The Perfect Baptist’s Halloween

NOTE:
Now, I have to warn you - you’ll probably only get this joke if you’re a Baptist!

Dr. Joseph Stowell, the previous President of Moody Bible Institute, once told a funny Halloween anecdote. He said when he and his siblings were younger they used to go trick-or-treating every year.

Since his father was a pastor, several of the parishioners became upset. One man even came to his father and said, “I can’t believe that you, a pastor, would let his children participate in this pagan holiday.”

Figuring that maybe the man had a point, Mr. Stowell’s father said, “Maybe you’re right. Tell me, what does your family do on Halloween?”

“Oh, us?” the man said. “Well, we all go out to a movie.”

Ha! Ha! That cracks me up every time!
