Several years ago, my high school principle, Carl Talbert, sent me a story about Joan, the town gossip. Joan was the self-appointed supervisor of the town's morals, and she kept sticking her nose into other people's business.
Several local residents were unappreciative of her activities, but feared her enough to maintain their silence. However, one afternoon, she made a mistake; she accused George, a local man, of being an alcoholic after she saw his pickup truck parked outside the town's only bar.
George, a dedicated Christian and man of few words, stared at her for a few moments and walked away without saying a word.
Later that evening, he parked his pickup truck in front of her house and left it there all night.
