I have been performing magic shows since 1995, averaging over 60 programs each year, having performed over 1000 programs to date (2011).  85% of my programs are for ministry, but I do accept a few bookings for birthday parties, libraries, restaurants, schools, civic organizations, nursing homes, etc.  The ministry program teaches Bible principles and Scripture throughout the program, emphasizing the difference between ministry/performance magic and occultic, New Age magic.  I have presented my reading motivation magic show in over 35 libraries across the state of Mississippi.  In schools, I present a tobacco education program which also includes warnings against alcohol and drugs, with an emphasis on the positive virtues of good character, honesty and integrity.
