“My dad is a superhero,” my son, Stuart, pronounced.
Headline: Raleigh, NC – In an unfortunate confluence of events, children and adults alike are being traumatized by an unidentified man wearing tights and a cape, and calling himself “Captain Shares-A-Lot”. “It was so terrifying,” one witness said, as she clutched her sobbing child. “My poor baby will never be the same!” “Why would anyone do these kinds of things to children?!” another witness cried, shaking his fists in rage. This man does not appear to be armed, but authorities consider him mischievously dangerous. If you see him, do not attempt to detain him. Immediately call the proper authorities at the District Superintendent’s office.”
Could Captain Shares-A-Lot actually be Stuart’s dad? Is Captain Shares-A-Lot an alias of Pastor Ben’s? Does anyone actually think or believe that the Pastor of St. Mark’s would put on tights, don a cape, and seek to conceal his identity by wearing a mask – just to try and capture the preschoolers attention during chapel time? Surely not. I don’t believe it and the good news is there is no photographic evidence to prove it! Thanks be to God.
But it does leave us with a very interesting question…if I’m not Captain Shares-A-Lot then who is? Will he strike again? Only if he hears that someone is not sharing like they should. So next time you think about not sharing…remember you’ve been warned. May we go in peace assured that on God’s behalf Captain Shares-A-Lot is making the world a better place!
