  • Jeff Allen combines clean and hilarious humor with inspiration.
    He’s performed for American troops, twice at the National Prayer Breakfast, starred in specials on Comedy Central, and been featured on Bill Gaither’s Homecoming Tours.
    And although “Jeff is a class act and true gentleman,” (according to the CEO of BlueCreek Investment Partners), he’s going to be with us this Thursday, December 15. If you know anyone who is a class act and a true gentleman - unlike the rest of us -- invite them to join us.

    I love your testimony talks. So powerful. Thank you for sharing Jesus and your comedy. You have given me insight into my youngest and some of his struggles. So helpful!! I'm in recovery on the Al-Anon side. God has this I know. Praying for you and your family, so you can keep doing what you do.

    Thank you for the way you share. You are authentic, raw and real. I think it's effective, but I am also in recovery (Al-Anon) and former addiction counselor. My kid's media addiction (gaming, internet addiction, porn) brought me to program 8 yrs ago. My oldest is in recovery, my youngest still struggles and is playing with alcohol now. I think you have a great message for younger people, also because you are so funny!!! My husband and I saw you in Royal Oak, Michigan this last yr. I watch your stuff on CZcams all the time. I pray for you and your family. God is still working through you. Keep up the good work!!!

    WOW, this is really a different side of Jeff that I haven’t seen before! He speaks a very compelling story that was difficult for him to express. His hands were his “tell” because they were all over his face and head when he went off the comedy and started deeply discussing his flaws! You can see the hurt that he was reliving! Great inspirational speaker! God bless you Jeff!

    So true, without Jesus life has no meaning. I found this just before my 21st birthday. How God can arrange things! I was in the Australian Navy. A less godless crew it would be hard to find. Yet my boss was a Christian. He led me to Jesus - over 50 years ago now. Life can be difficult at times. But God's grace is always sufficient.

      I am a life long believer but sadly not the best representative. The amazing grace I have had through all my turmoil(and there has been plenty). I find myself looking above to the Grand Weaver. All I can say is we aren't perfect but we are always loved and graciously forgiven. I never forgot where my faith lay but I have carved many a stray path but the Father, the Son and the Gracious Spirit held me up always. I have dissected our faith and many mysteries allude me but there are the basic truth's my simple mind can grasp and I let those more qualified to master the bigger hurdles. C.S. Lewis said it best, "if you don't understand a portion perhaps it's not time for you to grasp that high so continue the path of what you do know and don't worry about what you don't.
      Blessings to each of us. We are all miracle's!

    Life's a beach and then you meet Jesus. AMEN. I was a "WHY?" woman myself. "What's the point?" Bad, really bad marriage. You know who excused me from that horrible, miserable, violent man? God, the Father. No lie. He showed me what I was living with, all of it. Sick, depraved, makes me sick to think about it. Thank you, I love God so so much for saving me. I hope I make it home to Jesus because during those lovely married years I wasn't such a good person myself. I know what you're saying, Jeff. And you're right, that Bible us the best book ever written. Happy New Year to you and yours. God bless you all.
