I'm retiring from standup. I've got a few gigs to finish up but overall I'm retiring. Can't believe it myself. I've put so much effort into my standup comedy in the last few years and just as more doors seem to be opening ...oh well. This is really difficult to write. But I find that God has other plans and it's His plans that come first.
God knows my limited attention span (can't even spell A.D.D... hey wait I did it!) and He's leading me away from performing and more into discipleship, denominational youth leadership and being involved with 24-7 prayer rooms.
I will still do speaking with a good dose of comedy included. So, if you're looking for a speaker with a combination of spiritual and funny, email me! That ties in more with the direction God is leading.
If you're looking for high quality Christian comedy let me direct you to some of my funny friends. All great guys and men of faith who can deliver what you need for an event:
