Laughing Out Loud

I was talking with a man this morning who asked me what the preacher would preach about on Sunday. I told him it would undoubtedlly, “be about sin. He’s against it, you know.”

Now that’s an old saw, but he begin to laugh, softly at first, then louder. I wasn’t sure what his laught meant. Was he laughing because so few people are against sin? Was it because someone would have the courage to say so? Or was it because we have reached the place in our society where sin is a laughing matter?
