The pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express
praise for answered prayers.
A lady stood and walked to the podium. She said, "I have a praise.
Two months ago, my husband, Jim, had a terrible bicycle wreck and his
scrotum was completely crushed. The pain was excruciating and the
doctors didn't know if they could help him."
You could hear an audible gasp from the men in the congregation as they
imagined the pain that poor Jim experienced. She continued, "Jim was
unable to hold me or the children and every move caused him terrible pain.
We prayed as the doctors performed a delicate operation. They were able
to piece together the crushed remnants of Jim's scrotum and wrap wire
around it to hold it in place.
"Again, the men in the congregation squirmed uncomfortably as they
imagined the horrible surgery performed on Jim. She continued, "Now, Jim
is out of the hospital and the doctor's say, with time, his scrotum
should recover completely."
All the men sighed with relief. The pastor rose and tentatively asked if
anyone else had anything to say.
A man rose and walked to the podium. He said, "Hi, I'm Jim and I want to
tell my wife that the proper pronunciation of the word is sternum".
