-worker’s quip, however, stopped him short. “What is it about you,” he asked, “that makes your kids want to get so far away?”

… Some kids have gone back to school, others are heading there, and still others will go back online. So this week’s bonus is for them! …

First Day of School

A child comes home from his first day at school. His mother asks, “Well, what did you learn today?”

The kid replies, “Not enough. They want me to come back tomorrow.”
