Meet the Founders
Chris Wineland (co-founder)
Chris Wineland is an award-winning comedian, pastor, and author with a passion to bring hope to entertainers in their darkest moments. With nearly two decades in the entertainment industry, Chris witnessed firsthand the depression, addiction, and spiritual emptiness many entertainers
quietly struggle with. He quickly realized that comedians, actors, and creative professionals were not opposed to hearing about God. Instead, it seemed few people were willing to speak candidly with comedians and entertainers about Jesus.
In 2020, Chris wrote The Great Heckle for comedians and immediately received powerful feedback from entertainers saying things like, “I’ve known religion, but I’ve never known Jesus.” In addition to discipling entertainers, Chris also preaches globally at churches and conferences.
Chris Wineland is also a widely known, in-demand Christian comedian with multiple specials online. To learn more about his comedy, visit www.chriswineland.com.
