Wild Church Moments: Unhinged Religious Experiences
TikTok user abby_karasek asked users to share "the most unhinged thing you've seen at church. Not "someone holding hands" or "a kid making a scene," I mean like something ACTUALLY INSANE."
And their submissions are truly something. Here are some of their stories:
"My brother's phone went off during the sermon, and his ringtone was 'Highway to Hell.'" —sarahtonin059
"On Mother's Day, the preacher made the comment, 'Everyone talks about men as the head of the family, but she made that baby, you did your job in 30 seconds.'" —Kalyx🌲☀️
"The organ had to be taken apart piece by piece and removed because a murderer hid evidence in it." —Erika
"My pastor forgot to turn her mic off, went to the bathroom, and was having major, noisy diarrhea." —Happy4U
"This girl was outside the church saying things, and an older lady came into the church saying she was doing satanic chants outside the church. They investigated, and she was just praying in Romanian." —*~Lexi~*
"I was at a church camp one time and this girl was healed from her wheelchair and started walking!" —jay
"Someone brought a baby goat one time. It was really cute :)." —Emma Grace Music
"I saw a demon cast out. I didn't see the actual demon but I will never forget it's sound." —Meg
"During prayer, I opened my eyes and saw the pastor and one congregant blowing kisses to each other. And they noticed me." —pure
"I went to a baptism when I was younger, and sitting in front of me was a bald man with a full-color tattoo of Elmo flipping me off. Right on the back of his head. I think about that often." —lukearchuleta_
"Growing up Pentecostal, this woman was dancing in the spirit, and she suddenly fell through the floor. Turns out there was a large air vent and it gave way." —KAI 🌊
"The guy sitting next to me took off his Crocs and started rubbing his freaking toes with hand sanitizer." —~{•}^_[Char]_^{•}~
"Also, a guy came in and pooped his pants during the service and everyone could smell it. He just stayed sitting there. For the next few weeks he kept coming back and pooping on the seats." —Lindsey Thomas
"In my Orthodox church, if the holy communion falls on the floor, it's a huge deal. A kid [accidentally] dropped it and the priest got down on hands and knees and licked up the communion from the floor!!!" —🎱🐆Paloma🍒⭐️
"When I was in my teens, I was a part of a mega-church, and I normally would sit with my parents, but I decided to sit with my friends on the other side of the tabernacle. Midway through the service, I felt someone behind me, and there was a group of gang members spread out all around, and three were directly behind me. They were wearing all red and had white and gold masks on. They had guns and knives. My pastor continued to preach as if nothing was happening so as not to cause a panic. I remember I was sweating and on the verge of having a panic attack because I wasn't near my family, and I thought I was going to get unalived by the man behind me and next to me."
"Packed Christmas Eve mass, a lady leaned too far into the candles and went up like a Christmas tree. Luckily, for heavy coats, she wasn't harmed." —rachellegibson_indieauthor
Lastly, "On X-mas, our priest said in the happiest tone ever, 'LOOK WHAT I GOT GUYS!!!' And he rode down the aisle with an electric scooter." —Rowan
