The world needs more positivity and laughter, and so we're grateful for these gifted comedians who can brighten even the darkest day!

When asked how he became interested in comedy, John jokes about his childhood saying, “Shoot, I grew up in the south. My dad is a pastor, and I was the third of eight homeschooled children. Coming from a background like that, how do you NOT write jokes?!”

But as for how he got his big break?

“I started off as the announcement guy at my church after college. Of course, it became more about telling jokes than communicating actual information. Most of the time the pastor had to come out and apologize for me,” John laughs.

One day, Michael was in a theater watching a movie when the projector broke and the film snapped. The crowd was getting restless waiting on the film to restart, and friends dared Michael to get on stage and entertain the audience. When theater management came and asked him to step down, the crowd actually demanded that Michael stay and finish his routine!

Christian Comedians: Bob Smiley

Bob Smiley entered his first stand-up comedy contest when he was in college. He nervously took the stage and then learned that there was only one other contestant--who took the stage without an act!
