↓ TranscriptAbby: "Pugs are Chinese, right?"

Abby: "What?"
Con: Praying for them!"
↓ TranscriptNim: Why am I on this stupid diet? It's not like it's a sin or anything to be fat!
Abby: Maybe it's not a sin, but it shows ingratitude to God for his gift of life. Plus, our bodies are the Temple of the Holy Spirit and should be kept as pure as possible.
Nim: Don't argue with me today, fuzzball! I may be small, but I'm hungry!
Look at what you do to excess and ask, "Is this interfering with my relationship with God?"
Gen 5:32-10:1
↓ TranscriptNim: Was Noah's wife Joan of Ark?
Abby: No! Who in the world would ever think that?
Nim: Apparently we haven't me, my name is Nim.
No one knows the name of Noah's wife because it's never mentioned in the Bible.
↓ TranscriptAbby: Who lost his strength with a haircut?
Con: Sampson!
Abby: You misspelled it. There's no "P" in it.
Con: I didn't realize you'd take points off for spelling.
The story of Samson and Delilah is in Judges 16.
↓ TranscriptAbby: Your fear of thunder is irrational, Con.
Con: I know.
Abby: Thunder is just a sonic wave created by the expansion of air surrounding a bolt of lightning.
Con: I know it's irrational, but you of all people should understand. After all, you're afraid of rolled-up newspapers.
Abby: You're not actually comparing a little thunder to "Satan's Baseball Bats," are you?
With God, we have nothing to fear.
↓ TranscriptAbby: The 4th of July was great. We watched fireworks from the church lawn.
Con: (SHUDDER)
Abby: I heard about you running and hiding in the church when the fireworks show started.
Con: I thought it was thunder. You know how I feel about the Godless thunder!
Abby: "Godless" thunder?
Sometimes talking about your fears can help you deal with them.
↓ TranscriptCon: Paul compared the life of a Christian to a race. The longer we run, the harder it is. We grow tired & careless, but Jesus will help each of us win our race.
Abby: What kind of shoes do I need to buy for this race?
The race Paul talks about represents our daily battle against sin.
↓ TranscriptJerry: I have to use the church's computer because mine in on the grits.
Abby: On the grits? Don't you mean "on the fritz?"
Jerry: No. YESTERDAY it was "on the fritz." So today it's in a dumpster out back of the Waffle House.
If you need a computer, but don't have one, see if your church offers them in the library.
↓ TranscriptAbby: THANK YOU!!! At least once a day, I like to take the time to give thanks to God.
Don't just ask God to do things for you, thank Him for all He's already done for you.
↓ TranscriptNim: My newest scheme is gonna make me millions!
Abby: Why is it so important to you to make millions?
Nim: Because...well...um...because...you see...it's...I...
Abby: It's not because you don't trust God to take care of you and that you have to take care of yourself, is it?
Nim: You know, you're sucking all the fun out of the world domination thing.
God will satisfy all of your needs.
