If you're asked to do a calling you're not happy about.

"Are you sure this is inspired of God? I have been seeking revelation about my service in the church and that doesn't exactly jibe with my promptings. Can you go back and pray about it one more time?"

Most bishops will usually fold at this point, and you go unscathed. He suspects you're bullshitting him, but he's not sure.
