A minister and a cab driver pass away and are waiting at the pearly gates with Saint Peter.

Saint Peter asks the cab driver, “What is your name and where do you do for a living?”

The cab driver says, “My name is Phil and I’m a cab driver.” Saint Peter lets him in and gives him a silk robe and a golden staff.

Then the minister steps up and says “My name is David and I’m a minister.”

Saint Peter lets him in and gives him a burlap robe and a wooden staff. And the minister asks,

“Why do I get a wooden staff and burlap robe, while he gets the good stuff?”

Saint Peter replies, “While you preached, people slept.”

“While he drove, people prayed.”
