he story of Tim "Steptwin" Jones is lurid tale - a tale of greed, betrayal, and unrequited love; a tale of two sister's undying loyalty set against the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War. But mostly, it is the tale of you and me.
HE'S AN INSPIRATIONAL SPEAKER! Tim Jones, a 1981 graduate of Johnson Bible College, is one of the preaching ministers at New Life Christian Church in the DC 'burbs since 2000. His is also a commercial artist, author of two books, history teacher, husband of 1 and father of 3, and lover of Tater Tots. With his storytelling style, he's been a keynote speaker at many conferences, conventions, and retreats for 20+ years now, including:
Southeast Christian Church events
Tennessee Christian Teen Convention
Pennsylvania Christian Teen Convention
Cincinnati Christian University
Iowa Christian Convention
Spiritual Renewal, Milligan College
Tim also does corporate motivational speaking, most recently for State Farm Insurance, teaching "Dog Excitement and Drunk Fun" in the workplace.
YOU'LL LAUGH, BUT YOU'LL NEVER FORGET THE MESSAGE!
HE'S A COMEDIAN! It is rumored that, as a boy, Tim was once bitten by a radioactive clown. Tim's educators can all stand in line and testify to the maxim that Tim often states: "Comedians in the larva phase are not pretty"
In the early years, comedy for Tim was falling out of chairs in math class or drawing goofy likenesses of various study hall teachers in the blue-collar steel town of Latrobe, PA. Eventually, Tim crawled down out of the trees, learned to make fire, and evolved into a bona fide funny guy. His early career was spent as a church teen counselor and as a history teacher, two professions crying out for comedy. His first professional gig was at a hoedown in Pittsburgh, a city renowned for it's hoedowns. Armed only with a guitar and a twisted sense of humor, Tim first began to create comedy songs in his work in summer youth camps.
From there things really took off. (The use of the phrase "really took off" is not intended to imply financial success, but lots of gigs. Low-paying gigs. Like in church basements and small birthday parties) With Tim's uncanny business savvy and his moving to the comedy mecca of Louisville, KY, he managed to keep himself quagmired in obscurity for years.
Today, Tim travels around the country performing at conventions, corporate meetings, colleges, schools, churches and snipe hunts.
His style is observational: "I'd like to meet the guy who designed toilet roll dispensers..." musical; "Ode to Estrogen", e.g. and interactive- "Bring yer own Blues" where he makes up a blues verse on the spot based on suggestions yelled out from the audience. He uses songs, impersonations, characterizations and his specialty, the Wisdom of Mr. Clue. Tim is a squeaky clean comic. His humor runs between "cerebral" for college crowds to "gross" for Junior High audiences.
And he's able to clear clogged breathing passages in as fast as 15 seconds. Oh, you need to book this one. Oh, yes.
