Don and Wanda Carr
His national television shows, "Swan’s Place" and, "The Dennis Swanberg Show," are described as "an hour of good, clean fun and entertainment, as well as spiritu-al insight and encouragement," and have been viewed by over one million house-holds weekly. In addition to over 150 ap-pearances each year, he has authored eight books.
Dennis will be with us this Friday through Sunday, and he'll be bringing a note of encouragement, a pocketful of hilarious stories, and a great big bag of joy and laughter. Plan to be here, and bring a friend or family member with you.
If laughter is truly the best medicine, then Dennis Swanberg, “America's Minister of Encouragement," is just what the doctor ordered. With his down-home charm and heaping-helping of hospitality, this pastor-turned-comedian has won the hearts of audiences across the country.
Dennis Swanberg takes more than twen-ty lovable impersonations, together with his side-splitting stories of growing up, families, and the funny side of church, to over 250,000 people every year. His audi-ences range from churches to marriage seminars, city-wide concerts, business-related events, and corporate gatherings.
Side-splitting comedy Soul-building message

The Connection between Righteousness and Spiritual Warfare
Unrighteousness ____________________ Satan’s activity in your life.
Unrighteousness ____________________ God’s activity in your life.
The Connection between Righteousness and Truth
Truth presents God’s _______________________.
Righteousness is our _______________________ to the truth.
