The pastor was walking through the Sunday School wing one week and stopped in to the 4th grade class. While he was there, he decided to see what the kids were grasping. "Joey" he said, "who knocked down the walls of Jericho?" Joey said "Don't look at me, pastor, I didn't do it!" The pastor looked at the teacher for an explanation. "Well pastor, if Joey said he didn't do it, he didn't do it."
The pastor brought that story to the Church Board and when they heard it, the congregational president said, "Pastor, let's just fix the walls and take it out of the property budget."
