    Art…Denver’s Oldest Virgin

    Posted on Tuesday 22 July 2008 by Greg @ 6:39 am
    Filed under: Rants

    My buddy Art (yes the one that I tell stories about) won a radio contest yesterday for being Denver’s oldest virgin. I was the one who actually called him up and told him about it. I had overheard it while scanning the radio stations (a bad habit of mine) on the way home from the gym yesterday.

    I heard the interview between him and Lewis and Floorwax, the two DJs of the show, on the radio. These guys, who tend to get pretty risque at times, asked Art why he was still a virgin at the age of 45. Was he saving himself for the right woman? His answer was AWESOME! He said,

    “No! I’m saving myself for the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ!”

    The tone of the radio show changed. You could tell these two radio jocks respected him for his boldness and sincerity. They implied that virgin men could be a little effeminate and Art shot back with “Hey, I just got back from 2 1/2 years in Iraq. I had my truck blown up by I.E.D.s twice and have had sniper rounds whiz by my head.” The tone changed again. Art may be a virgin but he is the last guy you would want to call a wimp. Like he told a guy in the army who was making fun of him for still being a virgin, “You know what’s worse than being a virgin? Getting your rear kicked by one.” Conversation over.

    As the rest of the 10 minute or so radio interview unfolded Art made it clear that he looked at his body as a temple of the Holy Spirit and that, as a 45 year old virgin, he uses all of that pent up energy to serve the Lord Jesus Christ.

    Maybe we should come out with a new movie called “The 45 Year Old Virgin” starring my buddy Art. We could follow him around and watch his exploits for Jesus as he shares the gospel with everything that moves. We could watch as he consecrates his life to advance the kingdom of Christ. It wouldn’t be a comedy. It would be a documentary that would rock all of our worlds.

    Oh by the way he won front row tickets to The Police concert last night at Redrocks for being Denver’s oldest virgin. I can’t wait to hear about the people he told about Jesus. Who knows maybe he got to witness to Sting himself?

    May God raise up an army of consecrated soldiers just like Art to advance his kingdom cause!

    Signed, Greg Stier

      • WOW!! Thanks for sharing Art’s story, Greg! This story trumps my previous favorite ‘Art’ adventure when he followed you into the men’s room and scared the waste product out of the guy at the wall.
        And thanks, Art, for showing all in your circle of influence that a Christian man DOES NOT equal a wimpy man! So many people in this world (even- and especially- in church) seem to believe that a Christian man is kind and gentle and passive and… emasculated. Stick a finger down my throat!! Thanks for being a GREAT Man of God and role model, brother! Not only for teens but women and men who need desperately to be shown how Jesus Christ Manifests Himself in men and women today.
        Praisin’ God for you, Art.

        o come on! What BS! There no reward for being a virgin because God does,nt exist! And even if he does he could,nt give a crap about us here on Earth. And as for Jesus Christ, its a nice story but its all a myth Folks!
