Things Your Lutheran Pastor Loves

Sarcasm can be over used and still be undercutting in love.  Some people are sarcastic because they are joyless and lazy.  Others are sarcastic because it seems to be trendy these days.  But cleverness should never be fooled as Christlikeness.  However some sarcasm can have a witty element of truth.  One is hard pressed to convince me that Elijah wasn’t sarcastic with the prophets of Baal, or Jesus wasn’t witty many times with the self-righteous.  Meet a sarcastic series of videos that at least in my opinion nails it so that it actually edifies which is a pretty gifted feat.  I am convinced these videos have to be done by a pastor because they are true to life.  I have watched many, and I have about five that are my favorite.  But this one is so far my all time favorite.  I don’t know how many times to a lesser degree I have experienced this nonsensical, anti-gospel behavior from some people.  Thank God for this kind of sarcasm.  If we only when we finish laughing, we learn from it.
