The Prospect
The church board took a prospective pastor applicant to lunch, where they tried, with little success, to get him to open up about his experience and qualifications.
Frustrated, a board member set his salad aside and proposed a specific and complex situation to the prospect, then asked, “What would you do?”
The prospect hesitated, then, looking at the board member straight in the eye, said, “Are you going to eat all those tomatoes?”
