Titus 3:1-8
How many people in this room would be honest enough to say, if this is true of you, that you have trouble remembering things? (laughter). Wow! Okay. Some of you put up two hands (laughter). Had trouble remembering it was just one hand that I was asking for. I have noticed, as I get older, I'm having more trouble remembering things. I mean, basic things, simple things like my address.

So I was either, is he Old Testament or New Testament, you know (laughter), that kind of thing. I heard a story about the President. He was on a campaign tour this last election. And he went into a nursing home and he was talking to them about Medicaid and things like that. And then they were just kind of mingling.
