You forgot to mention the worship leader mouth smack noises in the mic. I am guilty of this and people will bust me for it.

Another frequent one is the worship leader who uses the word “just” way too much in prayer. “Lord, we just want you to just land on us with your glory. And we just want to worship you today, just for who you are. Just do it Lord, just make your glory tangible today in our midst, just give us your presence. It’s just what we need today Lord.”

I like the “Mmm, mm, mmmmmm” tick…me and my friends call it tasty Jesus:
“mmmm…yes, Lord…mmmmmmmm, Jesus…”

Humor was a great way to make the point, and it also raises a question I’ve often wondered about: in what circumstances, if any, is the use of humor appropriate in a worship service? If you have any thoughts on this question, I’d enjoy hearing them. Peace, Mike
