Youth
Laugh your way into Youth's souls...
I love to speak to youth because I believe that they are our salt that will preserve our Nation from the Bacteria called immorality. The more I fall in love with this Country, and the more I think about what kind of world my kids will be living in in the next 20-30 years, the more I desire to impart truth to Youth. I enjoy doing the whole conference with Comedy the first night, and Comedy and truth the next 3 or 4 sessions, or sometimes only for one night.
"I have never seen any speaker who can hold the attention of 1000 students for that long, and make them laugh that hard."

"Nazareth understands today's youth and understands the impact and effectiveness of humor in communicating with young people. More importantly, Nazareth understands the need and urgency to share the truth of the gospel with teenagers. He presents this truth in a unique, funny, and exciting way."
Nancy Beeman
Principal, Santa Fe Christian Upper Schools
"WOW!!! AWESOME!!! FANTASTIC!!! AMAZINGLY FUNNY!!! HILARIOUS!!!
Not only was he funny and sidesplitting, he knew exactly when to get serious and to the point about having a true, in-depth, onfire walk with God. Then, he mixed all of that with humor and it shot everyone right in the heart of where we live. He definitely deserved the standing ovation that he received and much more…."

"What a fantastic gift you have. Thank you for sharing it with the youth and adults!"

"We thank God for your ministry, in our evening service last Sunday. It was good to laugh together as you opened our eyes to more of the abundant joy of life available. Our members kept right on joking and enjoying life even after you were gone"
Pastor John Carstensen
First Baptist Church of Lynwood, California
"On behalf of the Santa Ana Jail, I would like to thank you for your outstanding show. Our juveniles enjoyed your performance. It was really gracious and generous of you to volunteer your time to assist our jail. After you finished your act and left the housing module, many of the juveniles thanked our staff for providing them with such a unique form of entertainment. You are the first comedian to volunteer their services at our jail. We especially liked the way you were able to blend your comedy routine with your spiritual message.
Your comedy routine provided us with an alternative method of providing our inmates with a worthwhile incentive. Your routine also helped the jail administration diminish some of the aggression and frustration that had developed in our juvenile module. Keep up your "Comedy Crusade."
Fernando Espinoza
Detention Supervisor, Santa Ana Jail
"WOW! You did a super job! You are a riot!"

"Nazareth performed for our Junior and Senior high students and they loved him! He captivated our students with his humor and then related God's truth to life issues that youth face daily.
Nazareth also shared stories from his own life experiences, which enabled us to relate to him on a more personal level. He made a lasting impression on our youth and really made them think about what it means to be a follower of Jesus Christ"
Dwayne Smithgall
Youth Pastor,
IMPACT CMA Youth Group, Ellensburg, Washington
"In the midst of much prayer on preparing an evangelistic outreach, I was reminded of our summer youth camps at which Nazareth guest spoke. Reflecting back, I thought about how powerfully God had used him at the camps. I contacted Nazareth and to my pleasant surprise, he said he would love to do it.
Our sanctuary was busting at the seams as 245 youth piled in, the hand of God's Spirit moving throughout the night was obvious to all. Nazareth did an amazing job captivating the kids' attention by using his God-given gift of comedy. He has a way of getting kids laughing which causes them to lower their guard. Then he zings the kids with the word of God and applies it in a way that penetrates hearts.
After an uproariously funny routine, Nazareth closed with a clear presentation of the gospel. He laid it out there where the kids could understand it. We were blessed as we watched fifty young adults come to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ!
Truly, God used Nazareth to reap a great harvest that night. Not only is he a gifted comedian, his heart for God makes him a valuable asset to the youth ministry. I would highly recommend Nazareth and his comedy skills to anyone who desires to see God change the hearts of young people."
Mike Milam
Youth Pastor - North Valley Calvary Chapel
"God's hand is obviously on you and your ministry. Your comedy demonstrated unbounded energy and love for the Word of God! Your ability to integrate His word with sensitive and sensible practicality glorifies the Father in the highest."
Ron Kewkirk
Administrator - Venture Christian High School
"I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for being so upfront about abstinence and abstention from drugs and alcohol. I couldn't in my wildest imagination project how you were going to be able to include all of those strong standards into a comedy routine and still keep folks attention and interest -- but you did it and you did it well."
Anita Pittman
Operation Director, Thousand Pines
"You're the funniest man in the world"
