#413: Can I Take Joy Seriously? With Tim Hawkins

from 4:13 Podcast with Jennifer Rothschild · host Jennifer Rothschild, Tim Hawkins

CLICK HERE to take the Podcast Survey You've laughed with Tim Hawkins for years—but today, you get to meet the man behind the comedy. In episode 413 of the 4:13 Podcast (wink!), Tim shares the story behind his journey into comedy, the failures that shaped him, and what he's learned about making people laugh. And (spoiler alert!) it's not about being witty or delivering the perfect punchline. You'll also find out how he decides which jokes become part of his routines (including his popular song parodies), which topics don't make the cut, and how his family feels about becoming part of the act. But more importantly, you'll get to hear Tim's heart. He's clever, thoughtful, and passionate about using the gifts God has given him well. Because, as C.S. Lewis says, "joy is the serious business of Heaven," and it should be at the heart of how we live out our calling.
