He was also a smiling person, who started the first church picnic and launched the original Easter sunrise breakfast. Send for the booklet be-' low and you'll find that Bible reading is fun. Religion should never be stodgy or funereal! By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE E-517: For 33 years I have taught the Dixon Bible class at the skyscraper Chicago Temple. Following the Sunday School recently, I invited a couple of visitors to have dinner with me at a nearby Chinese restaurant. j[^nd during our dinner discu| sion on various subjects, one offniSf-. guest# asked me when baseball slMd. I told him late in the last cUtury. But he said it was described in the Biblel Then he recited the following humorous bit of verse: "Didn't Eve steal first? ••Then Adam stole 2nd. "St. Peter umpired the game. "Rebecca went to the well with the pitcher. "And Ruth in the field won feme. "A base hit was made on Abel by Cain. Home insurance high? "The Prodigal Son made a famous homerun. "Hurrah! Even Brother Noah gave out checks for rain?" BIBLE HUMOR Innocent h»mor about Biblical things is not sacrilegious. Here's another example along this same line about the Garden of Eden. "It wasn't the apple in the tree that God had to worry about, but the pear (pair) on the ground!" Some stodgy clerics have tried to squeeze all the wholesome fun and merriment out of religion. They apparently fail to realize that Christ was a fun-loving parson. For Jesus liked to go sailing with his Aposties. And he doubtless enjoyed Ushihg trips, too. , We know that he attended a wedding/feast at Cana, where hefe performed his first miracle at the pleading of his mother. And he relished his weekend visits to the home of Mary, Martha and Lazarus. Christ started the first church picnic when he fed the 5,000 men with the boy's loaves and fishes. He also originated the Easter sunrise breakfast! For he beckoned to his Apostles off shore after an all-night fishing trip and when they landed, Jesus had prepared breakfast for them of broiled fish and bread. Jesus also had a keen sense of humor, as shown by his use of hyperbole. ter at the sheer ridiculousness of the situation. ! Thus, Jesus taunted his penny ante critics with " straining at gnats but swallowing camels!" That was certainly extravagant exaggeration! He did this again When he warned petty critics about pointing out the "mote" or speck in their brother's eye while they had a saw-log or "beam" in their own eye! In order to jnake the Bible come to life and thus inspire teen-agers to read it, send for my booklet "How to Stimulate Bible Reading", enclosing a long stamped, return envelope and 20 cents. It contains 140 fascinating problems and dramatic test items with the specific Bible references where the full stories can be found. 1968 DUES Of the Lilymoor association are now due.
