In this lighthearted but deeply meaningful episode, Steve Wyatt is joined by John Samples and Mary Beth Dodd to explore the power of humor in the Gospel. From why Steve almost named the show Laughing Jesus Radio, to tales of wheelchair races in church basements and wedding bloopers that ended in baptistries, this is one of the most joy-filled episodes yet.

But beneath the laughs is a serious conviction: laughter breaks down walls. Steve makes the case that Jesus was not just serious—He was magnetic, playful, and full of joy. The Gospel is “good news of great joy,” and Christians, more than anyone, have every reason to laugh. Humor opens hearts, and in those moments, the Holy Spirit can do what only He can do.
