INTRODUCTION: A man calls Pizza Hut to order a pizza.
"Is this Pizza Hut?"
It's A.I. Pizza.
"I must have dialed a wrong number, sorry."
No sir, Pizza Hut installed A.I. last month.
"OK. I would like to order a pizza."
Do you want your usual, sir?
"My usual? You know me?"
According to our caller ID data sheet, the last twelve times you called you ordered an extra-large pizza with cheese, sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms and meatballs on a thick crust.
"Super! That's what I'll have."
May I suggest that you order a pizza with ricotta, arugula, sun-dried tomatoes and olives on a whole wheat gluten-free thin crust?
"What? I don't want a vegetarian pizza!"
Your cholesterol isn't good, sir.
"How do you know that?"
We cross-referenced your cell number with your medical records.
"Ok, but I do not want your vegetarian pizza! I already take medication for my cholesterol."
You haven't taken your medication regularly. You purchased a box of 30 tablets once at the pharmacy four months ago.
"I bought more from another Pharmacy."
That doesn't show on your credit card statement.
"I paid in cash."
But you didn't withdraw enough cash according to your bank statement.
"I have other sources of cash."
That doesn't show on your latest tax returns unless you bought them using an undeclared income source, which is against the law!
"WHAT?!!!"
I'm sorry sir, we use such information only with the sole intention of helping you.
"Enough already! I'm sick of Google, Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp & all the others. I'm going to an island without internet, TV, phone service & no one to watch me or spy on me."
I understand sir, but you need to renew your passport first. It expired six weeks ago.
KISS - KEEP IT SIMPLE STEVE. Let's review. We've been in a sermon series entitled "Simple Church." Our mission state ...
