Humor in sermons

THE EAR - The Freeman
March 5, 2014 | 12:00am

Among those seen attending these seminars are priests who want their sermons or homilies to be "worth listening to," to quote one resource speaker.

AWAKE. A lay minister told an Ear informer that his parish priest has expressed approval of priests attending the humor seminar to enable them to do away with sleepy parishioners during homily time.
