Jesus does Stand-Up: Laughter & Grace

JESUS DOES STAND UP is a joyous look at a serious subject. The conversations of Jesus have proved life-changing for countless millions of readers. The words that Jesus said still have the power to radicalise the religious, pinprick the pompous and scandalise the over-serious. "Never has a man spoken the way this man speaks," (John 7:46). Ken has spent many years examining, discussing and enjoying the words of Jesus. He has worked as lecturer, pastor and teacher –and even as a stand-up comedian- in all kinds of different environments. But there is one constant: in every situation, once the words of Jesus have been allowed to stand in their naked power, untrammelled by any denominational agenda or philosophical baggage…once they speak fresh, then they accomplish change. As Charles Wesley put it, so beautifully, “He speaks, and listening to his voice, new life the dead receive.”
