A preacher had a habit of putting a life saver in his mouth after he prayed to start his sermon. when the life Saver was gone he wold stop preaching. One Sunday he preached 30 minutes, then 45, then an hour, then finally he quit.
After the service he and his wife were on the way home his wife asked him why he had preached so long. he said, well you know I always preach till the life Saver is gone... yes she said. Well today I preached and preached and I didn't have anything else to say, when I spit out the life Saver I found that it wasn't a Life Saver at all. When I started preaching I had put a button in my mouth.

It's easier to fool people than it is to convince them they have been fooled.

I must have listened to quite a few preachers with buttons in their mouths.

Re: Humor- Preaching too long
Me too... too many.
Of course, every now and again I've hit the jackpot on the other end of the sprectrum. Back in the '70's during our summer vacation my father and brothers and I were visiting old family gravesites. This was right after "Roots" came out, and Dad was doing a bunch of family research. Sunday morning we headed to church at the little town where we were. The priest stood up to start his homily after the gospel, and simply stated, "well, you all know what I would say."
That was it!
