I didn't actually ask him that. I considered it because I know him pretty well but because I don't know him
really well I wasn't sure if he'd get that I was teasing that his church doesn't fit the stereotype of what a black church is.
What he did say is that he heard me singing and almost called me up to do a number. That struck enough terror in my heart to not make any jokes about the congregation's singing.
Speaking of cracks about Scandinavian Lutherans, a speaker at a multi-denominational event here last month asked how many in the audience were Lutheran. A number of people raised their hands. The speaker said "See, you
can get your hands above your head." Ba dum bum.
