Golden telephone
A man in Topeka, Kansas, decided to write a book about churches
around the country. He started by flying to San Francisco, and
started working east from there.
Going to a very large church, he began taking photographs and
making notes.
He spotted a golden telephone on the vestibule wall and was
intrigued with a sign which read "$10,000 a minute."
Seeking out the pastor he asked about the phone and the sign.
The pastor answered that this golden phone is, in fact, a direct
line to Heaven and if he pays the price he can talk directly
to God. The man thanked the pastor and continued on his way.
As he continued to visit churches in Seattle, Austin,
Michigan, Chicago,Minnesota, and around the United States, he found more phones,
with the same sign, and the same answer from each pastor.
Finally, he arrived in Iowa upon entering a church in
Council Bluffs, Iowa behold, he saw the usual golden telephone.
But THIS time, the sign read "Calls: 25 cents."
Fascinated, he asked to talk to the pastor. "Reverend, I have been
in cities all across the country and in each church I have found
this golden telephone and have been told it is a direct line
to Heaven and that I could talk to God, but, in the other churches the cost
was $10,000 a minute. Your sign reads 25 cents a call. Why?"
I just love this part------
The pastor, smiling benignly, replied, "Son, you're in
Iowa now, and it's a local call."
