*Updated with Winner* Congratulations to reader Heidi H. (mowerman3@gmail.com)
So. About last night.
I laughed so hard my cheeks hurt and my sides ached. In the roar of the crowd, I could hear a woman laughing uncontrollably, slapping her knee and wheezing. It was me. It felt so good.
Tim Hawkins is a Christian comedian with an edge. He’s like a clean version of Larry the Cable guy. He’s quirky, off-the-wall and absolutely hilarious. He’s well-known for his YouTube song parodies (just type in his name on YouTube), but his stand-up act is my favorite.
Although, his Chick Fil A song is like a lullaby to me.
His jokes about the church, marriage and parenting are so funny because they are based on truth.
Some of my favorite lines of the night:
- The end time is near. We know this because of the invention of the Snuggie.
- Churches that are non-denominational are just Baptist with a cool website.
- Thesaurus prayers- people who pray like this, “Dear God, please lead, guide, direct, show us the way”
- What is up with people who squeeze your hand at the end of a prayer? KNOCK IT OFF. You’re freaking us out!
- The Duggars need a hobby.
- [On Twitter] No one gives two twits about what you tweet.
- You know you’re a parent when you end your sentences in LOUD ADVERBS “Come here quickly. Get over here pronto. Obey me now.”
- Tim ended the night with a song about “if you’ve tinkled (from laughing), I’ve done my job here.” And then, he thew out DEPENDS UNDERGARMENTS to the audience!
We stood in line and had Mr. Hawkins autograph his latest DVD. It’s 2 hours of hilarity. I said, “I’m giving this one away on my blog.” He said, “What’s the name of your blog?”
“We are THAT family,” I answered.
He laughed, “we are that family, too!”
Aren’t we all??
(sorry about the blurry shot-Have you ever tried to take a photo with a comedian? They don’t stand very still!)
So. Up for grabs: An autographed copy of Tim Hawkins newest comedy DVD, “I’m No Rockstar.” It’s two hours full of videos, jokes and songs. GREAT FAMILY ENTERTAINMENT! It’s sure to make you laugh, even cry, maybe reach for the Depends!
Have you ever heard a song or comedy act by Tim Hawkins? Is this your first intro? Leave a comment and tell me your favorite thing he does to be entered.
You can shop here.
I have never heard of him. The family loves comedy like this so I will check him out on You Tube. Thanks for the giveaway! Glad you had such a fun night!!
I love him…I’ve see him on Youtube…soooo funny. I love the Chick-Fil-a song as well!!
I’ve never heard of him – but thanks for the introduction and the opportunity to win the DVD!
The only thing I have ever heard was the chikfila song. I have got to go to youtube now. I would love a dvd with someone the whole family can watch. I get tired of the raunchy comedians. I am glad you had a great time and so glad you told us about him!
Oh we love Tim! We listen to all of his videos on YouTube. The one about the fire ant makes me grab the depends. Oh if he were a planner and not a comedian, he would throw the depends out before the first song! Chick-fillet is so funny. Any on marriage. Love the songs. Earnest take the Reel gets me every time.
He needs to sell a million dvd’s to get the funds to bring his family for an extended 50 city west coast trip so I can follow him up hwy 101 every night with my family.
I don’t know if I could pick just one thing! He’s hysterical. If I had to choose, it’d probably be 10 Things You Don’t Say to Your Wife! Good advice for any man! Thanks for hosting!
We absolutely adore Tim! He even makes my dh laugh out loud and that is pretty hard to do!
I have never heard of him before now, but He sounds like someone my husband would just love!
Thanks for the giveaway!
I have never heard him! I would love to win so I could hear his work!
I have never heard of him….. will be looking on you tube.
*I heart Tim!* My favorite of his is “Kids Rock” – popular secular songs re-worded by Tim – Hilarious!! You can find it on You Tube. I also like all of his marriage and parenting advise/stories. It must have been amazing to see him live – I probably would have needed some depends by the time he was done. Thanks for the giveaway!
We have never seen him except on YouTube but he is so funny! The Chick-fil-a song is my favorite because we LOVE Chick-fil-a and it is true that you always want what you can’t have (Like Chick-fil-a on a Sunday!). Can’t wait to see some new stuff!
We LOVE Tim Hawkins. We 1st heard of him on “homeschool family”
But we also love his Chick fill a song and “life Verse”
Homeschool Family cracks me up every time.
The Chick-fil-A song is my favorite!
I think of the Chik Fil A song every Sunday… Love it!
*LOVE* “The Homeschool Family” song! We like to watch it and laugh together – as we are a large, homeschooling family (although NOTHING like the one he portrays! lol!!!)
I’ve seen him on youtube – he’s great!!
I’m not familiar with him but I will be very soon!
i’ve heard of him, but never seen him! i’ll have to go find some of his stuff on youtube! sounds like you had an amazing night- oh, it feels so good to laugh til you cry!
Never even heard of Tim Hawkins, but we LOVE to laugh! And a good, clean Christian comedian would be GREAT!
Never heard of Tim Hawkins, but good clean entertainment is welcome in our house anytime.
I’ve never heard of him! Hubby and I will have to watch his YouTube stuff tonight!
I love his song parodies! Especially his homeschool song and also his “corporate” worship songs! So funny!!
My husband and I like to watch him on YouTube but haven’t seen him live. It must have been awesome. My husband’s favorite bit is “Things You Don’t Say to Your Wife.”
I’ve never heard of him….
wait….I have! My husband just watched Cletus Take the Wheel last week. And I just spent half an hour watching YouTube videos.
I would LOVE to win!!!!
Oh, we love Tim Hawkins! My cousin and I watch him all the time.
He’s new to me, but I look forward to hearing more about him.
Oh, my word! He is so funny…I would love to see a whole show! Since we are, ourselves home schoolers, we love his “The Home school Family” song, although my boys know about every song he has on You Tube. Glad you had a good time!
I’m not familiar with Tim, but I’m always on the lookout for good, clean comedians. Thanks for sharing and for the giveaway!
these are the things you don’t say to your wife. TOO FUNNY!!!
Total tossup between the Homeschool Family and Chick Fil A!
He sounds like a blast! Would love to win the DVD so I can hear him and share with my family.
Thanks for the great giveaway!
My son goes around singing “Ford we lift you name on high” and “Better is Hyundai than a …” We think he is hilarious!
I have heard about him and love his jokes about church – so true and so funny!
Rach
I’d never heard of him — thanks for the introduction! I’m always looking for stuff my kids can watch along with us.
I’ve never heard of him, but thanks for the introduction… I need more laughter in my days!
He makes me “pee in my pants” for sure!!!! I love when he does the bit about the “hedge” of protection. Chick’fil’a makes me laugh, too. My 14 yr. old son totally LOVES him.
I love his Chick Fil A song, but the one that really made me take notice of his comedy act was his song “A Homeschool Family.” A couple of my homeschooling friends actually were the ones who “introduced” me to him.
I’ve never really listened to him much but my teen loves him!
I’ve never heard of him, but my husband and two sons love good clean comedy so they would probably enjoy him.
I’ve heard of him before – seen a few of his songs on you tube – good stuff – his facial expressions add SO much!
My favorite was him talking about passing around his favorite Bible verse when signing autographs… Oops! Wrong verse…
Love him! He is sooo funny!
Tim Hawkins is great. Love the Chik Fil A song. Wish I could see him in concert but he’s not coming anywhere close to me this year so I’d love to win this CD.
The only Tim Hawkins I’ve seen is on YouTube, but he is hilarious!! My 12-year-old brother spends hours on YT watching Tim LOL My favorite of his is where he shares his favorite bible verse – it always has me rolling on the floor!
Love him! He makes me laugh, what’s not to like?
I have seen a little bit of his stuff on YouTube and I have to agree that the Chick Fil A song is my favorite.
And I do give two twits about YOUR tweets!
Just so ya’ know.
I’d not heard of him before, but I watched the YouTube video on Chick Fil A and loved it. Maybe it’s because we used to live in So. Carolina but now live in Minnesota and I REALLY MISS Chick Fil A – woe is me, there aren’t any here
Love Tim Hawkins! A girl from my church went to see him last night too. She was making us laugh just be reciting his jokes. Comedic play by play is the best if you can’t actually be there. Glad yall had a great time!
Tim newbie, but would love the DVD to become a full fledged groupie…he had me at Depends!
I haven’t heard of him before, but my husband is a YouTube junkie, and is always looking for something/someone new to laugh with, so I am betting he probably has heard of him! Sounds hilarious! I may have to look him up tonight, I am always in the mood for a good laugh!
I have heard him before and he is a great comedian. A good comedian doesn’t need to swear or use crude content!
Glad you had a fun night with him!
I have not heard of him but will be looking him up on YouTube. What a fun family outing for you guys (that’s northern for y’all!).
We LOVE him! So hard to choose a favorite, but we love the Fire Ant song! We joke about it with one of our best friend’s sons as well! At random times someone will start yelling Fire Ants! I’m gonna feed you to the fire ants! We love the things you don’t say to your wife too!
Never heard of him before, but he sounds pretty funny. I just checked out the homeschool song on youtube, and it cracked me up.
Our first encounter with Tim Hawkins was an infomercial for his ‘Full Range Of Motion’ DVD. I’m pretty sure that informercial was the first and ONLY one we’ve ever watched all the way through and more than once! He is GREAT!
I love Tim! My favorite is his spook on “Jesus take the Wheel” It’s the funniest music video ever!!!!
He’s my FAVORITE! We got to see him last summer at a conference we were attending. I laughed so hard I was sore in the ribs for the next 3 days. My favorite is also his stand-up. Best line: “Eating a Krispy Kreme is like biting into a baby angel.” LOL!!!!!
I only know of Tim from your Chik-fil-A post. Very funny stuff! Thanks for sharing him with me. I can definitely relate!
LOVE him! When I first discovered him, I spent hours on youtube listening to his stuff!!!
I don’t think I’ve ever heard of him, but I could really use some funny in my life right now – so I’m up for anything that will make me laugh.
I’ve heard some of his songs. I saw the chick fil a song b/c you linked to it once. It was pretty funny. Every time I drive by on a Sunday with a craving I think of that song.
wow…I have never heard of this guy but he sure sounds like a great night out (in) with DH watching his DVD
I love, love, love Tim Hawkins! We almost got to see him a couple months ago, but the day we found out he was coming was the day the tickets sold out (grr!). One of the funniest things he does is his “Hedge of protection” bit, or maybe the one about praying for Mcdonalds to nourish our bodies!
I think I like his Samson and Delilah song. But, really they all make me do the silent laugh!
I love his “The Government Can” video – absolutely cracks me up every time I watch it! Sounds like you guys had a fun night watching and meeting him
I’ve never seen him or heard him. This DVD would be a first for me
Never heard of him, I wonder if it’s a coastal thing? Have you heard of Brad Stine? “Put a helmet on” is one of his tag lines, he is clean, Christian and funny. I would love to win this, we are always looking for clean laughter.
LOVE Tim Hawkins. I haven’t gotten to see him in person, but his youtube videos are so funny. My favorite is his “Lord, bless this bag of cheetos and jumbo Dr Pepper” bit!
I have never heard of him, but I would love to watch him. Sounds hilarious!
His name sounds familiar, but I don’t know that I’ve ever actually seen him perform, unless he was on one of the Thou Shalt Laugh videos. His humor sounds just like the sort that we enjoy and I’d love to win this dvd. Does it come with a Depends Undergarment, just in case I need one?
Please enter me in the drawing. I haven’t heard Tim Hawkins before, but he sounds really funny and who couldn’t use a good laugh? Thank you!
Tim Hawkins is high-lair-ee-ouse! I envy you for getting to attend his show, but winning the DVD would be a good consolation prize.
His songs crack me up! He’s great!
I’ve heard of him, but haven’t heard/seen anything of his! I’m off to youtube to check him out!
His Chick-fil-A song is pretty fun…we usually sing it on the way home from church on Sunday’s, because we pass Chick-fil-A and all too often we’ve said, “Hey! Let’s go to Chick-fil-A for lunch…oh wait, it’s Sunday. They’re closed.”
His stuff on what not to say to your wife is good too. All around funny guy.
I LOVE Tim Hawkins! I’ve seen his YouTube videos about a dozen times each. My family would thoroughly enjoy his DVD.
My favorite songs of his are Homeschool Family and Hey There Delilah.
Heather
I’ve not heard of him, but I’m heading over to Utube! Even without hearing him, I can tell you that my favorite thing about him is that his humor is clean and family friendly!
Love, love, LOVE Tim Hawkins! He is absolutely hilarious. I first was introduced to him with his homeschooling parody set to the theme from the Adams Family.
My favorite though – the blurb he does on what moms say. It’s SO true! I even love the Chick-Fil-A one and I have never been to one! (None in my entire state – a tragedy from what I understand.)
We *love* Tim Hawkins! I’m so jealous that you got to go. He came to our town and my husband, due to his weirdness about purchasing things online, procrastinated too long and the show sold out. Grrr!
We sing the Chick-Fil-A song about once a week, but we’re also extremely fond of his Super Nannie skit…”say goodbye to your brothers and sisters; let’s go meet JESUS.” Hilarious.
We love him!!!! The first time I ever saw him was the homeschool family—been a fan ever sense! But my fav is definitely the savio song done to that credit check commercial! Too cool
OH MY GOSH!!! WE LOVE HIM SO MUCH!!!
He’s so ADHD!!
That’s one of my favorite things about him.
His musical talent is incredible! Seriously, dude is gifted!
PS
My college age son……WOULD FREAK OUT if I won this!
I’d totally give it to him.
I have never heard of him before, but I SO needed the life of his youtube vidoes tonight!
Thanks for sharing!
One of the first things I ever saw on YouTube was the Chick-fil-A song…SO funny, I had to watch it over & over!
I have never heard of him, but I know both my hubby and I would thoroughly enjoy it!!!!
THanks!!!
His Chick Fil A song was my first introduction and when I saw it I watched all the clips on his website!
I love Tim Hawkins and have seen him in person twice at youth events in Texas!
My favorite is Cletus take the Reel–hilarious!
I’ve only seen a couple of his videos but this sounds like it would be a blast!
We went to see Tim in Feb. Loved him. Totally understand the laughing until your cheeks hurt! Would love to see his new DVD. I am a Chick-fil-A tea girl and Homeschool Mom. He nailed me with the tea and nugget song.
We were first introduced to Tim Hawkins with “These are the Things You Don’t Say to Your Wife,” and loved him. We love to sing the corporate worship songs. Our boys (17 and 12) love to listen to him as well. I think they know all the words to “I Work at Subway.”
Tim Hawkins makes me laugh so hard no sound comes out. : ) My best friend, Kat, let me borrow this dvd just this week, and we have thoroughly enjoyed it. That’s the understatement of the week. : )
My favorite thing (and I don’t want to spoil it for anyone who hasn’t seen it) is when he’s running around on stage like Mick Jagger looking for his car…AND when he gets the breath knocked out of him. Oh my gosh, it is SO funny!
I haven’t heard of him, but I am heading to the YouTube site now to check him out!! Thanks for the introduction!
I listen to a lot of Christian comedians, but I have never heard of Tim Hawkins. I would love to win this DVD!
I have heard the Chick-fil-A song. I REALLY like the song “The Government Can”.
Love, love, love him! We like his homeschool family song.
I have never heard of him before, but God knows that I could use some laughter!
Oh.My.Soul. I LOVE Tim Hawkins!! I have watched several YouTube videos (chick-fil-A is my fav though) and sat through an infomercial about him NUMEROUS times. He cracks me up. He reminds me of Mark Lowry.
I have watched his “old people”songs on Youtube…pretty funny!
haha! I had not heard of him. My Husband and I loved him! I posted about him on FB and blogged a link to your giveaway. A few of my Homeschooling friends knew of him:)) Thanks for the fun!
We LOVE Tim Hawkins! Pick me! Pick me!
We LOVE Tim Hawkins. My daughter has a few DVDs, but not this one. This might almost make up for me not taking her to see him when he was in town… almost.
I’ve never heard of him, but will youtube him in a bit! Thanks for putting out the word on good comedians!
Tim Hawkins makes me cry laughing, too. I love all of his stuff, but I forward the link to “The Homeschool Family” the most often..
That was too cute. I cant even count the number of times I have tried to go to Chic Fil A on a Sunday. Each time the kids so sweetly remind me “Duh Mom…you always do this.”
I love the story he told about signing his favorite verse with his autograph, only to realize it wasn’t the right one. He had Psalm38:7 instead. It says,”For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease…”
only heard his Chic fil a song. but the video sounds great !
Oooooh!! I SOOOO wanted to see his show! I love his songs on youtube, but my favorites are probably either “The Government Can” or his Chic-fil-a song. Both are hilarious!
My whole family–we’re all groupies!! So, in true groupie-like fashion, please sign me up for the dvd! Thanks!! So glad it was such a fun night for ya’ll!
I love the song…the things you don’t say to your wife.
I adore his song about homeschoolers. As a mom who is starting her 10th year this fall, it’s so much fun to sit back and reflect with that song.
I have never heard of him but will have to check him out. Thanks for sharing. And we would love to win.
He is hilarious. I first heard him on the The Homeschool Song. Also, his story about his favorite bible verse! Too funny! Would love his dvd for the family to watch!
love those jokes –no never heard him before–would to win the dvd
I saw Tim Hawkins perform at our church last year, also!! LOVED every minute of it! He is from the same area where we live so it was funny to listen to him put a spin on things locally. So glad you got to hear him (and meet him). We have that same DVD, so please let someone else have it if my comment happens to be the random one chosen. I was just so excited to see that someone else had seen him and wanted to share my enthusiasm I guess.
His Chick Fil A song is awesome! I’d love to win, thanks for the chance!
I love when he talks about homeschooling. “We have NO IDEA how our kids are doing. We don’t even know what grade they’re in. What grade is my son in? Uh…how old are you, son? Nine?…..Ninth!” My son likes when he talks about riding the Dallas DART bus, and how you couldn’t name it that in Fresno. But of course, when you’re 14, any conversation that mentions anything about intestinal gas is hysterical.
I think “Cletus take the Reel” is hysterical!
Love Tim Hawkins! We have his Chick Fil-A song memorized, but “The Government Can” video’s pretty funny, too!
Oh my word!! We just saw Tim Aug, 19th – he was such a hoot!
My favorite thing he does? Wow, hard question. I guess the Chick-fil-A song. We sing it daily in our house.
I love the Homeschool Family Song!
Oh my gosh, my kids would LOVE it if I won this!
The ChickfilA song is my favorite b/c who hasn’t experienced the disappointing realization that you can’t have ChickFilA on Sunday? It’s probably the only thing I don’t like about Sunday. Well, that and its proximity to Monday…
I’ve only heard little bits of him on the radio, and he is so funny! Thanks for the chance!
Tim came to our town last year and we got to see him at a free concert. He was soooo funny. Our church made it a DATE night and we had sitters at the church for the kid. It was a great night.
I think mine and my hubbies favorites are the Things you don’t say to your wife and Cletus take the reel. :^)
I’ve him on You Tube. He’s funny! I really like the one about the homeschool family.
He is so funny! Where did you see him? I am so jealous! CHICK-FIL-A song is the best!!!! Thanks for picking up the shoes…how is it going?
I have never heard of him, but if he is funny and family-friendly, count us in!
I’ve never heard of him but as a Christian Homeschooler, I could use a good laugh!
He sounds hilarious. How refreshing….good, clean Christian comedy
I had never heard of him until reading your blog. He seems great though. Have you ever heard of Chonda Pierce. I’m a Turrbo host for her. She is a Christian comedien as well. I love her so much. Just read my latest entry on my blog!! Can’t wait to learn more about Tim Hawkins.
we LOVE his youtube videos, especially the Chick-Fil-A one!
This is my first intro, but after this comment I am going STRAIGHT to YouTube!! I can’t wait! Your recommendations never displease, disappoint, fail, dissatisfy, or let me down!!
I love all of his stuff! We saw him at the homeschool conference last year and I was laughing so hard that I was crying!! He’s hilarious!!
We have watched him on you tube. We like his Chick Fil A song, home school and our fav the Government Can.
Tim Hawkins is amazing! We love him! We love the spoof on homeschooling.
Never heard/seen him before but he sounds funny!
jennifer @ beautifulcalling.ca
Always in need of a good belly laugh!
This is the firat I’ve heard of him but I will be checking out his youtube videos! Sounds great!
theladyinblack3@gmail.com
I must say I love Tim Hawkins. I have 2 favourites, “My favourite Bible Verse” and “Corporate Worship”. I find that both are hilarious!
My absolute favorite is the Chick-Fil-A song. Mostly because I too could eat there seven times a day!
Sounds like a great time. Thank you for sharing!
I’ve never heard of him-I’ll go check out Youtube
I thought the Homeschool Family song was really funny, since we homeschool.
“Show ‘em your tall finger!” gets us every time.
The scary bedtime prayer!!! We watch it over and over… my kiddos don’t quite get it, but my husband and I have tears rolling down our cheeks! (Also love the worship leader bit- we’re Church of Christ, and when he turns his guitar around backwards, well, it’s all over…)
Thank you!
I’ve never heard of him, but I’d love the chance! I used to enjoy watching the stand-up comedians on tv, but most of them use too many adult situations for me to watch when my kids are awake. Love the idea that this guy is really funny AND family-friendly!
Dude,
Tim Hawkins *IS* hilarious. He came and did a show near my hometown. We didn’t get to see it, but we did spend a “date night” watching his stuff on YouTube! Too funny!
He is so funny! I’d love a copy — so awesome you got to meet him.
I absolutely LOVE his Chic Fil A song! First time I heard it I kind of had tears from laughing and, well, it’s just that song!
I’ve heard the Chick fil a song but I’d love to hear more. Thanks for the chance to win.
