Speaking
Humor and hope for those who hear.
Good, clean laughter is hard to come by these days. My goal in speaking to groups is to convey God’s loving truth while letting humor and liveliness be hallmarks of my speaking.
SPEAKING
I’ve trained in public speaking through the following: University of North Carolina (Chapel Hill, NC), the American Comedy Institute (New York, NY), and the DC Improv (Washington, DC).
Through speaking opportunities with various ministries and churches, I always try to combine the timeless message of the Bible with the “good medicine” of laughter.
TESTIMONIAL
“Joy spoke with ease, captured our attention and took us deep. She was well prepared, wove in interesting stories that were relatable and triggered our memory of the content later. She caused our group to break out in laughter and then later wipe away tears. Joy was creative adding fun “surprises” as well as directly engaging the audience and asking for responses. Her message flowed naturally and stayed on track. Her points at the end brought us back to the beginning. Joy is sincere and truly is a joy! Many stepped up to speak with her afterwards as you feel she is speaking directly to you!”
