Meet Gordon Douglas
Comedy took Gordon from the nightclubs in Philadelphia out to Hollywood. Then he ended up in ministry! A wild thought soon came to him. He didn’t have to give up comedy for the ministry, he can do both - often at the same time!​
​
Gordon’s comedy mixes real life stories with “off the wall” physical comedy and his own hilarious view of life. You will relate to his side splitting stories from his life -- like dropping the sermon notes into the grave at his first funeral to his demonstration of changing his first diaper, to his now famous “pantyhose dance” that has folks rolling in the aisles. He helps us see the funny things all around us and find joy no matter what we are going through.
Meet Rhonda Corey
Embodying New England spirit, Rhonda blends authenticity with a lovable touch of sass.
​
Known for her special, “Wizard of Walmart,” released in spring 2023, Rhonda's trailblazing work in faith-based comedy was further recognized in 2025 when she received the LOL GCA Pioneer Award for Female Comedian. This prestigious honor highlights her mentorship, coaching, and leadership that have helped countless performers build a strong foundation for clean, uplifting comedy.
​
Rhonda frequently travels on the “Funny Together Tour,” a multi-comedian clean comedy experience tailored for churches, and has shared stages with renowned comedians including Michael Jr., Jeff Allen, and Rocky LaPorte.
Meet Ross Bennett
Ross left the United States Military Academy after deciding that he preferred to take aim and fire jokes instead of bullets. Since that day Ross' comedy career has taken him from New York to Los Angeles and all points in between.
​
Ross has developed a brand all his own described as "Comedy For The Rest Of Us" which resonates with everyday working class Americans who prefer clean humor that is both clever and politics-free.
​
Appearing on over a dozen television shows including Comedy Central's "Tough Crowd With Colin Quinn", A & E's "Evening At The Improv", and "The Late Show with David Letterman," Ross released a full length special, "Comedy... For The Rest Of Us," with Dry Bar Comedy, which has been viewed millions of times.
