On this special episode of “Things That Matter,” we briefly take a break from panel discussion as Pastor Joel Turner of Mountain Springs Calvary Chapel in Canada traveled down to our studios to share about comedy for a preacher. Through his testimony, Joel reminds ministry leaders and believers alike that humor matters and is a useful tool to connect with people.

Brian Brodersen is the senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, CA, president of Calvary Chapel Bible College and featured speaker on “Back to Basics” radio program.

​Prior to the Lord's calling him into the ministry, Joel was a comedian in western Canada. He now divides his time between evangelism and teaching at Mountain Springs.
