Ex-Missionary's Humanitarian Travel Plans Thwarted as Aid Recipients Relocate to His Hometown

Local Man Finds Exotic Locale Empty And Returns Home to New Neighbors

In a hilarious twist of fate, 22-year-old Chad Whitebread's summer mission trip to the remote island of Faroffistan ended before it began. Upon arrival, Chad discovered the entire population had emigrated to his hometown of Suburbia, USA.

"I was all set to save souls and build wells," lamented Chad, "but the place was emptier than a Joel Osteen sermon on humility."

Unbeknownst to Chad, while he was busy fundraising and learning how to say "Jesus loves you" in Faroffistani, the entire island's population had packed up and moved to America, settling in Chad's very own neighborhood.

"It's ironic," Chad mused, "I ignored my immigrant neighbors for years, thinking I needed to travel halfway across the world to find people who needed Jesus. Turns out, they were right under my nose the whole time."

Back in Suburbia, the Faroffistani refugees have set up a thriving community, complete with authentic cuisine and colorful festivals. They've even started a "Reverse Mission" program, aimed at educating clueless American youth about cultural sensitivity and the complexities of global migration.

Meanwhile, Chad's parents are struggling to adjust to their new Faroffistani neighbors. "They keep trying to feed us something called 'ethnic food,'" Chad's mother complained. "I miss the good old days when the most exotic thing on our street was Mrs. Johnson's questionable tuna casserole."

As for Chad, he's considering a new career in immigration law or perhaps opening a fusion restaurant. "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em," he shrugged. "Plus, I hear there's a real market for avocado toast with a side of Faroffistani spices."

Piper Rebukes Driscoll, Defends Stripper Sword-Swallower

Piper Defends Male Strippers from Driscoll, Says Faith is "Erotic to the Core" MINNEAPOLIS, MN - In a surprising turn of events, prominent evangelical leader John Piper has come out in defense of male strippers, arguing that their profession is a valid expression of Christian spirituality. The controversy began when fellow pastor Mark Driscoll condemned male strippers as "ungodly" and "a threat to the moral fabric of society." Driscoll's comments sparked outrage among some in the Christian community, including Piper, who quickly rushed to the defense of the much-maligned exotic dancers. "Mark Driscoll clearly has a very narrow and repressed view of human sexuality," Piper told reporters. "As I've said many times, the Christian faith is erotic to the core. God created us as sexual beings, and that includes the male stripper." Piper went on to cite the "Song of Songs" as biblical evidence that God delights in human sensu...

…Unless the Dispies Were Wrong (Again) Left Behind: A Practical Guide to Surviving the Apocalypse Redmond, WA — So, you've been left behind.

As the world descends into chaos, here's your step-by-step guide to navigating the great tribulation: 1. Acceptance and Denial First, take a deep breath.

When asked about his citizenship, Anderson reportedly launched into an impromptu sermon, declaring, "I'm a citizen of Heaven, brother! Let me tell you about the Good News!" As the bemused agent tried to detain him, Anderson proclaimed, "You can't detain me! I'm free to believe because I'm Arminian!" The agent, mishearing the theological term, immediately sprang into action, shouting, "Armenian? We've got ourselves an illegal!" Chaos ensued as agents attempted to deport the protesting pastor to Armenia. "I said Arminian, not Armenian!" Anderson...
