This video checks in the with denominations as they discuss their various plans for Easter weekend. #cwac #christiancomedy #christianhumor #churchcomedy #calvinism #denominations
I'm a Conservative Catholic and I find all of these skits funny. Nice job on us Catholics. Yes, our church pews are stuffed for Easter and Christmas. We call them Bi-annual Catholics. A few may stay for a few weeks but they soon disappear only to pop up for Christmas. They remind me of Matthew 13: 1-23 (seeds on rocky soil).
To be fair, at least in Nigeria, our churches are more full on Easter and Christmas cause there are less masses. Like a church that would usually have a 6am, 8 am, 10am and 6pm mass would only have a 6am and 9am mass on Easter and Christmas.
To be fair, this is ALL denominations. I grew up Baptist, and just started going to a little old country Presbyterian church, and all my life I remember my parents mentioning certain church members that only entered the doors on Christmas, Easter, weddings and funerals
@@genewilliams617 Because pretty much everyone in the modern era associates Easter with Resurrection Sunday, so picking one or the other is pretty pedantic.
I'll never forget preaching on Easter in a church that was in the midst of a struggle to either Reform, or Deform. They had come out of a failing mainline denomination and had lost almost all biblical teaching for the prior 10 years before my call. I preached on 1 Corinthians 15 first Easter Sunday I was there. The looks of surprise, hope, joy, anger, confusion, and hate on so many faces was bewildering. Preaching on the resurrection hope of Christ really brings out the tension and distinctive between easy believism, American religiosity, and Biblical Christianity.
As one who has starved for the preaching and teaching of God's true word, I would've been in the surprise, hope, and joy category 💕 Bless you for preaching God's word! 🙏
@Chris Johnson Unfortunately many who were growing in the faith were not welcomed. The church was fractured and while I was called by many people on the search team who wanted to see a return to biblical Christianity, there were more people in a camp that were hostile and preferred for private spirituality of easy believism. Ultimately I resigned as the church was continuing to fracture and some of the sheep who were growing were becoming targets of attacks by those who disapproved of biblical instruction. Over the course of 2 years things quickly entrenched as an "us" vs "them" mentality. I failed to notice the cracks and fractures early enough to work to prevent them and spent more of my time pursuing the directives of the spiritual leaders who wrote my oversight which was to grow the church. Because I spent time discipling and evangelizing, I didn't spend needed time and energy on working through the conflicts and disagreements that were brewing. By the time I resigned I learned that some of the deep-seated resentment among different people was decades long. I resigned in the hope that the Lord would provide for the healing of the people with different leadership, or that he would continue the work of separating the sheep from the goats. Many who were growing in faith found other churches to attend. Some remained. The Lord has sense called me and my family to other congregations to pastor and serve. It was a sad thing, and I cannot say I was blameless in all things, although I did remain blameless in my preaching the gospel. I certsinly should have been wiser in recognizing the need to heal, rsther than the stated desire to grow. Ultimately when I shared that need within the congregation it was made clear my leadership was not longer wanted. The good news is that the Lord works through imperfect servants declaring his perfect word. I'm thankful for those I got to see come to faith, baptize, and grow in the Lord. As one of my wiser, older mentors said to me "you witnessed that the word always does its work. Sometimes that is to soften hearts to receive the gospel. Sometimes that is to harden hearts against the gospel". I'm thankful for the time I had there, the experiences and service I and my family got to engage in, and I'm thankful that ministry is not ultimstely dependent on me, but is a work of God which I'm blessed to participate in. I pray for my old congregations that the Lord will continue to heal and grow them into Christ likenesses through his mercy and grace.
@@GoodGuyGaming3preaching of the word may be neglected at the peril of the people. Hosea 4:6 Sometimes people just don't want it 2 Timothy 4:3-4. Thanks to Jesus for sending the Spirit into your heart.
I love this because the Lutheran minister is wearing a t-shirt that shows ML nailing the theses, and the shirt says, "The Door Is Fine". My father is Lutheran; my mother, sister and I are Catholic. My father used to joke that the Catholic church excommunicated ML because the doors were made of glass. The t-shirt reminds me of that joke.
If the world knew about Orthodoxy the world would turn to Orthodoxy. The devil hides it behind ignorance and the news media plastering stories of the Roman Catholic Scandals on the news. The truth is hard to find in the world and only by asking Christ will you be led to where he dwells, where HIS body is on Earth. Christ is risen.
Actually, if Pascha is ONLY a week away, the Priest has already been doing services at least once a day for nearly two months - and by now is in Church almost 24/7 today and for the next week. He doesn't have TIME for a meeting. And besides that, he already has everything he's going to do laid out in a book that hasn't changed in any substantial way in a few centuries. No planning needed : )
At the Episcopalian Churches I've attended, we used Easter as a good time to reach out to families with young children. The plan was to move them from CaEo to more regular attendance and getting the kids in Sunday School. Like the Presbyterian, we celebrated the resurrection weekly. Easter was a good time to welcome young families to their new church home. (And we meant to be that home.)
I’m surprised the Lutheran comment on the crucified staff member wasn’t something like, “Well at least some of you are getting over your anti-crucifix hang-ups.”
Big Eva… Nondenominational I attended a nondenominational church one Easter. I was sitting next to an older woman who was a friend of mine and had invited me there. She and I about went through the floor when they started showing one of those popular movies where Christ is ripped apart, nailed and stabbed, all bloody and being dragged to the cross….on HUGE SCREENS ( 3 of them in the front of the church ). Pretty much everybody who was over age 30 in the congregation had their mouths open and were covering their kids eyes and ears. It was just unbelievable that they would do/showsomething like that on a nice, sunny, Easter morning with everyone there with their families. I never went back again.
It's a real life event of something that happened to our Lord and Saviour. It's like you guys know that Jesus suffered and was crucified. But you don't KNOW he suffered and was crucified.
I don't think the movie is something for Easter. For good Friday, most definitely. On Easter, we should focus on Christ's resurrection. But right now, I'm assuming the church does not celebrate good friday. I don't think we should forget that our Saviour was crucified on such a gruesome way for our sins. If we truly realise the way our Saviour suffered, we'll be more determined to avoid the occasion of sin.
@@EzioAuditoreDaFirenze99I agree with that, sometimes the gore is so over the top it’s less about the religious significance and more like a horror movie
I am Presbyterian and I love this! Your best! You had me at "Estar=Easter, right?" 🤣 That is every seminar student in our church. Break it down to the Latin and Greek formation. And I love the end! Uh bru! Have you read the Bible?😂😂

Oh for Catholics, we have so many services leading up to Easter. All the priest are burnt out by Sunday. Palm Sunday or Passion Sunday the week before is usually our longest Sunday Mass (note I said Sunday). Then Holy Thursday, we in Philadelphia, P.A. are lucky to have Chrism Mass that morning, a special service where the Archdiocese gathers to receive their yearly allotment of Blessed Oils and Chrisms, that the Bishop fleshly blessed during that Mass. I like taking both Catholic and Protestant friends to that Mass. Holy Thursday Night, another Passion Liturgy. After that Mass, the Church is stripped bare for remembrance of Good Friday, Beautiful and Eerie when done well. Good Friday, 3 hour prayer service (Noon to 3 P.M.) honoring the Passion of Christ. Then pre-sanctified service, not at regular Mass. Saturday Morning, no service. Saturday Evening/ Afternoon the Longest Mass of the Year. With the most readings. The Easter Vigil Mass. So Many readings. If the parish is lucky, we celebrate the Sacraments of Initiation for those becoming Catholic. Then regular 2-6 Sunday Mass schedule for Easter Sunday. All the Priest are exhausted by sunrise so the Evening Masses are not skipped and You can see how tired the Priest are after 5, 6, 7, or 8 P.M. Masses Thank You for beingnice to Catholics in the video. Sincerely in Xto (Christo) Mike B. B. From Philly, P.A. U.S.A.
Hilarious! I attend a Church of Christ and while I've heard of CoCs not celebrating holidays...my church celebrates both Christmas and Easter. For Easter we usually have a sermon specially dedicated to the resurrection followed to a pot luck lunch after services and then an egg hunt for the kids. I guess we're the black sheep of the CoC family. We sometimes get called "liberal" even though theologically I'd consider us pretty conservative.
We understand that there is only ONE God, so eating something sacrificed to idols, or celebrating holidays aint the problem. Being a stumbling block is what we avoid. 1 Corinthians 8 the whole chapter but more specifically verse 9
@@robertdeuel4332 Me personally? No, I have no issues with instrumental music in church... but I do have a caveat. If the instruments are so loud that you can't hear yourself or any of the other singers in the congregation, it kind if kills the mood for me. Our church still holds to the acapella singing during worship and it is really just a preference for me now. I didn't come from a church background to begin knew next to nothing about CoC before finding my current church home. My only experience with worship practices were always singing accompanied with some kind of musical instrument like piano or guitar. My first time at a CoC where they only do acapella singing was a little weird and strange to me. Overtime though, I've come to appreciate it and enjoy it. No one in my congregation considers it to be sinful or disorderly to have instrumental music. I guess it's mainly just tradition and habit that we don't have instruments.
@Donald J. Proulx III thanks for responding. I minister at a Christian Church (not Disciples of Christ) and was asking because the term Church of Christ is broad. Non instrumental Churches of Christ tend to hold if the does not prescribe an aspect of worship. It is forbidden in corporate worship. Where as Christian Churches/Churches of Christ (instrumental) often hold as long as the Bible does not condemn it, then it's open to conscience. So, I was seeking some clarification. It is encouraging to hear your church family has a preference but does not elevate to an extreme issue. God bless!
@@robertdeuel4332 It was a year or two after joining my church that I learned that some CoCs held to the view that if it wasn't prescribed or shown as examples in the Bible (specifically new testament because old testament contains lots of instrumental use for worship) than it was either sinful, dishonorable or disorderly within the corporate worship context. I always found that unusual and weird. I have always seen it as a Romans 14 issue and a matter of conscience. The first time I was out of town and visited a local CoC wherever I was, that's when I first discovered that viewpoint. It was interesting and a little uncomfortable for sure but I'm very glad I am where I am, lol.
I said it before and I'll say it again: the channel says Calvinist but I am convinced you are Lutheran. MAYBE a little Presbyterian. It's ok! EMBRACE the 95, and don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about. God bless, brother. Keep them coming.
As a Reformed Baptist, we don't really have an Easter service. If you show up and we happen to be preaching on the resurrection because that's related directly to the text we're already going through, then cool beans for you, but we don't really deviate for anything from our standard exposition of the text we're already in.
We did a special sermon, carefully picked hymns, and had an Easter egg hunt for the kids, and developmentally disabled adults then we had a luncheon afterwards. We celebrate with food a lot.
Okay, you got me to subscribe. I loved how your Reformed guy tells the progressive to read 1 Cor 15 and all the Gospels! Now do "denominations discuss liturgy"!
The bunnies are wearing parachutes because non denom/big eva saw the Thanksgiving episode of WKRP. "Turkeys are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement"!
I had a hard time following the conversation. Since I'm a Reformed Baptist, I'd ask that you please use small words so I'll be sure to understand next time. Just kidding. I love your videos!
You do understand that in the Midwest and the Great Plains, Methodists are sort of Baptist Lite. My grandmother was a Methodist and belonged to the WCTU. If anything, whacky Methodists are Catholic Lite, using a communion service that reads like the first English language Mass after Vatican II and offering ashes on Ash Wednesday.
I remember reading Easter comes from the Old English (Anglo-Saxon days like 8th century) word for Resurrection. I know Pascha is the Greek word for Resurrection.
Yup. People who try to tie East to Ishtar worship (zero historical evidence as inspiringphilosophy has pointed out) miss the fact that much of the Christian world calls it Pascha. Easter is mostly Western Christians, if I'm not mistaken.
I’ve been to too many Methodist services where the pastor preached to the congregation as if they were kindergarteners. The pastor might as well dress like an Easter bunny
One Easter I chose to visit a church that turned out to be progressive, and literally that's exactly what they taught. It would have been an actual good sermon without the heresy bit. I'm pretty sure that's also the only time I heard outright heresy during a Sunday service.
The Christian Left is guilty of spewing heresy. And most of the negative things Christian conservatives are accused of are things Christian liberals are guilty of. There's one nut who thinks the meaning of Easter is not Jesus defeating death, but instead thinks Easter is about listening to women preach resurrection, switching the sword for the cross, rejecting the ways of empire and rising up for the oppressed, and paradise for the humble and power for the marginalized. The guy also thinks prayer is somehow a scam. Christians who jump on the prayer bashing bandwagon immediately forfeit their credibility. Christians who bash prayer after shootings aren't Christians.
I noticed the Orthodox wasn’t there. That’s fitting since he’ll show up a week later and miss the meeting
Well, they're all talking about Easter. Now, if you want to talk Pascha, then the Orthodox will be there...
Orthodox here. That was funny
Mom is protestant, Dad is Greek Orthodox. 2 easters, 2 Christmases....... life is good! 😊

If you show up and we happen to be preaching on the resurrection because that's related directly to the text we're already going through, then cool beans for you, but we don't really deviate for anything from our standard exposition of the text we're already in.
Thankfully the Lutheran asked that question. Thanks to my Reformed Baptist in clarifying the answer
The last one was perfect!
As soon as I saw Big Eva I knew it was gonna be crazy
That Roman Catholic one had me in fits of giggles
LMAO I feel cheated as a Methodist my pastor hasn't dressed as the Easter Bunny yet. Church of Christ has absolutely no chill 😂
he really said "real live crucifixion!" hahahahaha
WKRP turkey drop with bunny rabbits!
We did a special sermon, carefully picked hymns, and had an Easter egg hunt for the kids, and developmentally disabled adults then we had a luncheon afterwards. We celebrate with food a lot.
I live in Tennessee a local church dropped Easter eggs out of a helicopter
dude, the Presbyterian content kills me.
Absolutely delightful your take especially on the Progressive Minister who said the resurrection wasn't real
Wait wait... can we 86 the big Eva crucifixion, but keep the parachute buns? 😆🧡
The Catholic CEO 😅😅
Bunnies in parachutes. Sound almost like WKRP and Turkeys.
Okay, you got me to subscribe. I loved how your Reformed guy tells the progressive to read 1 Cor 15 and all the Gospels!
Now do "denominations discuss liturgy"!
The ‚Resurrection on ice‘ got me crying 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can’t 😂😂😂😂😂
Hey, it’s the apostle Paul calling…😂
Non-dom
Yup, we have to outdo ourselves every year!
Lol
"You dress like an Easter egg...so that makes sense." 😂
Many Laugh out Louds from Scotland 😂😂😂😂
Stop with these denominational skits! They're so funny,but do I want more? Yes!😂
The bunnies are wearing parachutes because non denom/big eva saw the Thanksgiving episode of WKRP.
"Turkeys are hitting the ground like bags of wet cement"!
Wow this gotta be the best one yet loooooooooool
Hey but Jesus won, didn't he? That's beautiful. That's my guy right there.
Superior Theology for the win!
but parachuting bunnies?!? THAT would be cool to see!
We used the term “Creasters” rather than CEO Catholic, a combo for Christmas and Easter, like the CEO term!
"Just like all the gospels" 🤣
Lutheran here I agree to us Easter is just a long Weekend. Thats why he Said nothing about it 😄
As a Catholic, don’t forget that we have to fast the Friday before.
Love it, missed Hillsong on this one!
I had a hard time following the conversation. Since I'm a Reformed Baptist, I'd ask that you please use small words so I'll be sure to understand next time.
Just kidding. I love your videos!
Christmas/Easter Only, indeed!
I love these!😂
Love these so much
As a Pentecostal myself, I gotta say that not one of us is going to want to associate with the Grammys, or Prom night, or that other thing.
You do understand that in the Midwest and the Great Plains, Methodists are sort of Baptist Lite. My grandmother was a Methodist and belonged to the WCTU.
If anything, whacky Methodists are Catholic Lite, using a communion service that reads like the first English language Mass after Vatican II and offering ashes on Ash Wednesday.
I love Big Eva.
Loved the Irish Catholic Priest. And the CEO's thing js sad but true.
As God is my witness.......I thought bunnies could fly.
Raised Roman Catholic. You nailed it!!!
Wait til the pastor finds out he has to undergo an actual full Roman crucifixion
CEO oh I love that
I remember reading Easter comes from the Old English (Anglo-Saxon days like 8th century) word for Resurrection. I know Pascha is the Greek word for Resurrection.
I thought that pascha referred to Unleavened Bread? Same idea though.
@@lilafeldman8630 pascha like Passover
Yup. People who try to tie East to Ishtar worship (zero historical evidence as inspiringphilosophy has pointed out) miss the fact that much of the Christian world calls it Pascha. Easter is mostly Western Christians, if I'm not mistaken.
I’ve been to too many Methodist services where the pastor preached to the congregation as if they were kindergarteners. The pastor might as well dress like an Easter bunny
If you love Jesus, you're gonna put parashoots on bunnies... Hahahaha... So good.
What is up with that orange bowtie... jab at the Irish RC guy?? 😂
Well done!
The catholic one is so funny!
Angligang left out again 😭
Church of Christ sure sounds a lot like an IFB in this one. 😂
Im not pentacostal but Im really feeling that John Deere hoodie
One Easter I chose to visit a church that turned out to be progressive, and literally that's exactly what they taught. It would have been an actual good sermon without the heresy bit. I'm pretty sure that's also the only time I heard outright heresy during a Sunday service.
The Christian Left is guilty of spewing heresy. And most of the negative things Christian conservatives are accused of are things Christian liberals are guilty of.
There's one nut who thinks the meaning of Easter is not Jesus defeating death, but instead thinks Easter is about listening to women preach resurrection, switching the sword for the cross, rejecting the ways of empire and rising up for the oppressed, and paradise for the humble and power for the marginalized. The guy also thinks prayer is somehow a scam.
Christians who jump on the prayer bashing bandwagon immediately forfeit their credibility. Christians who bash prayer after shootings aren't Christians.
