As we reviewed the effects of Hurricane Katrina two years after landfall, we interviewed Pastor Fred Luter of New Orleans. After the update on the ministries of recovery, I asked the pastor about his son, who is studying to be a pastor just like his dad. Here is an approximation of part of the conversation…
Lorri: Pastor Luter, is it true Chip lettered in Magic in high school?
Pastor: Yes, he thought that was fun.
Lorri: That will make his sermons interesting to include a few tricks. ‘Sinner-disappear!’
Pastor: I’d like to make a few deacons disappear.
Randy Singer and I got a big laugh out of that. And I suspect that there was a grain of truth in Pastor Luter’s words. In Pastor Luter’s bag of tricks, a quick sense of humor helps when you face the Category 5 storms of life. What’s in your bag of tricks?
