Comedian John Crist’s Church Announcement Has Everyone Laughing

Comedian John Crist’s hilarious church announcement has everyone laughing. The popular funnyman provided some brief updates about his church’s latest building project. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear John’s fake and laugh-out-loud funny announcement about the latest massive church to open its doors.

It's not a difficult task to find a church in the United States of America. No matter your denomination or preferred style of worship, odds are you can find a church to your liking without putting forth much effort. Some of them are massive, dotting different regions throughout the country. Thanks to the power of television, we are all familiar with those enormous houses of worship where hundreds, and even thousands, gather to praise and thank the Lord.

However, at what point is a church too big? Is it really necessary for a church to be the size of a football stadium? Additionally, with churches of that size, one might start to wonder if the church’s message and purpose have been diluted and watered down to maintain such large crowds. Are those pastors simply telling people what they want to hear instead of the actual word of God?

In a clip posted on YouTube, John, while standing in front of the Las Vegas Sphere, gives a hysterical update about his church’s latest building project. He mentions that the church raised an insane amount of money to “bring the Gospel to the lost.”

However, despite the enormous amount of money raised to reach the lost for Christ, John mentions that two important church outreach ministries, ministries that actually do reach out to the lost and the hurting, had to be cut following the opening of this vast house of worship.

“Couple house cleaning things real quick,” John said. “We are going to have to close the soup kitchen. We just didn’t have the manpower to keep that going; all our focus is kind of into the Sunday morning experience. And the homeless shelter that we used to have. We just didn't have the room for it anymore.”

Of course, with John’s announcement, he is mocking those churches and pastors who are more concerned with appearances than actually being the hands and feet of Jesus Christ.

Matthew 25:40 “And the King will make answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, because you did it to the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.”
