Would you like a liturgy with that steak?

During this week's sermon, I repeatedly mis-pronounced a phrase. The term in question is "Agnus Dei". When I originally ran across the phrase, I had mistakenly read it as "Angus Dei". As I read about the term, I began pronouncing it incorrectly in my mind. While studying, I found the proper pronounciation, (and spelling) but for some odd reason, but because I had already ingrained the word into my mind, I can't seem to say it properly. Even last night at church, as I shared about my error with some people who wondered about it, my mouth would open and the incorrect version would slip out. In the sermon, nearly every instance I refer to it as Angus, which as most people know is a type of cow. So, with egg on my face (and apparently beef on my mind) I posted the message on the site in spite of the error.
