Check out this video.  A little truth brought to you by satire.

Found at Jesus Needs New PR.

As religious people love to say, “today I was blessed” with one of the funniest videos I’ve seen in a long time.  The sad part is that not only am I fairly religious I am also interested in several of the “standard nerdy” activities mentioned in the video.  It is amazing I found a wife.

My hope as a pastor is that the church could stop creating “Religious People” and start encouraging people to live in the Kingdom of God.  Kingdom People may still be obsessed but with less killing, judgment, ugliness, Bible-thumping, etc.  If you want to be a Kingdom Person you should come check out our new community.  Find us online at www.churchanew.net or visit one of our worship services weekly Sunday nights at 5:30pm starting September 11th.
