and Jesus will ride on a rocket bike with a red lightning bolt t-shirt with the Flash Gordon theme by Queen playing in the background…

"Plus, Jesus is going to have to leave sometime, because he’s got to get back to Earth right before Steve and Julie Garrett of Akron, Ohio consummate their marriage."

Thanks for making me laugh today.

I love the part about Ace of Bass. I rocked to that song "I Saw the Sign".

Matt (Miles)!!!

I can't believe you had your eyes open during the "every head bowed, every eye closed." portion of the altar call!!!! That's like a lifetime ban from heaven there (even through I swear that there's never a hand up when the speaker "recognizes them".

-Your beloved ex-roomie, Tim.

Hoov: Sadly I think I'm the only one who got your comment.

I'm all for Harry Potter movies in Heaven! And can we make Ace of Base Queen, please? Singing Bohemian Rhapsody for the rest of eternity would make me extrmely happy! I guess I'll wish for that before I go. Queen+Harry Potter times infinity=Awesomeness! (in a very nerdy way):)

Great stuff! I also used to think there wasn't much in the Bible about Heaven until I read Randy Alcorn's book "Heaven". It's not a recall of a freaky "I died and took a field trip to Heaven" experience, but instead an amazing theological treatise on heaven. I had NO clue how much scripture talks about heaven. It's so cool! There's a small booklet about it as well and has been a great resource for those who have lost a loved one and are wondering what life is like for them. It's an easy read although it's long and you don't have to be a theologian to understand it. But I will say….he doesn't describe God as a large black woman in the kitchen.

I also love the note about Jesus sometimes asking us to quote Bible verses. My daughters just finished taking "The Bible Bee" and to put things in perspective, I asked them "Do you think God will make you recite a Bible verse to get into heaven?"

Plus, my hubby and I just bought Ben Franklin Tshirts at the Philly airport during an unplanned seven hour layover that had a quote from him: "Beer is living proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy." We thought it was the perfect shirt because it involved God and beer.
