PLANO, TX — A local congregation drenched their pastor with a cooler full of Welch's grape juice after he delivered an absolute banger of a sermon this past Sunday, according to one eye-witness report.
"We were coming into the home stretch of the service," Pastor David Cooper told reporters. "I knew I had to take things home fast, so I busted out a killer analogy and tied it in with a moving invitation at the last minute while the pianist began to softly play 'I Surrender All,' and BOOM, it all came together. I'm just thankful things really resonated with the congregation."
Following Pastor Cooper's final words, a crowd swarmed him onstage and dumped a giant cooler full of Welch's on his head while congratulating him on an absolute touchdown of a message.
"Aw man, I didn't know if he could pull it off," commented congregant Greg Snyder. "The odds were stacked against him, I think I heard he was recovering from a bad cold and a late-season vocal cord injury but then there it was, just a perfect sermon with a killer finish. Couldn't have wished for a better ending to a Sunday service."
As of publishing time, Pastor Cooper was enjoying some much-needed downtime with his family and said he plans to return next week with an even better sermon. "I won't rest on my laurels, I need to start looking forward to putting in a 110% effort next Sunday," he said.
