Why Churches Book Jody

Church Clean. Comedy Club Funny.

Church events ask for two things at once: comedy that earns real laughs and a set that never makes anyone in the room uncomfortable. Jody has performed for hundreds of them.

Men’s ministry events, deacon banquets, ladies’ nights, Valentine’s and Christmas banquets, volunteer appreciation dinners, couples’ nights, church anniversaries, fundraisers, association events, senior adult events and outreach nights — Long Hollow Baptist Church, Hunter Street Baptist Church, Covenant Baptist, Central UMC Meridian, Baptist associations, a 200th church anniversary and Christmas parties from Oklahoma to New York. The faith-based calendar is a large share of Jody’s year. He is not a comedian who cleaned up an act for church. The act has always been clean — no profanity, no innuendo — and it is still professional stand-up built to get real laughs. The story of a stuttering kid from Opelika who came home from three tours in Iraq is a testimony he tells without preaching at anyone.

  • 100% clean, no innuendo, no edgy “church-clean” loopholes
  • Plays equally well to a multigenerational room — grandparents, parents and grown kids laughing at the same jokes
  • Comfortable with a devotional close, a testimony segment, or straight comedy — your call
  • Works in a fellowship hall, a sanctuary, a hotel ballroom or a gym
  • Great fit for fundraisers: keeps the room warm before the ask
  • Featured on Charisma Media and Dry Bar Comedy

What the Room Gets

Formats for the Church Calendar

Tell Jody the occasion and the tone — comedy night, banquet keynote or conference session — and he builds it with your pastor or event chair.

Comedy Night

The Clean Comedy Show

Forty-five minutes of laughter your congregation can bring the neighbors to.

Church comedy nights, Christmas banquets, Valentine dinners and volunteer appreciation. Small-town Alabama, Army life, stuttering through the drive-thru and the joys of a big family — with your church’s people worked in.

Men’s & Women’s Events

Laughing Through Life

Adversity doesn’t get the last word.

Men’s conferences, women’s retreats and ministry banquets. A soldier and lifelong stutterer on resilience, gratitude and perspective — heartfelt, hilarious and encouraging, with an optional testimony close.

Leadership

Listen, Learn, Lead

Ministry is connection before it is communication.

Church staff retreats, deacon and elder training, and denominational leadership gatherings. Practical communication and leadership principles from the Maxwell method and 24 years of Army leadership, delivered with humor.

What Pastors and Event Chairs Ask

How clean is clean?

No profanity, no innuendo, no crude humor, no politics. Jody’s material is the same on a church stage as it is on Dry Bar Comedy. Watch the Church Banquet clip or the full Dry Bar special on the Videos page — that is exactly what your congregation will get.

Will he share his testimony or keep it to comedy?

Your choice. Many churches book a comedy set and ask Jody to close with ten minutes on faith, family and coming home from Iraq. Others want the full Laughing Through Life keynote. He respects the tone your pastor sets and never turns a comedy night into a sermon uninvited.

Can he work with a small church budget or a fundraiser?

Jody works with churches of every size and often builds fundraiser dates around travel he already has scheduled. Send the date and city; if there is a way to make it work, he will tell you within one business day.

What does he need on site?

A wireless microphone and a place to stand. Fellowship halls, sanctuaries, gyms and hotel ballrooms all work. No screens or slides are needed.
