Paw Paw for Jesus 

A phrase from a spoken short story which aired on This American Life, May 22, 1998. A woman stranded in the town of Paw Paw, MI (It's near Dowagiac, don't cha know) finds the owner of a gas station very unhelpful. She recalls seeing the sign outside a church as she came into town, which proclaimed "Paw Paw for Jesus." She is angry the woman won't help her and starts shouting "Paw Paw for Jesus" to remind her of her Christian duty but becomes slightly obsessed with the phrase.
Paw Paw for Jesus!
