Regarding the Balaam story, I have gotten sinners to look into a Bible
for the first time in years when I promised them that God could even
speak through Balaam's ass.  They usually don't think in King James
terms of an animal, but of a part of the anatomy that sits on that
animal.  They conjure up an image of a man bending over with his pants
down and a voice emerging therefrom.  I *MAKE* them look it up and see
for themselves.  This then results in a discussion of the surrounding
circumstances, and turns into a witness.
