Description

Comedian, Shama Mrema  ("shama4realz") loves the church and enjoys making "church folks" laugh. His Instagram features comedy sketches about evangelical culture, and the comments show that many share the same humor. But, is there a line one can cross, when making light of Christian culture? Can one take it too far? In this week’s episode, you’ll get to know a little about Shama's background, including his origins in Tanzania East Africa, his current dwelling in Greenville, South Carolina, and how he stumbled upon comedy. Joey and Shama discuss the Christian faith, comedy in general, and the various facets of how Shama brings the two together.At the top of the episode, Roy, Lynne, and Tomelex have a conversation on the same topic of comedy, and also reflect on Roy and Lynne's trips to Africa, including Lynne's awareness of being perceived not by her common color with many Africans, but rather her status as an American.

The Seacoast Podcast: Things You Won't Hear On Sunday captures meaningful – and often challenging -- conversations that happen off the stage amongst the people of Seacoast. Hang with us and guests we love to learn from, including authors, artists, pastors, and many others who share their stories of struggle and oftentimes, how God's grace brought about peace and redemption. We hope listening in to our discussions revolving around church, theology, and culture will feel like slowing down and hanging with friends. You'll be encouraged, laugh, find solidarity with someone else's story, or see things from a new point of view. What if listening to other perspectives was the first step in loving people with a different point of view? We're giving it a shot.
