Second Baptist Church

I don’t ask for much. 

I want to live a life that’s right and pleasing to God. 

I want to be Rebecca St. James’ trophy husband. 

And I want a Baptist Church to be forthright and say, “Look.  We’re not the first!” 

I thought the First Baptist Church began in Judea. 

Along the Jordan River.

With Jesus’ cousin, a locust-eating, leather-wearing, disciple-dunking prophet named John.

If only one Baptist church would name themselves Second Baptist, they could attract more people. 

Especially if they said: “Jesus is first; we’re second.  Come visit us at Second Baptist.”

Blessings & Joy,
