While I was in my first year at Liberty University, the campus pastor shared a story at convocation right after spring break. Apparently, a couple of LU students were on spring break in another state, staying at a hotel on a beach. While away from the rules and regulations of Liberty, they decided they'd have some "fun." For these two, "fun" came in the form of mooning old ladies as they passed their hotel window. They decided at one point to "press the ham" (these are the exact words our campus pastor used). Apparently they over-estimated the structural integrity of their windows, and actually broke through the glass!
Ouch.
As if this weren't bad enough, a Liberty alumnus who still kept up with the campus pastor was staying at the same hotel. He not only got all the details, but swiftly relayed them to the campus pastor. The pastor graciously did not point out the two mooners, but noted that they might be the ones shifting painfully in their seats at the moment. He closed with this statement:
There was a subtle statement amongst all the dozens of verses we read today. Did you catch it?
