Intelligent Humor!

A man is sitting, reading a paper, while a woman holds her hands out and looks up.

Funny Christian Skits are dramatic sermon illustrations that capture humorous situations.

These drama scripts are packed with witty twists and intelligent humor that use classic comic techniques such as: surprise, exaggeration, incongruity, repetition, misunderstanding, comedy of errors, comedy of manners, physical comedy, irony, and satire. The most refreshing characteristic of these comic skits is that they do not poke fun at the Church or make believers out to be ridiculous; instead, they portray humorous situations that provide opportunities for us to evaluate our lives as we progress toward Christ-likeness.

Many of the InkSpirations scripts, from other categories, fall into the category of Funny Christian Skits. Those scripts are listed on this page.
