Lemme just ask you a question. How many of you have ever gotten in a hammock? I know that's a weird way to start a sermon but I'm curious. We have a hammock at my house. I I don't usually use it. Colletta bought it a few years ago, just put it up in the backyard. I'm a little suspicious of hammocks just in general.
I don't get any very often, but a couple weeks ago I decided I probably should. It's been up all summer, fall's coming, and there's not gonna be a chance. So I'll get in. So I got in it, which is not an easy thing to do. By the way, hammocks are not, I, it is a weird piece of furniture, isn't it?

Oh and I discovered something about hammocks at that point, which is that like yes, they're comfortable, but the more comfortable you get in them, the harder it is to get out of them. And so I'm trying to get out of this thing and maintain some shred of dignity, which is not an easy thing to do.
And trying to get out of a hammock. I did eventually, I hope none of my neighbors saw me. And if, because if they did, they're gonna be like, I'm not going to that guy's church. One, one of our neighbors, Bob and Mary, maybe you guys are with us today. You're watc ...
