Top Ten
Disqualifying Questions
for an Elder Candidate
by Robert Barnes and R.C. Sproul Jr.
10. Did you guys love the last issue of ETC, or
what?
9. Anybody want a beer? My hands are really starting to
shake.
8. Hey, aren't there supposed to be ten elders? I only see
nine.
7. Just for record-keeping purposes, what is the combination
of the safe?
6. One of my wives is concerned that this job may take away
time from our marriage. Is that true?
5. Can my oldest step-son use the church van to deliver
pizzas tonight?
4. Have you guys tried the Sunday Brunch at Hooters?
3. I feel a calling to a special ministry to the young single
women at the church. Could I have them in my shepherding group?
2. Could we move our meeting time an hour later? I can't
miss another AA meeting or my probation officer wil get real mad.
1. Have any of you ever wanted to earn extra income by using
Amway products?
