There was once a town overrun by squirrels. They were everywhere, especially the churches. The ministers and their congregations didn't know what to do. At the first church, the congregation finally decided that God had sent the squirrels for a reason. They invited the squirrels to potlucks, fellowship hours, Bible study, and other church activities, resigned to their new fellow worshipers. The second church was a little more ruthless: They trapped all the squirrels and set them free in another town. But next Sunday, the squirrels were right back in their pews.
