How To Get To Heaven & Wash Your Hair

“If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale, and gave all my money to the church, would that get me into heaven?” I asked the children in my Sunday school class.

“NO!” the children all answered.


Again the answer was, “NO!””Well, then, if I was kind to animals and gave candy to all the children and loved my wife, would that get me into heaven?” I asked them again.

Once more they all answered, “NO!”

“Well,” I continued, thinking they were a good bit more theologically sophisticated than I had given them credit for, “then how can I get into heaven?”

A five-year-old boy shouted out, “You gotta be dead!”


One asked the other if she would like a beer.



The cashier had a surprised look, so the nun said, “This is for washing our hair.”


“The curlers are on me.”
