Can you share some funny sermon illustrations stories?

One of the best funny sermon illustrations is about a shepherd who lost one of his sheep. He searched everywhere for it. When he finally found it, he was so overjoyed that he carried it all the way back home on his shoulders. This can be used to illustrate how God rejoices when one of His lost 'sheep' (people) are found. It's a story that can tug at the heartstrings while also being a bit funny in the image of the shepherd with the sheep on his shoulders.

One story could be about the little drummer boy. He had no great gift to bring to the baby Jesus like the rich men. But with his simple drum, he played his heart out. This illustrates that it's not about the grandeur of the gift but the sincerity of the offering. It shows that even the simplest of us can give something of great value in the spirit of Christmas.

Sure. One funny sermon story is about a pastor who was trying to illustrate the concept of forgiveness. He used the example of a dog that had chewed up his favorite shoes. Instead of getting angry, he forgave the dog. And the dog then brought him a bone as if it knew it was forgiven.

Sure. One funny sermon story is about a pastor who was preaching about kindness. Mid - sermon, a dog wandered into the church and started chasing its tail right in front of the altar. The pastor just laughed and said, 'Well, there's an example of pure, unadulterated joy right there, which is a form of kindness to oneself.'

One funny Easter sermon story is about a pastor who was trying to explain the concept of resurrection. He brought a little chick into the church. The chick was supposed to represent new life. But during the sermon, the chick got loose and started running all over the pews. Everyone was laughing as the pastor chased it around, but it also made the point in a very memorable way about how new life can be unexpected and full of energy.

One funny story is about a pastor who got the groom's name wrong during the sermon. He called him by the name of the groom's old high school rival. Everyone had a good laugh when the groom corrected him, and the pastor joked that he was just testing if the groom was paying attention.

Sure. One story is about a pastor who was preaching about Noah's Ark. He said, 'Now, Noah had to gather two of every kind of animal. Just think of how hard it was to round up two skunks!' The congregation burst into laughter.

Sure. One funny story is about Noah's Ark. Imagine all those animals lining up two by two, and Noah trying to keep them all in order.
