Ready for the church service,
Microphone was on.

True story, personal, faced by most pastors at some time during their ministry, unfortunately usually during times of great gastro-intestinal distress. For me, someone knocked on the bathroom door & said, "Pastor, could you please turn your microphone off."

How have I not read this before? Oh my goodness. How embarrassing. Fair play to the person who told you. Mortifying! Still making me chuckle!
That is actually hilarious. Worth it for the tale to tell!
Omg noooo the embarrassment, Oh life would be boring without the laughs
Why am I not surprised. And the Lord said, let there be p**p and there was p**p. And no one ever lacked for p**p thenceforth and forever. I hope you began the sermon with 'I would completely understand if no one ever came to church ever again".
LOL, OH NO!!!!!
WOW! omg you rocked this piece!
😅🤣🤣 oh boy! That’s one for the ages!
Omg, if that happened to me, I'd leave through a back exit and never come back! 😳
One of this days, I hope you share a video of you as a pastor in your stories. That would be so awesome 🤩 .
LOL 😂
Omggggg! How did you even recover from this? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂 my uncle did this. Good one, Randy!
Oh no! 😂😳
Yup. I can share that our choir director said: loudly: ‘well, he washes his hands’ -a PK
