ponderingGod - When Humor isn't Funny

In this episode, Pastor Craig explores the viral Coldplay Kiss Cam moment involving Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and HR chief Kristin Cabot, asking the question: When is humor not funny? Through Scripture, quotes from Martin Luther and C.S. Lewis, and reflections from Rev. Ben Griffin, we’re reminded that Christian humor must be rooted in mercy, not mockery. Jude 20–23 and John 8:1–11 call us to rescue—not ridicule—and to show compassion in a world that often laughs at what should break our hearts. Jesus never ignored sin, but He never lost sight of the person. Let’s follow His lead.
