For the Love of Funny: Trey + Katie Kennedy and Jake Triplett

About this sermon

We’re back with more funny, and this week doesn’t disappoint. For those of you who grew up in the Bible Belt and maybe went to a conservative church (or even if you didn’t), perhaps you grew up a little sheltered like our guests this week did. Before racking up over 12 million combined followers on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and elsewhere, and hosting the hit podcast Correct Opinions, comedian Trey Kennedy came to fame on the short-form videosharing app Vine. His hilarious and pointed videos ranged from imitating a church youth pastor who is cornily trying to be cool and up on pop culture, to an overly sunny Dad who tries to drag his teenage son out of bed to go to church. Now, Trey has teamed up with his friend Jake Triplett, who he met at a Christian camp, and the two co host the podcast, along with Trey’s wife Katie (who keeps the pair on track and from going down too many rabbit holes). In this episode, the trio and Jen share the commonalities of their Baptist church upbringings, their naiveté about dating customs (hearing Jake’s assessment of what he thought french kissing was will make you howl), and how Trey’s Bible wielding grandmother had a serious talk with him about rumors of him being gay (He’s not. Not that there’s anything wrong with that). They've managed to turn being 'sheltered' into comedy gold, and they’ve been taking their brand of comedy all around the country with their recent “Grow Up” tour and their clean comedy is resonating everywhere. Their funny spin on their past doesn't just give us a good laugh; it also makes anyone who had a similar childhood feel like part of a big, quirky family. * * * Thank you to our sponsors! ➤ Jen Hatmaker BookClub | Visit https://jenhatmakerbookclub.com and use code READ at checkout $5 off your purchase! ➤ FOCL | Visit https://focl.com/ and use code FORTHELOVE at checkout for 20% off of your purchase ➤ ABLE | Visit https://www.ableclothing.com/ and use code JEN to save at checkout #ForTheLove #ForTheLovePodcast #JenHatmaker _________ CHECK OUT Resources Mentioned in This Episode: ➤ Vine - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vine_(service) ➤ Correct Opinions (Podcast hosted by Trey, Katie, and Jake) - https://treykennedy.com/podcast/ ➤ Trey Kennedy’s Grow Up Comedy Tour - https://treykennedy.com/tour/ ➤ Jake Triplett’s Sheltered Kid Special - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTJ-Gbw0fog ➤ Shiny Happy People Docuseries - https://www.amazon.com/Shiny-Happy-People-Duggar-Secrets/dp/B0B8TR2QV5 ➤ For the Love Episode ft.
