In this skit, packed with humor and depth, The Skit Guys dig into what the Serenity Prayer is all about. As one man prays the prayer, God challenges him to understand what the words actually mean, and to actually mean the words he says.

Talking Monkey

A man bought a talking monkey from the pet shop. That night he took the monkey to a local bar and bet everyone $10 that his monkey could talk. But the monkey never spoke a word.
When he got home, the monkey chattered up a storm. So the next day, the man took the monkey back to the bar and bet everyone $20 that he could talk. Again, the monkey was silent, costing the man hundreds of dollars in lost bets.
When he got home that night, the man was furious. “I’m taking you back to the pet store!” he told the monkey.
“Chill out!” replied the monkey. “Take me back to the bar tomorrow. Just think of the odds we’ll get!”
Here’s the lesson: Yesterday’s loss is no guarantee of tomorrow’s outcome.
Recovery Step: “There is no fear in love” (1 John 4:18). Turn the page on yesterday’s losses. Tomorrow is a new day.

Father O’Malley answered the phone.
“Hello, is this Father O’Malley?”
“It is.”
“This is the IRS. Can you help us?”
“I can.”
“Do you know a Ted Houlihan?”
“I do.”
“Is he a member of your church?”
“He is.”
“Did he donate $10,000 to the church?”
“He will.”
It would appear that Ted Houlihan attempted to stick it to the IRS, claiming to have made a charitable contribution he had not actually made. I hear that all the time: “I’m done with my addiction.” “I have no more temptation.” “The battle is over.”
The Bible warns us, “When words are many, transgression is not lacking” (Proverbs 10:19).
Recovery Step: Be the person you want others to think you are.
