We’ve got to give it to Jesus and the church - they do a great job inspiring some of the web’d most entertaining musical videos out there. That’s why we decided to pay tribute to Christian music lovers everywhere with this list of the 7 Funniest Religious Musical Performance Videos. Enjoy and god bless you…

7. Jesus Is My Friend
Any true fan of Jesus will tell you that his message is best delivered with a pop reggae beat and synthesizers.

6. It’s Not OK To Be Gay
Nothing like mixing in a little homophobia with your love of religious blues music. Our favorite lyric from this little ditty has to be when the guy references that he can tell us “from personal experience that homosexuality is an unhappy, unholy, unnatural, unsatisfying lifestyle.” From personal experience? Uhh..that’s TMI, homophobic mountain man, TMI.

5. Let The Bodies Hit The Floor
This one’s already a web classic and it makes us have a new respect for evangelists who can push people on the ground and hardcore metal bands whose music somehow fits perfectly with their “religion.”

4. Subtitled Church Song
We never really are quite sure what’s going on when most churches break into song, so it’s very helpful to have these subtitles to understand what people are really singing about. Who knew that Richard Gere played such a role in church hymns?

3. Amazing Grace
Our only solo performance in the countdown is more than deserved by this guy for his truly memorable butchering of the classic song “Amazing Grace.”

2. Gospel Hardcore Dancing
If you thought Let The Bodies Hit The Floor was the only hardcore metal song that works well with Jesus, than you’re in for a surprise when you check out what these Gospel dancers can do with a little rock n’ roll spirit.

1. The Renewed Mind Is The Key
Our #1 pick for the Funniest Religious Musical Performance comes to us from a group called The Way and features just the right mix of hip hop and R&B flavor, awkward white people singing in church, and popping and locking.
