AMES, IA—After six years leading worship at Redeemer On The Rock, Joe Miller has been asked to step down after church leadership confirmed the rumor that Joe had turned thirty years old.
“We were disappointed to discover the stories were true,” said senior pastor Mike Lee. “Honestly though-- we could see the signs of aging. He started wearing boot-cut jeans, getting a normal haircut…even stopped wearing non-prescription glasses. Then he cut back the number of extra choruses he added on to “Way Maker”, and quit informing us between each song how to posture our hearts. We knew age was starting to catch up with him.”
Sources say Miller took the news hard, stooping so low as to offer to play tambourine if he could only stay in the praise band. While the church leadership agreed older people were allowed to play the tambourine, the pastors did not feel they could, in good conscience, allow Joe to debase himself like that. They did kindly offer to give Joe strong references if he wanted to go play the organ for the old fogies at the Lutheran church down the street.
Joe reportedly landed an interview to be the worship leader at another evangelical church but was turned away at the door when he arrived wearing a starched polo.

"This is way easier," said Democratic Governor Abigail Spanberger. "We're tackling the real issue, which is Republicans being allowed to vote at all. There will be no more campaigning, no more counting ballots. That stuff is such a hassle anyway."
"They're here among us," alien specialist Donny Marcus told the press. "I've been studying these beings for years — they're smart, and they're resourceful. It took no time at all for them to defraud Tim Walz's government of billions through Medicare and Medicaid fraud. The government didn't even ask why they needed the money; they just forked it over. The invasion people have been anticipating has been happening right under our noses all along."
"The Democratic Party would be winning in a landslide if it weren't for that confounded Constitution," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "We have so many great ideas on how to win, but people keep saying things like 'Hey, that's illegal' or 'That's literally a crime.' It's becoming disheartening."
