church is funny? July 30, 2008

I was reading this post over at Eric’s Eddyfications this morning and it got me thinking…

Why should we use humor in the Church? Here are my top 5 reasons:

1. It pleases God when we laugh.
2. Laughter is good for us.
3. Humor can soften hearts.
4. Laughter can build community.
5. Humor is attractive.

When I get some more time, I’ll flesh these out. And maybe someday I can put them on a t-shirt or a refridgerator magnet. In the meantime…do you have any to add?
