“You’ll be hearing from my friends. All the attorneys in the entire world.” — Satan
Classic.
This is absolutely classic. Thanks for making me laugh.
LOL…great job
That was great! I had an uneasiness about using Turbo Tax. Now I know why.
I loved this segment! I am on staff as the Producer at a large church here in the Northwest - I showed it to our Worship Arts Director and he was unsure about it. He said he felt as though it portrayed Satan as too friendly and lacking in power. He said he wasn’t sure how that would play in this area.
I loved the portrayal, and felt that Satan is actually a lot more dangerous when we see him as “likable”. The Bible talks about how he will disguise himself as an “angel of light” -
I would be interested to know how this went over in the different area’s of the country.
Thanks!
haha funny stuff
Sharyl,
Great question…I’ve only heard positive (humorous) responses from people around the world…I’m sure there will be some that don’t like it though. Maybe some other non-”bible belt” and non-US folks could comment. We certainly won’t take offense if you don’t like it.
That video was freakin’ funny; it’s nice to be able to pull Satan out for an interview every once and awhile.
Way not to over use the Satan interview idea. Very funny and it took me by surprised when you used in the service.
FYI, Turbo Tax caused me to get my Tax refund back late last year due to an error in my return so I agree with Satan. . .
Oh snap!
Too funny … I’ve been sick for like a week, and haven’t laughed much .. made me feel just a little better. So true as well…
what a fantastic way to start my morning. awesome stuff guys. mike.
[...] This was very funny to me, as I have been having a lot of discussions concerning finances the last few weeks with a few different people and my Pastor Steve talked this past Sunday about Funding the Vision. Thanks to Craig Groeschel and LifeChurch.tv. [...]
Funny! Especially as the wife and I get ready to plunge into a Dave Ramsey course.
The folks loved it in Wellington Florida where we have 92% of the community does not attend church at all. It also added for some further discussion in our LifeGroups during the week.
Great, simply great! Does Satan have an agent? Would he like to do a guest appearance at my church? Sorry, had to ask.
Regarding this and all the videos from “Satan’s Sex Ed”:
Would we laugh as much if it were the same kind of skit, but instead of Satan, we used Hitler, Saddam Hussein, or maybe even the 9/11 hijackers?
Just a thought…
cool video. Gets right to the point.
Mike,
I’m sure there are a lot of things we could have done with the video to make it less funny.
In the real world, it would be great if Satan presented himself in an obviously evil form or manner. I supposed if he did so, it would pretty hard for him to deceive.
