Sunday School Stories

STORY OF ELIJAH
The Sunday school teacher was carefully explaining the story of Elijah
the Prophet and the false prophets of Baal. She explained how Elijah built
the altar, put wood upon it, cut the steer in pieces, and laid it upon the
altar. And then, Elijah commanded the people of God to fill four
barrels of water and pour it over the altar. He had them do this four times.

Now," said the teacher, "can anyone in the class tell me why the Lord
would have Elijah pour water over the steer on the altar?"

A little girl in the back of the room started waving her hand, "I know!
I know!" she said, "To make the gravy!"

LOT'S WIFE
The Sunday School teacher was describing how Lot's wife looked back
and turned into a pillar of salt, when little Jason interrupted.

"My Mommy looked back once, while she was driving," he announced
triumphantly, "and she turned into a telephone pole!"

GOOD SAMARITAN
A Sunday school teacher was telling her class the story of the Good
Samaritan, in which a man was beaten, robbed and left for dead. She
described the situation in vivid detail so her students would catch
the drama. Then, she asked the class, "If you saw a person lying on the
roadside, all wounded and bleeding, what would you do?"

A thoughtful little girl broke the hushed silence, "I think I'd throw up."

DID NOAH FISH?
A Sunday school teacher asked, "Johnny, do you think Noah did a lot of
fishing when he was on the Ark?"

"No," replied David J. "How could he, with just two worms."

HIGHER POWER
A Sunday school teacher said to her children, "We have been learning
how powerful kings and queens were in Bible times. But, here is a higher
power. Can anybody tell me what it is?"

One child blurted out, "Aces!"

MOSES & THE RED SEA
Nine-year-old Joey, was asked by his mother what he had learned in
Sunday school.

"Well, Mom, our teacher told us how God sent Moses behind enemy lines
on a rescue mission to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. When he got to the
Red Sea, he had his army build a pontoon bridge and all the people walked
across safely. Then, he radioed headquarters for reinforcements. They sent
bombers to blow up the bridge and all the Israelites were saved."

"Now, Joey, is that really what your teacher taught you?" his mother asked.

"Well, no, Mom. But, if I told it the way the teacher did, you'd never believe it!"
