Being a Preacher's kid is not very easy. Must say! Well... me and my sis, Glory have come up with some advantages and disadvantages of being a Preacher/ Pastor's Kids. I bet you that those of us who are Pastor's kid will agree with us on few of these things mentioned below. This blog article is dedicated to DAD, with love Grace & Glory
PS: No offense to anyone. This is purely for fun!!!
ADVANTAGES OF BEING THE PRECHER'S KID
1. Sneaking into the Church when no one’s around and cranking up the sound system, using the church instruments and pretending to be rock stars!
2. Getting to hang out with other Preacher's Kids and realizing we weren’t as messed up as we thought we were!
3. Having a command of King James English (Ex: Thou, Thee etc) will come in handy if we ever decide to become Shakespearean actors.
4. Building massive muscles by lifting Dad's set of Bible Commentaries, Concordance and Dakes Bible at home. (Obviously coz its has infinite number of pages)
5. Being made the captain of the Church cricket team even if you are the worst player in the team.
6. Getting introduced personally to the special guest speaker who visits our church :D
7. The entire congregation is super nice and kind to you in church (it's not the same at your work place, isn't it)
DISADVANTAGES OF BEING THE PRECHER'S KID
1. Having every stupid thing we ever said and did used as a sermon illustration.
2. Always being called on to answer the tough Bible questions during quiz.
3. Always being in the lime light and mom asking us to behave ourselves in the Church.
4. Your prayer will be evaluated for its volume, content, dramatic presentation and length. Ex: Like how many "ums" used in the prayer.
5. Always being the topic of discussion for church members for every small thing said and done (Ex: oh, Pastor's kid!!!)
6. The entire church wanting to know how much percentage we scored in our board exams.
Kindly add in if i have forgotten someting :P

DeletePK cannot grow his hair... If so it's grown, the main, most easiest comment would be "You don't like your Dad" from others in the church. :D
