phases in shades of pink...

Life is complicated. It not only comes in various colors but in various shades of each color. Black and white appear at opposite extremes of the spectrum and in between are all the different shades of colors. Thus, hot pink would be funky, lively and energetic while a rose white would symbolize a more serene, peaceful and pure environment. My life therefore, is colored in shades of pink.

How many Christians to change a lightbulb?

How many Christians does it take to change a lightbulb?

Charismatic: Only one--Hands are already in the air!

Pentecostal: Ten--One to change the bulb, and nine to pray against the spirit of darkness.

Presbyterian: None--Lights will go on and off at predestined times.

Roman Catholic: None--Candles only.

Baptist: At least fifteen--One to change the bulb and three committees to approve the change and decide who brings the potato salad.

Episcopalian (Anglican): Three--One to call the electrician, one to mix the drinks and one to talk about how much better the old one was.

Nazarene: Six--One woman to replace the bulb while five men review church lighting policy.

Unitarians: We choose not to make a statement either in favour of or against the need for a lightbulb. However, if in your own journey you have found that lightbulbs work for you, that is fine. You are invited to write a poem or compose a modern dance about your lightbulb for the next Sunday service, in which we will explore a number of lightbulb traditions including incandescent, fluorenscent, three way, long-life and tinted, all of which are equally valid paths to luminescence.

Methodists: Undetermined--Whether your light is bright, dull or completely out, you are loved. You can be a light bulb, tunipbulb or tulip bulb. Church-wide lighting service is planned for Sunday. Bring bulb of your choice and a covered dish.

Lutherans: All of them--Lutherans never change light bulb or denomination, even in burnouts.Faith alone carries them through the period of darkness until they, including bulb, are turned on again by love and all, not only bulb, shall be changed.

Kingdom of God: Christ Himself--Ever since God said "Let there be light", there was light, with or without bulbs. In case of darkness change of anything doesn’t help unless Christ Himself comes to supply darkness with hands to grasp the light.
