His response was, that the first time the committee heard him preach, he had a new set of dentures in his mouth that hurt him terribly so he could barely preach 10 minutes and had to stop talking because of the pain. The second time he preached, he said that his dentures felt fine so he preached a normal 30 minute sermon.

He said, ''I got up that particular morning and accidentally put my wife's Dentures in my mouth, and when I started talking I couldn't shut up!''
