Doing the stuff

Shortly after the late John Wimber, founder of the Vineyard movement, became a Christian, he became a voracious Bible reader. The Scriptures excited him. Finally, after weeks of reading about life-transforming miracles in the Bible and attending church services, John asked one of the lay leaders -"When do we get to do the stuff?"
"What stuff?" asked the leader.
"You know, the stuff here in the Bible" said John
"You know, like the stuff Jesus did - raising the people from the dead, healing the blind and the paralysed. You know, that stuff."
"Well, we don't do that anymore." The man said.
"You don't?"
"No."
"Well what do you do?" asked John.
"What we did this morning."
In frustration John responded "For that I gave up drugs?"
