Comedy/Spoken » Spoken Comedy » Christian Comedy

Christian comedy is generally based on Biblical observations and religious themes, though obviously with a tone that's more light-hearted than evangelical. Instead of using the irreverence or tension buildup/release tactics of comedy's edgier mainstream, Christian comedy styles itself as a safe, gentle alternative for a very specific market. Christian comedy relies primarily on whimsical yet respectful takes on familiar subject matter (and, often, a heavy dose of puns).
