Part 3

Comedian Jeff Allen, wasn't always a happy, well-adjusted comedian. At one point, he was a victim of alcohol and drug abuse, living a depressing life and struggling to get by from day to day. Finally, the threat of losing the one person who had been his touchstone through those struggles made him turn to a new source of strength.
Jeff Allen met Tami in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. She was a club waitress. They fell in love and got married, but as the drinking and drugs slowly tore Jeff's career apart, their relationship suffered as well. The low point came when, desperate to feed his family, Jeff couldn't even get a job delivering pizza. After years of rage, sadness and pain, Jeff and Tami decided to call it quits. With divorce papers signed, they were 10 minutes from the courthouse when they decided to try again. With two children, and barely any career left, comedian Jeff Allen hit rock bottom, turned to Alcoholics Anonymous, recovered himself, and through generous help from a total stranger, found comfort in God.
Comedian Jeff Allen shows why he's regarded as the world's funniest, most inspiring comedian in this vulnerable performance. Speaking on Fathers Day at the Victory World Church in Atlanta, Georgia, Jeff Allen talks about his battle with alcoholism and rage, to finally finding Jesus Christ and a new kind of peace. Jeff Allen is doing what he's always dreamed of doing: making people laugh, now Christian comedian Jeff Allen stands up for God.

  • I have felt that way! "Has anyone read this thing?? WOW! What a book!"

  • @referew According to the words of Mark Lowry and the bible: every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus is Lord. So, the question is not IF you will accept but WHEN you will. Please do so before it is too late. I pray that you will find the the same Jesus that this man found.

  • 'Life without God has no meaning, without meaning in your life there's no purpose, and if you don't have purpose for your life, suicide will ultimatly be your answer.' those are some powerful words right there

  • @ScientologySucksAss Your own personal choice. Deal with it.

  • gods fake, deal with it.

  • Jeff, I started listening because of the humor...listened to all your youtube vids. This one, when you found Christ, is the best. God bless your life much. If I don't meet you here, see you in heaven. Greg Ellars in Oregon

  • I have a simpler problem and I just 15. I've known about Jesus Christ all my life but I have never truly loved Him and longed to serve Him until recently. I have a lot of problems, pride, greed, anger (hatred), laziness, envy, gluttony and lust. Maybe even insanity or something else, something worse. I have even looked at porn. I hate or hated myself. But I know God loves me. God loves you as well.

  • I have simpler problem and I just 15.

  • Wow, that was beautiful

  • awesome testimony
