MATT JERNIGAN MUSICAL COMEDIAN AND IMPRESSIONIST Call (919) 816-2884 or visit www.LarryWeaver.com/Matt Presented by Larry Weaver Entertainment, LLC Christian Comedian Matt Jernigan will have your entire audience laughing with 100% clean comedy. Matt brings laughter to your soul with his impressions and parodies of artists from every era. Plus, he delivers a message of hope in Christ. Matt grew up in small town North Carolina, where he learned the general aspects of Jesus Christ. Originally he only saw comedy as a way to make a living and not to a way to honor God. After experiencing how empty that was, things changed. Upon moving to Los Angeles to pursue a career in Hollywood, Matt attended Cornerstone Church. He became good friends with Pastor Francis Chan (author of “Crazy Love” and “Forgotten God”). Francis taught Matt about the importance of our image of God, and Matt experienced firsthand from Francis how to live like Christ in this world. When speaking of his faith, Matt attributes his honest, conversational, and humorous style to his good friend, Francis. Today, Matt’s sole purpose is to honor God with his talents. He sees a need to reach out to non-believers through quality, cutting-edge entertainment. He feels as a Christian it is his responsibility to pull non-believers closer to Jesus by showing them things they can relate to, and by showing them that Christians are “real” and love to have fun. Also, Matt loves opportunities to encourage his Christian brothers and sisters to reach out to those who are lost. Along with his testimony of pursuing an entertainment career in Hollywood, Matt’s sincere desire for people to know God will captivate your audience. For Outreach events, appreciation dinners, date nights, Christmas banquets, and everything in between, Matt will have your audience rolling. But don’t take our word for it… “Matt Jernigan is funny! What a joy it was to see the church laughing and having a good time with him. He has a gift of not only making people laugh, but also leaving them with a deeper message. He’s successfully entertained for several events for our youth, adults, and singles. Matt is a gifted communicator, too. He led worship for several years at Cornerstone and I even had him preach for us. Matt’s heart shows in all that he does.” - Francis Chan, former teaching Pastor of Cornerstone Church of Simi Valley “Matt has a real heart for God, and a real talent for comedy. He had the crowd rolling from start to finish I couldn’t have asked for any better. The crowd was all his, and they showed how they loved him with a standing ovation.” - Chaplain Adam Ybarra, Oakland Raiders 1 0 0 % C L E A N 1 0 0 % C L E A N GUARANTEE
