We need you in the Army of the Lord

A friend was in front of me coming out of church one day after Easter service, and as always, the preacher was standing at the door shaking hands as the congregation departed.  He grabbed my friend by the hand and pulled him aside.  The preacher said to him, “You need to join the Army of the Lord!”

My friend replied, “I’m already in the Army of the Lord, Preacher.”

The preacher questioned, “Then how come I don’t see you except for Christmas and Easter?”

He whispered back, “I’m in the secret service.”
