A preacher was making his rounds on a bicycle, when he came upon a little boy trying to sell a lawn mower.
\n\u201cHow much do you want for the mower?\u201d asked the preacher.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just want enough money to go out and buy me a bicycle.\u201d said the little boy.<\/p>\n
After a moment of consideration, the preacher asked, \u201cWill you take my bike in trade for it?\u201d<\/p>\n
The little boy asked if he could try it out first. He told the preacher he hadn\u2019t ridden a bicycle in a long time and wasn\u2019t sure he could still ride one.<\/p>\n
The preacher told him, \u201cJust keep trying. It\u2019ll come back to you.\u201d<\/p>\n
After riding the bike around a little while, the little boy said, \u201cMister, you\u2019ve got yourself a deal.\u201d<\/p>\n
The preacher took the mower and began to crank it. He pulled on the rope a few times with no response from the mower.<\/p>\n
The preacher called the little boy over and said, \u201cI can\u2019t get this mower to start.\u201d<\/p>\n
The little boy said, \u201cThat\u2019s because you have to c*ss at it to get it started.\u201d<\/p>\n
The preacher said, \u201cI can\u2019t cuss. It\u2019s been so long since I became a Christian that I don\u2019t even remember how to c*ss.\u201d<\/p>\n
The little boy looked at him happily and said, \u201cYou just keep pulling on that rope. It\u2019ll come back to you.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
