If nothing else, the generally hapless Ruthless and Jor-El seem to have a better than average grip here on the subtle but very real art of addressing a congregation with a propensity for either only showing up on Christmas and Easter or showing up once a week, not applying what they heard that morning to the rest of the week and never opening a Bible, but nonetheless “Feelin’ purty good about muhsef ’cause I done did my duty”.
Church I go to they have bi-laws established maybe from the start, When a Pastor serves so many years they have to go on a sabbatical, our current Pastor has 15 years so he is gone for maybe two months. Next be the children Pastor he will be gone for a little while

This must portend something happening in the real world or that had happened.

If they were in a Catholic church the statues would run out!

Rufus singing WOULD drive out the masses of EVERYONE…. Joel is just trying to be kind in his admonition.
Joel is always ever-ready to work with stalwart energy and dedication to a task. Notice, he even removed his chapeaux while in church.
Our pipe-smoking hero remains steadfast and true to his professorial nature!

I’ll sing on Rufus’ behalf in church this morning!

You’re not allowed to sing because you can’t sing.

I always appreciated a “breather” from a soloist or a group when I was serving as a pastor. This gang? Well, I’m willing to give them grace.

We typically have a hymn sing instead of a regular service the Sunday after Christmas.
