Thanks to the magic of Hulu, I invite you to watch this very funny and smart episode of The Office, which I referred to yesterday in my sermon. No one talks in pop culture about being wise, but wisdom is exactly what Jim demonstrates concerning his marriage vows when he finds himself in a potentially compromising situation with The Office’s attractive new brunette, Kathy. Even Dwight, in his own way, does the same.
I need to commend this episode to couples to whom I’m offering premarital counseling.
A chilling note: Stanley, the show’s serial adulterer, walks into Jim’s hotel room and sees Kathy there. “Be careful. It gets easier and easier.” I’m sure Proverbs couldn’t have said it better.
