Preach or play golf?
Sam was a preacher, but golf was his passion. It had rained every
weekend for a month and he was dying to play a round. Sunday was the first sunny day in weeks. So he called his deacon and told him an
emergency had called him away. Church would have to be canceled.
He realized he couldn't play at a local course - someone might recognize him - so he drove two counties away and teed up on a course he'd never played before.
Meanwhile St. Peter was watching Sam from Heaven. He called the angel on weekend duty and said, "I've got a preacher who canceled church to play golf. Come here and administer appropriate unishment."
The angel appeared as Sam was teeing off on hole 4, a par 3. The ball lofted and landed precisely in the hole.
"You gave him a hole-in-one?" Peter asked incredulously. "You call that punishment?"
"Yes," the angel replied. "Who can he tell?"
