DEFINITION OF CHRISTIAN COMEDY
Excerpt #1
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_comedy retrieved March 8, 2023
"
The material often contains Christian references, although this is not a requirement. From 2006 notable performers like Victoria Jackson, Tim Conway, Sinbad and Patricia Heaton appeared on a DVD series for the Christian market entitled, Thou Shalt Laugh.[1]
Christian comedy is increasingly being used as an outreach, with the idea that a comedy show is an effective method to bring people into church who may have never thought about coming.[2] Christian comedy is also used as a method to renew and refresh the spirit of church members, based on the Bible passage that says laughter does a heart good, like medicine.[3]
Excerpt #2
From https://www.ceenaija.com/comedy-chris-chris-if-the-disciples-made-music/ "Comedy- "If the disciples made music" by Blessing Akinyode (no publishing date given.)
Gospel comedy is a unique form of entertainment that combines clean, family friendly humor with a Christian perspective, using personal experiences and stories from the Bible to convey positive messages of faith, hope, and love. If you are looking for a fun and uplifting form of entertainment, gospel comedy is definitely worth checking out!"
