RANDOM THOUGHTS MADE LESS SO - Strange Nicknames



An evangelist told me that his kids refer to me as "the applesauce preacher" because I mentioned to them I sometimes eat applesauce on pizza.

I was told by a fellow pastor that his kids refer to me as "the pastor who came to see you" because I visited him in the hospital.


A lady in town refers to me as "Mr. Betterthanideserve" because when people ask me, "how are you?" I respond honestly by saying, "I'm better than I deserve."


A friend of mine, who is now with the Lord, used to call me "Bwudder Wick" because he heard a boy in Tn. call me that. The boy was trying to say "Brother Rick" but it came out somewhat differently.


I have been called worse. I have been called better. Most importantly, God calls me "son" - "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." [John 1:12]
