"At the risk of being redundant," he said, preparing to repeat himself, "here's an announcement I want to share with you again about an important upcoming event." If you're going to be in the Cincinnati area this coming Friday night, why not come and enjoy the show mentioned below?

PRESS RELEASE
[for immediate release]
Comedian Marty Daniels, developing a reputation for being "clean, smart, and funny," will perform on Friday night, June 27, in the building facilities Friendship Church, 1300 White Oak Road, just west of Amelia. Doors open at 7:00 P.M. and Daniels begins his performance at 8:00 P.M. Cost for the event is $1.00 per person.

A veteran of radio and the music industry, Daniels is wowing audiences with his fun perspectives on life. He manages to get laughs without resorting to profanity or sexual innuendo. What's particularly remarkable is that Daniels is gaining attention for his talent not within what some call "the Christian ghetto," but at mainstream comedy clubs, venues at which coarseness and profanity are often accepted practice.

Marty harnesses the madness of life in ways that leave corporate groups, marriage conferences, and comedy club patrons doubled over in laughter without the guilt. "Okay," the comedian says, "with half the guilt."

Daniels is, as he would put it, "the much younger brother" of Friendship Church's pastor, Mark Daniels. "I'm glad that we're able to present Marty to our community in this way," says Mark. "He's a genuinely funny man and I think it's good for people who may associate Christian faith with prune-faced legalism to know that when Christ makes you confident that God loves you, you're able to laugh...a lot."

For more information about the performance or for directions to the church building, contact the Friendship Church office at 513-752-5265. For more information about Marty Daniels' comedy, go to www.martydaniels.com.
