A pastor concluded that his church was getting into very serious financial
>> troubles. While checking the church storeroom, he discovered several
> cartons of new bibles that had never been opened and distributed.
>>>> So at his Sunday sermon, he asked for three volunteers from the
>> congregation who would be willing to sell the bibles door-to-door for
>>>> $10 each to raise the desperately needed money for the church.
>>>> Jack, Paul and Louie all raised their hands to volunteer for the task.
>>>> The minister knew that Jack and Paul earned their living as salesmen and
>> were likely capable of selling some bibles.
>>>> But he had serious doubts about Louie who was a local farmer, who had
>> always kept to himself because he was embarrassed by his speech
>> impediment..
