Why Laughter Belongs in a Life of Faith

In this episode of Water into Wine, Father Charleston Wilson explores the gift of laughter and what it reveals about joy, humility, and the Christian life. Over a glass of Pol Roger champagne, he reflects on why laughter can be more than a reaction. It can be an act of hope, a spiritual exhale, and a reminder that God’s grace is often found in ordinary human moments. From Saint Teresa of Ávila and Saint Philip Neri to Winston Churchill, Chick-fil-A nugget math, and The Andy Griffith Show, the conversation blends humor, faith, and practical wisdom. Along the way, Father Charleston reminds listeners that holiness does not have to be sour-faced, joy can resist despair, and sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is laugh at ourselves.
