Nate Bargatze Hilariously Reflects on His Religious Upbringing

Nate Bargatze hilariously reflects on his religious upbringing. The popular comedian mentions what he wasn’t allowed to do and why he probably didn’t get a lot of invites to sleepovers as a child. Watch the short but hysterical clip to hear Nate talk about his childhood.

When someone is or becomes a follower of Jesus Christ, they tend to act and live a certain way. Because of their conduct and how they carry themselves, they often stand out from the crowd. That’s precisely what Jesus was talking about when He said in Matthew, “By their fruits you will know them.”

Christians are supposed to be different from everyone else. We are called to emulate Christ, even though we will continually fail to live up to that standard. It is often because of what we do and how we act that will make an impression and win people over for Christ, not by what we say.

In a clip posted on YouTube, Nate shares how his Christian upbringing caused him to act differently, sometimes in ways that probably didn’t win him many friends as a child.

“My parents, they also became Christian when I was born, and everybody’s still Christian,” he said. “But I got them when they were the most Christian. I think Jesus had more fun than I did.”

Later in the clip, Nate mentions how his television viewing options were severely limited growing up. He hilariously admits that when he happened to catch an episode of “The Simpsons,” he thought it was an R-rated movie being shown on TV.

He also mentions a time when he called his parents because some people planned to watch a horror film at a sleepover.

“I was having this sleepover one night; at the end of the night, we’re going to watch “Friday the 13th,” he said. “So, I stand up in front of them alone, and I say, ‘I don’t think I’m allowed to watch this.’ I expected others to join me. No one joined.”

He then said that he had called his parents about the situation, and they were coming to the sleepover.

Job 8:21 “The time will come when your mouth will be full of laughing, and cries of joy will come from your lips.”
