    How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb?

    a.. Charismatic: Only one. Hands already in the air.
    b.. Pentecostal: Ten. One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit of darkness.
    c.. Presbyterian: None. Lights will go on and off at predestined times.
    d.. Catholic: None. Candles only.
    e.. Baptist: At least 15. One to change the light bulb, and three committees to approve the change and to decide who brings the fried chicken and potato salad.
    f.. Episcopalian: Three. One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks, and one to talk about how much better the old bulb was.
    g.. Mormon: Five. One man to change the bulb and four wives to tell him how to do it.
    h.. Methodist: Undetermined. Whether your light is bright, dull, or completely burned out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, turnip bulb, or tulip bulb. Church-wide lighting service is planned for Sunday. Bring the bulb of your choice and a covered dish.
    i.. Nazarene: Six. One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.
    j.. Lutheran: None. Lutherans don't believe in change.
    k.. Church of Christ: They do not use light bulbs because there is no evidence of their use in the New Testament.
    l.. Unitarian: We choose not to make a statement either in favor of or against the need for a light bulb. However, if in your own journey you have found that light bulbs work for you, that is fine. You are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your bulb for next Sunday's service, during which we will explore a number of light bulb traditions, including incandescent, fluorescent, three-way, long-life, and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence.

    Apostolic: None. We don't change lightbulbs because we will revive the old one.

    Micah,

    You got a shave and a haircut!!
    Ephesians 5:18 (New King James Version)

    18 And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit,


    I Come To The Garden Alone Hymn

    And He walks with me, and He talks with me,
    And He tells me I am His own;
    And the joy we share as we tarry there,
    None other has ever known.
