Carpool Tomfoolery

Last July, Nevada state troopers ticketed a hearse driver who claimed the corpse he was carrying should qualify his vehicle for HOV (high-occupancy vehicle) lane privileges!

World’s Worst Cat

An animal shelter in North Carolina was having trouble placing a badly behaving cat. That is, until they posted the following description of the finicky feline: 

We thought Perdita was sick but turns out she’s just a jerk. She likes isolation, lurking in corners, jumping at people who pass her by, and staring into your soul until you feel as if you may never be cheerful again.

They immediately received 175 applications from people eager to adopt the so-called jerk cat!

Was Jesus Misinformed?

The idea of Jesus being misinformed is preposterous to a believer who is informed by the evidence of His historical ministry. His identity as the incarnation of God is attested by His own claims and His works recorded by eyewitnesses (see my book, Surprised by Faith, chapter 3). As God, His knowledge of all things—including science and history—is impeccable. 

How could He possibly be misinformed?

“Our greatest work is still ours every day—the work of prayer. Prayer knows no boundary, no quarantine, no confinement.” —SIM international director Joshua Bogunjoko in a letter to thousands of missionaries in thirty-eight countries who are isolated by COVID-19.
