Collector Cards


I know that a lot of people collect cards. I used to have a pretty impressive collection of basketball cards myself. My brothers and I also did our fair share of buying and trading baseball cards. But how cool would it be if collecting "gospel preacher" cards were popular. I'd collect 'em!

The card could have their picture on the front and information on the back --- there could be special "rookie" cards (from their first year of preaching).

I realize that this might cause many extra false prophets to rise up so they could have their very own card, but the catch would be - if they weren't preaching truth or turned out to be a false prophet, their card values would plummet and be worthless.

Okay, this is a horrible idea.

And, preachers struggle enough with sin and preacher jealousy. I could imagine that a preacher's card holding a lot more value than other preacher's cards could cause that preacher to struggle with pride and the other with jealousy.

But at first thought - this seemed to be a good idea. (I still think I would collect them if they existed)
