"No Hi-Fives for Satan"

On Thursdays we have chapel, and this past Thursday we had a band called the Carpenter's Tools. They did praise and worship songs and then did a little liturgical dance, drama thingy to the song "Dare You to Move" by Switchfoot. One of the band members played the Jesus figure, one played the devil, and two others played demons, or bad people, to bring the main girl down.

So after chapel, we were all filing out of the gym, and the band members were in the crowd giving hi-fives to the kids. All of my third graders were going crazy, except for one - "Stanley." He stood there with a very somber look on his face - almost a glare. When the band member got to Stanley he was like - "What? You don't want to give me a hi-five?"

Stanley simply said, "No hi-fives for Satan."

The band member happened to be the guy who played the devil figure in the drama dance thing. He laughed in disbelief and was like, "But I'm not really Satan!" Stanley just shook his head at the man and walked away.

It was possibly the most hilarious moment at school thus far. AND it can be the new Christian slogan on all the t-shirts in Christian bookstores - "No hi-fives for Satan!"
