Dallas,
Thank you for your ministry to the Menai Corps last Sunday. We have received lots of positive feedback regarding your prepared performance which was attended by many new folk from our local community.
God bless you as you continue in your ministry.

The show was received exceptionally well in our congregation. Many people in our church found themselves challenged to re-examine their lives to become more of a light to our community instead of being a “walking blackout.”
As Officers of The Hawkesbury City Salvation Army, we would recommend this show for any church or organisation that has a desire to have the Gospel presented in a contemporary, lively and inspirational manner. May God continue to be glorified through this new and exciting endeavour.

Whenever there is a fifth Sunday in the month, It's time for the Berkeley Corps family to come together and spend"Sunday at Berkeley" So on Sunday 31 October, Berkeley Corps invited Christian comedian Dallas Atkins to join in the afternoon fun.
Dallas entertained a crowd of about 90 with his comedy production called "Gospelomedy" a family comedy show with a Christian message.....At the end of the two hour show, Dallas brought a timely message of hope. Everyone left with the knowledge that it's ok to have fun in church.

I travelled with Dallas for a week as he did gospelomedy at churches and beach missions around the top of New Zealand's South Island.
Dallas handled challenging venues, weather and crowds with maturity, skill and success. He has both experience and talent in this field as well as a balanced and annointed evangelistic gift.
We saw 20 + non christians respond to the salvation call, including 12 young people at the most difficult show of all. Held in a tent in pouring rain with interruptions from the crowd Dallas pushed through and I watched as during the last song, Slipping Away, the seekers pressed forward, drawn by the Holy Spirit while the disinterested slipped out into the night. The same pattern occurred at each of the venues.
Dallas is valuable for his experience, uniqueness, talent, maturity and incredible sense of humour (if those 2 qualities can co-exist!)

Dallas Atkins from Australia, does a seriously funny show called Gospelomedy. www.messups.com
He’s a talented guy with a great ministry. For a Church that wants a humorous outreach show, this is the one to get. Grant is happy to provide a recommendation about him.

We want you to come again.
Thankyou so much for your ministry to us over the weekend. Your innovative and unique approach, rather than manipuulating the puppets, by actually playing the characters your self, was very engaging. To have presentaion on screen also engaging people well kept the story flowing. The feedback was great.
You were spiritually sensitve to the audience which may have been difficult considering the cafe atmosphere. I appreciate your personal passion to serve the Lord and your creative passion.
Blessings to you and the minstry.

<Tonight I went to church at New Plymouth AOG, who hosted a combined service with an extremely anointed combined music team, and visiting Christian comedian - yes there is such a thing! Dallas Atkins is doing his "Gospelomedy" show across New Zealand at the moment, and if you're thinking of getting creative with an evangelistic outreach, or if you just want a good laugh, I thoroughly recommend him. The more twisted your brain is (in a good way) the more you'll enjoy him. Click on the image for his website. His muppets are the funniest.

Dallas has put together a new concept called the “Gospelomedy” in which he creatively and cleverly brings to life some of the great Biblical characters of centuries past, using well known characters from Bands, Movies and TV that audiences relate to, portraying the great message of Jesus Christ. Dallas has recently ministered in our church with his “Gospelomedy” and was greatly received and enjoyed by all.
Dallas is enthusiastic, energetic and creative and has a burning passion to see people’s lives changed and challenged. Without hesitation we highly recommend his ministry and his character to you and we look forward to seeing the hand of God move in each place Dallas ministers at.

Dallas has a gift in communicating the Christian Gospel through words and a range of art forms such as music, drama, comedy, puppets and multi-media. His humour will relate particularly well to the Aussie culture and to both Christians and non-Christians alike.In his new presentation "Gospelomedy", Dallas introduces a range of Biblical characters in an entertaining and humorous way. We encourage you to take advantage of his ministry -we are sure you will be blessed'out of your socks'.
Pastor Jamie and Jillian Pryor, Director/Principal Unity College Australia
We had Dallas come and do his great new show 'Gospelomedy' and were blessed with a great message and lots of laughter. Dallas has so much energy and love for the LORD and this oozes in his show. God gives us gifts and Dallas has a real gift in sharing the gospel in a fun way with a serious message. All of Dallas work is orginal and he has a real talent in getting the audience involved and having a bit of fun with people. His own songs are truly inspirational..

Dallas is an Evangelist at heart-he has a God given love for the lost. He has the unique ability of entertaining and ministering at the same time. He does this proffessionally and with the creativity God has gifted him with (through music, drama, comedy, puppetry and data projection) He is able to competently connect with people of all ages

It was a real pleasure for us to host Dallas and his ministry ‘Gospelomedy’ recently at Eastgate Christian Community (AOG) in Byron Bay. Dallas came to us recommended by friends and he surely lived up to their recommendations. His ministry is what I call left field evangelism, being both entertaining and spiritual and for this reason ideally positioned to connect with the unchurched. As the people are being entertained and laughing Dallas somehow slips a poignant challenge to the reality of Jesus and the Gospel and they are in a position to readily receive it. I really enjoyed the presentation and recommend him and ‘Gospelomedy’ to you.

Dear Dallas with much love and appreciation from living word CC Romsey and Woodend for your "different approach" to Eangelism and preaching God's Word.
We truly have been blessed and pray that God will continue to use you see His Kingdom on earth expanded. May you be blessed in every area of your life.

Thanks Dallas for coming to NationLight Church- Chisholm in Canberra. The show kept the Adults laughing as much as the kids. I was inspired by the way you ministered relevantly with anointing and were able to get the people there to a point of decision. We have tried many different outreaches and yours is one of the best for the whole family. Any AOG pastors- Get this Guy - He is good! I'm trying to tell all my friends about your ministry.

I believe that Dallas new material will have the greatest impact on church people, encouraging them to live out their faith.
If you want to have a light hearted service with a powerful message I recommend Dallas to you.
Pastor Peter Dawson taree AOG 02 65512441
Dallas is also an exceptionally versatile and gifted performer - puppeteer, musician, singer and comedian. I would highly recommend his latest one man show to anyone seeking a fast paced variety show with an underlying gospel message. Gospelomedy will be thoroughly enjoyed by your congregation, but it's primary value is as an outreach to the unsaved.
Peter Ellis (Elder Erindale Christian Centre) 02 62314447
There were lots of laughs and surprises through the entire show. I was delighted to see how much the congregation enjoyed it, especially the children and the older adults. I laughed through the nostalgic songs of my youth as did the others 40 and above, but even some of the children knew the words too. ...... .I appreciated the gospel message appropriately incorporated into the prgram and a sensitive call for salvation at the end. This is the type of show that would make a good bridge for those a bit skeptical of churches or afraid to enter a church. I was pleased with the performance and also with the response of our church.

Atkins, presented a Gospelomody Show on a Saturday night, followed with one hour on the Sunday morning. Both presentations were of a professional nature, were very humorous and creatively conveyed the gospel message. It was great to see the children laughing and participating, teenagers giving it a hearty o.k. and everyone else laughing and thoroughly enjoying the show.
Dallas displayed a genuine desire in wanting to reach out to people with the Gospel Message. He was easy to work with and was highly organised in setting up and presenting the show.

Dallas ministered at our church in Bannockburn Vic in a show called Gospelomedy. Dallas worked tirelessly doing a saturday night show for 2 hours. He held the audience for every second with Biblical characters and multi media presentations with The Messup puppets and other items as he changed costumes.
Dallas finished with a song and video presentation of Jesus on the cross, while he sang 'Slipping away from me; a very challenging presentation. Dallas has not lost his passion for souls which I admire in him, his proffessionalism and expertise working with the audience is a must to see.
Gospelomedy comes highly recommended by me
