..."Holy Spirit laughter," "Slain in the Spirit," "worship lap running," "pew jumping," and various other Finney excitements.

I love to laugh as much as the next guy, and I appreciate it when the pastor interjects some humor every now and then, but when I saw a video clip of a "holy laughter" service it kinda creeped me out! Can't say I've ever heard of "worship lap running." Is that like "worship lap dancing"? ;-) (Of course there are probably some churches that aren't too far from that. All in the name of appealing to the "unchurched," you know.)

***Can't say I've ever heard of "worship lap running."***

It is where you just start running laps around the sancturary while singing whatever. Variations on this theme are doing this with flags and/ or a congo line.

The first Sunday I saw this, I thought to myself "if I could pick up 2 checkered flags from the local NASCAR store then I could announce a winner the next time I saw it." Then, I thought that nobody would appreciate my humor. After all, this is serious HS stuff.
