Donating Junk to the Church

Story★★★★

The Wesleyan Advocate had a cartoon of a man and a woman looking at a worn-out couch. The cushions were patched an three springs were poking up through them. In the caption the man says, “Well, we have two options. We can have the junk man pick it up, or we can donate it to the church.”
