Is This Where Worship is Heading?

I recently found this video on YouTube. As you have time, watch it and then let me know what you think. Are they on to something? Or are they taking humor too far? Or, is there no humor in it whatsoever? Is it okay to laugh at ourselves?

  1. Oh My!!!!!!!!!!!

    That was hilarious!

    I don't think they are taking humor too far. I think they were spot on to make people think about what they do and why they do it.

  3. I have no trouble with humor or satire if it is done in good taste. Piano man? Does that mean I have to start calling you "All Toes on the Keys"?

  4. Sorry...no relationship to me...

    I wonder, has worship become so "scripted" that some of this video could be true?

    How do we determine what is "well-planned worship services" and "worship becoming a production?"

  6. One problem with thinking the piano man looks like me...he actually has more hair than me, or he could if he grew it out! I don't really appreicate people who shave what otherwise could be a good head of hair...maybe I am just jealous!

  7. I liked it. I especially like the out of town scoreboard they had running in the bottom left corner.

  8. It's freaking hilarious.

    And accurate, sadly to say.

    People cheer at ball games because their heart is in it.

    I would LOVE to be part of a worship experience where everyone present really had their heart in it. Oh, yeah, that will be heaven. Cool.
