Jesse the Juggler
Jesse Joyner Telling the story of Jesus through the sport of juggling
Jesse Joyner is a master juggler and a captivating storyteller. Having experience as a children's pastor, he's adept at teaching the Gospel in levels of understanding that are fun and memorable, albeit unusual. Jesse's routines are engaging and often rely on audience participation and find relevant, meaningful ways for children (and adults) to learn about God's kingdom and plan.
Jesse performs an astonishing program of superior juggling, balancing, illusions and comedy - all the while using his routines (and audience volunteers) to tell the story of Jesus Christ. He started in the professional entertainment arena at age 17 and has since performed his juggling all over the world - from Israel to Belize. He starred as Shaggy in the Scooby Doo show at Paramount's King's Island and he has made street performance appearances in Europe, New York City, and the Kentucky Renaissance Faire. While in college, he felt led by the Lord to use juggling not only as entertainment, but also as a creative instrument through which to preach and teach.
Jesse's presentation is flexible enough to fit with most any setting. And there is very little set-up needed. His most common routine is a stage show that lasts between 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the needs of the event. This will include:
Juggling
Illusions
Audience Participation
The message of Christ woven throughout the routine
Time for questions and answers with the audience
Other things (such as prayer, altar calls, juggling lessons, etc.) can be worked out per event.

"Our kids LOVED Jesse the juggler! He was very entertaining and kept their interest (and our adults enjoyed him too) but he also gave a clear presenation of the gospel through his act. I highly reccomend Jesse Joiner!" ~ John Leece, Norcross First UMC, Norcross, GA
