A "Good" Christian Life?
Heart Reaching Object Lessons: Sight Sermons
on Sin, Salvation, Separation and Service
By Elmer L. Wilder
Zondervan Publishing House, 1939
Riddle: How do pennies, stamps and
matches tell a moral Bible story? Answer: With a little creativity
and a good Christian heart! For Sunday school teachers and those
currently controlling government, this book offers endless suggestions
that will help you cleverly illustrate the virtues of condescending,
repression and close-mindedness. Learn about cashing a check in
the Bank of Heaven, the self-imposed noose of the drunkard and
even the black ribbon of SIN. Act now and sit even higher on your
moral horse.

Shouldn't "object lessons"
include some objectivity? The "arrow of truth"
piercing the Heart seems to be more metaphor than objective.

What? Stamps are like Christians? I
don't understand how church can be like the Post Office?
Or is this a veiled reference to proselytizing? Sorry, I
already gave during the sermon...

Look, I just told you I already gave...during
the sermon...you know when the pastor brought out that silly
red heart and the penny. At first I thought he was going
to begin doing parlor tricks but then he started talking
about taxes and I just tuned out...Oh, pastor Wilder, good
sermon today...*cough*

Oh, this is choice...The three "B's",
what is that: bodybuilding, bearings and bolting? They sure
didn't teach these things in Sunday school when I was a
kid!
