Tommy Morin:
In 1992, GOD changed Tommy Morin's act!
During his professional career as a stand-up comedian Tommy thought he had it all. A life filled with drugs, alcohol, exceedingly fast living, and a large payday at the end of the week was his idea of arriving at the apex of success.
One morning while visiting a small church (March 15, 1992 at the invitation of a friend) Tommy met Christ and found out how wrong he was. He soon gave up the club scene and began pursuing God as passionately as he had once pursued his career. Over the next several months (after putting down the microphone and never thinking he would pick it up again) he began speaking at prisons, high schools, and varied ministries using stand-up as an extension of his message.
Since then Tommy has worked with every population of young people, including work as a motivational speaker with the Dept. of Youth Services for the City of Boston. The work he does in and outside of the church with young people has been some of the most rewarding, challenging, and hilarious of experiences he could have imagined.
Tommy's career this time had found him and not him it. Along with acting in film and television commercial work, he is also a writer. He has written a pilot for a sitcom, a screenplay, and a one-man show called, "The Manic Hispanic “. He continues stand-up work for corporate and charity events, youth based programs, and college campuses.
"It continues to be an amazing journey as I share my life, humor, and faith with some of the most incredible people that I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. I am under new management and He has one unbelievable sense of humor."

Teen Challenge:
Teen Challenge New England is a locally operated, registered non-profit organization offering residential care and practical mentorship for people suffering life-controlling problems.
Drug and Alcohol addiction is at an all-time high in the United States. According to SAMHSA (Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) there are at least 23 million people who have used illicit drugs in the past thirty days. For us to understand the impact on society-- the population of Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, Alaska, Wyoming, and the Dakotas is less than 23 million. Every person who uses illicit drugs directly affects a minimum of five other people. We have an epidemic in America!
Since 1958, Teen Challenge International USA centers have been recognized nationally as a provider of recovery services for those who desire to transform their lifestyle and develop a new life free from the devastation of drug and alcohol abuse.
Since its beginning, Teen Challenge centers have founded their programs on the teachings of Jesus Christ. These Biblical truths have physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually unchained the lives of thousands of addicts. Instead of ‘dope’ pushers, Teen Challenge ministries are serving as ‘hope’ pushers. As their personal testimony, Teen Challenge students often claim the scripture, “I have plans to give you a hope and a future”. (Jeremiah 29:11, NIV)
"The mission of Teen Challenge is to evangelize people who have life-controlling problems and initiate the discipleship process to the point where the student can function as a Christian in society applying spiritually motivated Biblical principles to relationships in the family, local church, chosen vocation, and the community. Teen Challenge endeavors to help people become mentally sound, emotionally balanced, socially adjusted, physically well, and spiritually alive."

In an evening of stories, Randy uses humor and courage as he paints a vivid picture of what people at work wish Christians would--and wouldn't do for Jesus. You'll laugh--and cringe--at some of the funny things Christians do in the name of Jesus on the job, but you'll also be deeply moved by the courage and powerful effects of others. Along the way, you may even recognize yourself in some of those tales. And you won't want to miss the "Five Things non-Christians Wish Their Christian Coworkers Would Be" as Randy takes us on a roller-coaster ride of emotion that is...or could be...the story of any Christian who works, including you!
