So, there's this missionary and he's got a pretty bad stutter. Despite this, he decides he’s going to sell Bibles door-to-door because, well, faith!

Now, the church leaders aren’t too optimistic. They’re thinking, “Bless his heart, but this is going to be a disaster…”

Fast forward a month, and guess what? This guy is not just selling a “few” Bibles—he’s selling more Bibles than anyone in the entire region! The other missionaries are like, "What the heck is his secret?"

So, the head of the church finally sits him down and says, “Okay, spill it. How on earth are you selling so many Bibles?”

The missionary leans in, real serious, and says, “Well, it's simple. I knock on the door, and when they answer, I say, 'W-w-w-would you L-like to b-buy a B-B-Bible, or sh-should I s-s-sit down and r-r-read it to you c-c-c-cover to c-c-c-cover?'

It was from fairstone they pre approved him for a loan up to $3,500.00 Must be an amazing testimony with the money lenders if they can preapprove you for a loan 2 years after you passed away.

I got the same type loan notice after my dad died.
So to kill many birds with one stone I used their prepaid stamped envelope and filled out the application. If he was pre-approved why's he have to apply?

Anyway, at the end of the application, and I put his address as Heaven 777, I wrote a personal note in the space provided.

"Please hurry with the check. Moses has a Harley for sale at a real bargain."

Just like that Dad was taken off all those type mailing lists.

Sadly, dad had to settle for a Kawasaki because Apostle John beat him to the Harley.
Bummer dude.

Junk mail! It helps to have a sense of humor. It really confuses the mailers. lol

This is epic!!!

Thank you so much for sharing. :)

I know this is a bit different but it reminds me when credit card companies were handing out pre-approved applications to everyone (I suppose they still do?), but especially college students who were racking up tons of debt and had little financial experience.

People were starting to push back, and the credit companies insisted they had strict screening measures.

To prove a point, one man set out to get his dog a credit card in her own name -- and succeeded. A nightly news segment featured the man and his dog happily shopping at the local pet store, where his dog "paid for her own purchases using her own credit card."

His next goal was to get her one of the cards that has a picture of the person (or being) that owns it right on the card.

I don't know if he was able to get that one, but it sure was a funny story that made an excellent point.
