The Laugh in Peace Comedy Tour.

Hope. Healing. Humor.

That’s what I offer.

Because life’s hardest trials are not our full stop.

 “Laughter, like music, is a universal language.
And Susan Sparks speaks this language like no other.”

–Naomi Judd, Multi-platinum Country Music Artist, Best Selling Author and Actress

 “Imagine a combination of Reba McIntyre and Jodie Foster … in a pulpit (or on a stage). Add a wicked sense of humor and you have Susan Sparks.”

–Jen Haupt, Author and Award-winning Journalist

 “An incredible pair of boots, a motorcycle, a wicked sense of humor and a heart that warms you like a huge southern-style breakfast. That’s my pastor Rev. Susan Sparks!”

–Tamron Hall, broadcast journalist and host of the ABC talkshow “Tamron Hall”
