For 25 years, part of my pastoral ministry has been to hold services in a nursing home. One of the "regulars" has her television remote control attached to the arm of her wheelchair. When my attempts at being humorous fall flat, this dear lady aims the control at me and threatens to turn me off.
One day, as she played her little joke, I laughed and told her she couldn't turn me off.
She smiled and replied, "I'm not trying to turn you off. I'm trying to get a different channel."
