Ed, your unwavering commitment to "keep it real" and "keep it Jesus" has always inspired me. You should have caught him off guard and done the "Welcome to the Jungle" impersonation you do. Now THAT would have been funny!
Well done, Pastor and THANK YOU!

Ed you never fail to make me chuckle. You are an inspiration to all who want to make a difference in this world. I really admire how you take on all the challenging topics. Keep on keepin real, our church is the real deal!

That's freakin' awesome! You're the man!

That was awesome Ed!! I don't think that I have ever seen you laugh so hard ... My husband & I were laughing right along with you. Great job!

Well done Ed. I imagine it is so hard to go on a show like that and not look like what folks stereotype "preachers" looking like and at the same time not looking like a guy trying to be cool. You did well.

I watch the Colbert Report everyday, and I think you were by far the best guest they have ever had. Nice Job!!

Love the message, gotta say Ed you looked a little embarrassed when talking about the sexperiment. It is hard not to laugh at Colbert. I think it is awesome the challenge can get out in the main stream media. You were conservative with the 'hole nutha level.

Great job man, that was hilarious and you represented the Church well. I love America seeing that Pastors also have a great sense of humor.
Praise God for that man.

i gotta say. i'm an avid follower of the colbert report and you did such a great job. a visiting church planter and a few other pastors on staff were all hanging out when we saw this and we all loved it! thanks for bridging the gap

LOL. Ed, you look like you couldn't contain your laughter... funny.

Great job Ed, that's one of the best representations of Christianity I've seen a Pastor make on television; very positive, truthful, and applicable.

I love the Colbert Report. He is freaking hilarious. I think that it is awesome for you to be on this show and talking about this subject. I think it is also good for people to see a Pastor and Christ Follower having a good time. You are one of my heros Pastor Ed.

Saw you and you were great! For once, someone who's religious who recognizes sex IS a part of the plan and the experience.
Good for you!

I was laughing so hard at you laughing so hard...good show. You held your ground and got across the main point despite the jokes.

Ed Young and Stephen Colbert together. That's like peanut butter & jelly. Two of my favorite things.
Thanks Ed for being different. You continually amaze me by how far you're willing to go to spread the gospel in new and amazing ways. You're a great inspiration to myself and my pastor.

How wonderful that you could approach this with humor and grace, when the purpose of the show is to really make fun of things/people/situations.
What an awesome opportunity! Thank you for posting this.
