"diverse but not too diverse" is the best joke in the piece because people actually think that way
We had people leave our church because "They" were coming to our church! And my family was the "They"
lotus 3.0 ?...Why? Every religion has racist people, if someone is a true Christian - who both listens to what God says and does it - they can’t be racist.
lotus 3.0 Buddhists are sexist.
Benjamin Miller ... Honest question, does a church *NEED* to be diverse for it to be a valid church?
@Protestant dude, stop.
You're somehow ignorant enough to think that that "introducing aggressive African rap music" is a thing that happens to traditional churches(?) but your ignorance isn't making you stop and try to learn more. Instead you've just had a go at someone for something that you made up.
And there's no need to be defensive about what they were saying. All we are told about the situation is that some random people were racist. There's no reason to leap in and say "no they weren't!".
You just have a strange mix of confidence and ignorance, and a mix of wanting to defend racism but by claiming it's not racism.
This Christian satire is comedic gold.
If you like him you might like Babylon Bee
Kyle What is wrong?
@@SamuelMoerbe lol. he WAS a poster child for good clean christian comedy. until he creeped on one too many women and his broad circle of enablers couldn't keep a lid on all his "sins".
@@proactivex yea and like any human he has struggles. And has even recently reached out about it. Talked about REAL issues. If anything everything he’s been through and his honesty about it has made me support him MORE. But your judgement is SUPER cool and not ANYTHING like the people these videos poke fun at 🤦
@@phillyphilly__lii5653 ok great. pray for me. speak in tongues for me. thanks.
"A Netflix Original Series..."
Lol that would be amazing but they would never do it..Very Liberal, anti Christian
“A PureFlix Original Series...”
I wish.
McJuggerNuggets is life Doesn’t Netflix have Christian shows?
@@epicteddy931 they do
"I mean, the pastor's main point: 157 characters. I can't tweet that."
Erin Bower well now they can (280 characters)
The joke is dated since now it's 240 characters but still funny
280
Until the untucked shirt comment I was actually concerned this was real.. Thank God for satire.
i mean that shows how good actors that they are
As soon as the guy at :30 starts talking I knew it was fake. He's not the greatest actor...
Call it what you will... it is sacrilege and God will not take kindly to that.
This is happenkng though, just not a show about it (to my knowledge).
@@preacher1965 I think they're making a point regarding modern attitudes today. It's a criticism of attitudes which defy what God meant the church to be, and so I don't personally think God is against this.
Frayed but no holes😂😂
"The humor of Andy Stanley with the body of Steven Furtick."
I lost it. 😂
I lost it too!
I love both of them. 😁
Both are heretical.
Ann Romey 😂😂💀💀
Both of those pastors are false pastors I would never go to their Church.
"God knows your heart."
I've lost track of how many times I've watched this but I laugh out loud at that part every time.
I need to point out that I watched this when it had 666 likes. You can thank me for getting you out of that danger zone to 667.
And I can't wait for the next one!!
Megan Echo rotfl gold !!!
😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not all heroes wear capes...**hat tip**
“Women in ministry”...crickets. 😂
Sounds like that church at least knows what the hell it's doing then
Patrick Parcivel
Nah but I do think that men should be the Pastors.
@@StarboyXL9 sounds like it's letting its politics get in the way of God's spirit*
@@firstname405 what does that even mean? The Bible is extremely clear - the role of church leadership is reserved for men.
@@QuantumParticle are you calling the bible a liar? How about get your politics out of God's Word
"Nick you scored r e a l l y high in need for accountability.
Wow-
And the men's groups here are amazing.
-you-your just gonna.. put that out there?
Hey God knows your heart.
-O.k."
Hahah! Dying!
Becca Bean that was so hilarious 😂
I had to pause the video so I could laugh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm on the floor! 😂😂😂
the understatement of the year!
His girl slides over a few inches😂
oh man, they nailed this
"Nick, you scored really high on need for accountability, the mens' groups here are great" I'm crying!!!!!!😂😂😂
ChillinInTheUniverse that got me too 😂😂
You’re just gonna put that out there?
HAHAHAHA right?
That didnt age well
@@mattwalter6207 I just started watching his videos, may I ask why would this joke not age well? thank you.
Thank you so much for this
The comedy really addresses the fact that we “shop” for a church in such an entertainment business style (deceiving ourselves that it is spiritual reasons), that we forget what is most important and sincere.
Nailed it. Funny for sure, but hopefully it gets us thinking too.
In total honesty, I went to that church for 7 years, my uncle is the youth pastor there and watching this we are all cracking up because we sat in that room so many times! It’s crazy!
"I think you're really going to love this place! They take relevance to a whole new level! This church identifies as interdenondenominational!"
I'm seriously going to be upset if there turns out to be no episode 2... I need to know what they pick!!
Amen!
We promise it's coming :)
What about ep. 3?
Can you guys PLEASE do one about how to dress to be on the worship team?? PLEASE:-) :-)
Ryan M Dunlap lol.. right
The 5 people who disliked this video clearly still haven't found the right church.
Eric Champlin I laughed so hard at this comment man 😂😂😂
80*
Eric Champlin I disliked the video because religion is cancer.
^ There's always that one person lol
Eric Champlin hahahaha 😂
This made me laugh when I moved I just googled "nearest Catholic church" lol
Gotta stick with God's one true church! Peace be with you!
Thats called the early church in action. Converted to orthodoxy 7 years ago, wont be going back.
Catholics are pretty cool. I just can't past the saints thing. I've heard the arguments and I think I understand the logic, but it still seems odd to me.
LOVE IT!!!! I'm a Southern Baptist, traditional church pastor, and I think this is hilarious!
Funny but sadly accurate.
"Women in ministry?"
Girl, it is literally called "First Baptist Church" what did you expect?
WonderfullyWeird there are some Baptist churches that accept that, just not a lot.
Women are not supposed to be allowed to preach.
1Ti 2:12 (KJV) But I suffer not a woman to teach, nor to usurp authority over the man, but to be in silence.
@@Raphaelkungfupanda Men write that ; it's NOT GODS WORD. IDIOT.
Maple cozy
2Ti 3:16 (KJV) All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
That’s incorrect. The bible was written by 40 men over a 1500 years period. All scripture is inspired by God (ie: God breathed the Word).
@@Raphaelkungfupanda NO. You are repeating men , not God.
This legitimately could be a hit show!!!
This is HILARIOUS!! Genius for whoever came up with this idea 😂😂😂
Miss Me 😂
This was one of the best videos I have ever seen.
Haha this is so hilarious -- "past the Osteen suit phase but hasn't gone full Giglio yet"
this is the third time i am watching your video and I love how you expose christianity in this generation, I hope ppl understant the irony.....I pray that it is a wake up call to our lukewarmnest
Preach it...
Love the weighing of the offering plate!!
I'm somewhere between humored and convicted. Excited to see where this goes! 👍🏻
Now that's an honest comment. God bless you.
Just found all this guy's videos -- what a hoot!!! He's hysterical!! Best one - trying to find a parking spot at church.
This is really creative, beautifully produced, and hilarious. Keep 'em coming.
WHAT?? NO COFFEE BAR???
"The pastor started untucking his shirts." Lol, I cannot imagine my pastor doing that, and frankly, I wouldn't want him to.
Aka, everything wrong with modern Christianity.
That is why I like alot of his christian scenes: they often are directed at "modern" christians, not against God.
This is aimed at an insane movement toward a non-biblical version of Christianity where it's more "cult of personality" around the pastor and relies on digital marketing and youthful design. Very little to do with scripture, but a ton of - "I'm OK, you're Ok" self help, daily affirmation jargon. I suppose if it feels good, do it, but it follows a specific plan and the pastor gets really rich.
LOVE THIS!! Stumbled across this but knew who John Crist was so I knew what to expect.
And SO TRUE. Too many of us are still looking for or are in a church because of HOW IT BENEFITS US. We all need to get a revelation/understanding of 1 Cor. 12:18, especially the phrase 'as it pleased HIM.' 🤨
Came back to this several years after watching it for the first time and just realized they filmed this in the church that I go to which is hilarious
We know just the place for ya!
I laughed. I cried. God help us.
Interdenondenominational 😂
Give people time and that will become a thing.
The way they called folks out...
Wow. Absolutely hilarious and sadly honest
LOL, nick scored real high in his need for accountability. understatement of the year
I would watch the frICK of this show. The fact that it says "episode one" puts a smile on my face.
"If u want to leave to catch the game"
Radiant is the name of the Church where my brother and his wife attend! 👍😆😁
'Woman in ministry?' ,,,,,,pause...'The parking situation, you gotta see it'
157 characters, I cant tweet that! so funny guys!
The tumblr bible
Indeed. Joke now, reality soon.
Try the #gifbible on twitter. [Not for everyone.]
David Wellman it’s the version of the Bible as loosely remembered, translated, or looked up from an online bible. So it’s the New American Bible in one passage with an eighth grader’s translation or remembrance of a bible verse in another passage, next to a verse from the American King James Version, next to a non-existent passage proving that Even eating the forbidden fruit caused periods is true (it was never explicitly said in the Bible, only that they’d have painful childbirth) So basically, its a satirical nonexistent bible that is an affront to all Christian faiths.
😂 LMAO
@@dpwellman That's what frightens me.
“The humour of Andy Stanley with the body of Steven Furtick” I lost it 🤦🏽♀️😂
“Or as mothers call it: ‘The Walk of Shame.’”
Oh can I relate 🤭😳
stormsparrow. Same. It’s just 😞
"full Giglio" lol
whose that?
Dave Washburn Agreed. Brilliant!
Dave Washburn please explain what "Giglio" is? I don't know and I was stuck on that joke the rest of the video...lol
Louie Giglio. Pastor of Passion City Church in Atlanta. He has some great videos on the Internet (find the one on Laminin and you will have your spirits lifted). The church is best known as where Chris Tomlin is worship leader.
Between the vid and the comments below this is pure Christian gold. Praise God for this content.
I can't wait for part 2!! Hilarious!
I'm dead.
Princess Bre how tho
Spencer Wilson laughter, Spencer. Laughter.
Haha
Don't say that.
To Christ Be The Glory why?.....
Scores high on 'needs acountability'!
You Prots are hilarious. Love all of you and hail to the Pope.
this is the best. how people find a church that tells them exactly what they already want to hear.
Hey, I know that church! It's Johnson's Ferry Baptist Church in Marietta, GA.
"...it's the tumblr bible"
can't wait for the next episode!
I love your comedy, keep it up, God bless you for sharing your gift with us all.
Please do episode 3 or more of these. Love it!!!!
i really love how they're chill christians in real life that make fun of rude christians.
"Inter-denon-denominational." Man I lost it.
YES!!! Please make more this is amazing!!!
“You need accountability.” She scoots over and everyone else automatically is thinking the same thing: PORN!!😂
I would watch the crap out of this
I'm a single male so every church is predictable. I'll be invited to their recycling program better known as their singles' group within the first 5 minutes
lance williams Maybe you could join the priesthood.
Hey, at least the church people talk to you as a single man. Single, divorced moms have the big scarlet D emblazoned on their chests. The church treats lepers better than it treats single moms. Ugh.
@@Etuffly I'm sorry you feel that way. It sucks when one feels ostracized. I hope you find a church body who loves and your family like Christ loves us all.
Texan1836 I felt that way too at the first church I went to over here. I'm twice divorced and a single mom. Then I found Elevation and haven't looked back. They welcomed me with literally open arms and the attitude there is one of acceptance and love not judgment. I hope you can find that too!
@@Etuffly Yes! I'm a single mom AND I have a child with severe nonverbal autism. While I've attended a few local churches, I've had trouble finding a church that is smaller and a good place for me and my son.
this was so good, the problems they brought up some of them I've actually heard it's pretty sad but the "frays no holes" part had me all 😂
What makes this funny its because behind the laughter and humor there's some truth in it
amazing work...can't wait for part two
Another work of art.
As my husband and I are in search of a church home this is absolutely hilarious !!!!
"You scored high in 'Need for Accountability" 🤣🤣🤣
Love it man haha. I went to a church that used the childcare walk of shame numbers on screen.
scottbaino it is a security and attention grabber aid. when you give your child to the children ministry you get a number on a sticker, your child gets a matching number. To pick up your child you have to have the matching sticker. if a problem arises during service the production team at church will flash the number on screen thus telling you to go to he kids area. I have flashed the number on screen for many reasons from child gets sick, temper tantrums to injury, bathroom accidents etc.
Yup that's it. Not saying it's bad. It's super efficient, but also makes everyone guess who's kid the number belongs to.
Jonny Miller but I do like the walk of shame title
Oh my goodness! My church is called Radiant Church! 😮
Soooooo hilarious!!!! Can't wait for part 2! We know you have a hit series on your hands!
“This is the sound board.” Points to a Hog lighting console 😂 Sorry, I’m a production tech, and I notice these things.
Oh, yeah... the church shopping thing. Been there, done that. Still doing it.
(Yes, some Christians have a great sense of humor and can laugh at themselves!)
Lots of searing social commentary in this. I loved it!
This needs to be an actual show.
I'll watch it
The production quality on this is absolutely spot on...JUST like the show!!
"The pastor's main point, 157 characters, I can't tweet that."
This was a great idea. Seriously hilarious!
Brilliant, just brilliant. Love it!
yall are FANTASSSSTIIICCCCC!!!! NEW FAN just seen 3 videos and I'm Hooked. not cheesy, not trashy. good clever clean writing, which is more creative AND provides God more info to your hilarious heads !! keep it up !!
"I can't tweet that." lols
The video opened w/ the premise that they "just moved to the area". Then, they sit down on the couch and the premise becomes "the churches we go to now just aren't doing it for us". So what is it? New to the area... or switching churches? And they BOTH just moved into the area? Don't tell me they are living together. This story has so many holes. I see why he needs that accountability group.
TEN THIRTY ONE Actually, the story's frayed, but no holes.
That sounds like a great name for a new church plant
I noticed that too, that they moved, but their current churches aren't doing it... and ya a couple other things too...
Simple: they're both college students new to a college town. They both described churches they were involved with in their hometown. Besides, stop trying to read too much into it. it's just silly.
The couple comes off to me as a pair of bad actors. Seems staged.
“frayed, but no holes.” Thank the Lord.
"Nick, you scored real high in need for accountability" DYING 😆😆😆
I need to be in episode 3 or I'm shooting it myself here and ripping the intro.
This is amazing.
Can't wait for part II!
I'm an orthodox believer and this guy kills me! Sooo awesome
Every part of this video was comedy GOLD! Should totally be a real show! Keep it up Crist & crew! (PS WTFrick is "interde-non-denominational"?!?!?lol
"Not too diverse " lol dead
This should be a Netflix series.
Absolutely brilliant!
It's the tumblr bible...
Whose watching this in 2019?
It's really enough to make me cry!!!!!!
Hillarious. Keep 'em coming, John!
