One recent Sunday, a young boy arrived to his Sunday school class late.©OFFICEJOKES.NET

His teacher knew that the boy was usually very prompt and asked him if anything was wrong.©OFFICEJOKES.NET

The boy replied no, that he was going to go fishing, but that his dad told him that he needed to go to church instead.©OFFICEJOKES.NET

The teacher was very impressed and asked the boy if his father had explained to him why it was more important to go to church rather than to go fishing.©OFFICEJOKES.NET

To which the boy replied, "Yes, ma'am, he did. My dad said that he didn't have enough bait for both of us."
