A preacher finished the service one Sunday morning by saying, "Next
Sunday I am going to preach on the subject of liars. As a preparation for
my sermon I would like you all to read Mark 17."
On the following Sunday, the preacher rose to begin. Looking out at the
congregation he said, "Last week I asked you all to read Mark 17. If you
have read the chapter, please raise your hand." Nearly every hand in the
congregation went up.
Smiling, the preacher said, "You are the very people I want to talk to.
Mark has only 16 chapters."

If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for?
