My Favorite Christmas Present (So Far)

— Monday, December 8th, 2008 —

Last night I spoke at one of my favorite churches (non-Highview, that is), Living Hope Baptist Church in Bowling Green, Kentucky. While there, I was presented with this piece by Richard Carwile, adult discipleship pastor there, on behalf of the pastoral staff team.

Who knew they even made Coke Zero lamps? Who knew you could purchase them on eBay?

This matchless present now is permanently fixed in my study. It has already sparked many metaphors, sermon titles, and so forth.

    Who would have thought people like Coke Zero?

  2. Chip Lewis

    Hilarious.

    Mine would be just the plain DC version, but Zero still rocks the lamp world.

  3. Leslie

    so, my question is, does the can still have Coke in it?

  4. Devin Maddox

    There cannot be coke zero in it, because Dr. Moore has possession of it. Unconsumed coke zero cannot be in his presence. It is against his nature.

    Does that mean that Dr. Pepper is not among the elect?

  6. Richard Carwile

    Glad you liked it….it was much easier to find than a Johnny Cash bobblehead with an ESV bible in his hand.

    It is not for us, but for Dr. Moore to decide what he will and will not consume. It is safe to say, however, that Dr. Pepper has as much opportunity as any other fountain drink.

    What inscription shalt thou mark on the shade?:
    A. “Coke Zero — Lighter than you think.”
    B. ” Thy Coke is a Lamp unto My Zero”

    I love lamp!

    Kind of tacky. But, a bottle of San Pelegrino would be even tackier.
