A person attending an event where I teach the Bible will get practical biblical teaching straight from scripture in language she can easily understand.

Sometimes she will think, "Wow! I never noticed that before...that is so cool!"
Other times she will think, "I always wondered what that meant!"

She will feel like she better understands God and His Word.
She will laugh.
She will be captivated through personal stories.
She will be in awe of God.
She will understand how to apply scripture to her own life without taking it out of context.

Best of all, she will leave the event eager to read her Bible on her own in order to know Jesus more deeply!

People who attend an event where I do stand-up comedy will laugh at clean jokes they can relate to. They will get a break from the stressful side of life while being thoroughly entertained. My humor helps people emotionally reset. After we laugh awhile, attendees will find themselves in a better frame of mind to face the hard things in life, encouraged to keep pursuing Jesus.

I am a Christian communicator who motivates people to passionately pursue Jesus for their good and His glory! I help people realize their personal need for the Bible, inspiring and empowering them to study it themselves, and equipping them to become skilled disciple-makers.

One way I do this is by speaking at events, retreats, and conferences

I also tell a lot of jokes. I'm a clean stand-up comedian who believes humor helps people emotionally reset. After we laugh awhile, we find ourselves in a better frame of mind to face the hard things in life, encouraged to keep pursuing Jesus.
