A comedian, Christy Conder, who also serves in her church’s children’s ministry, has had some hysterical experiences with children while trying to teach them about God and His word. 

If you want to know the truth about something, ask a child. Children are extremely honest and willing to say and do things that most adults would not. The filter between their thoughts and the words that come out of their mouth does not function at 100 percent yet. Children also have a unique way of looking at things, and given their inquisitive minds, children will ask some honest and sometimes uncomfortable questions. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, Christy recalls some of these hilarious interactions with children. One specific instance involves a question she received about the story of David and Bathsheba in the Old Testament.

“I love teaching kids about God because they also have some great observations,” she said. “Like, I got this one time, ‘Hey, Ms. Christy, if David had seen Bathsheba in the show, would she have been Showersheba?’”

Another hilarious but innocent and honest question Christy got was from two little girls about the parting of the Red Sea.

“And then I had two little girls come up to me one time and go, ‘Ms. Christy, you remember when Moses crossed over the Red Sea? Yes. Do you remember when Pharaoh came in after them? Yeah. And you remember the water all came down on Pharaoh, and they all died? Yeah. Does that mean the horses died, too?’”

She also added that some games played in children’s church are changed slightly to give them more of a Bible and church feel and sound. 

As Christy hilarious points out, and as any parent knows, children have a knack for looking at issues and situations and making unique, often hilarious observations.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old he will not be turned away from it.”
