Are you looking for an affordable, yet effective way to reach your community? One that will be an encouragement to your members, as well as a meaningful way to share God's love with your local community? Here are 7 ways a Christian comedian can help your church provide both encouragement and outreach within your community:



1.Comedy benefits every one, not just Christians

If there is one entertainment choice that everyone enjoys, it is the genre of comedy. Everyone likes to laugh whether they are a professing Christian or seeker of the faith. Comedy touches all demographics.

2.Comedy is inexpensive and easy to do

Unlike the cost of bringing in a musician or other groups of entertainers, a comedian is simple and painless. There are little technical requirements, and the travel costs for only one person rather than a group. In addition, there are comedians for all types of budgets and programs.

3.Comedy can be tailored to your event

Regardless of your event, comedy is a great choice and fit. Whether your event is aimed at fundraising, outreach, or an informal church service, Christian comedy is a great way to reach the goals of your event.

4.Comedy is fun

How many times have your heard it said or came across the perception that Christianity is about a lot of strict rules and not a lot of fun? A Christian comedy event shatters this myth. Your audience will leave your event in a good mood and with the changed perception that Christians do have a lot of fun.

5. Comedy communicates

Comedy is a non-threatening, yet meaningful way to communicate God's love to a world in need. Comedy provides an authentic visual communication of God's grace and forgiveness in a friendly environment to those that would not have been open before.

6. Comedy shows that your church is relative to today's culture

A good comedian makes a church appear hip and living in the current world. And a comedian whose savior is Jesus Christ is living proof that a contemporary outlook, and a sense of humor about the Christian lifestyle are important and vital in today's culture.

7.Comedy reaches a wider audience than other genres of entertainment

Other Christian entertainment genres only draw a certain audience, whereas comedy welcomes everyone. Parenting workshops target parents, childrens events target families. Comedy events target families, single adults, youth, and more mature audiences.
