A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Pulpit: Local Pastor Emerges as Stand-Up Comedian

He’s a rarity, that’s for sure. A guy who’s equally at ease while preaching from the Bible in a church or delivering a punch line at a comedy club. That’s right, State College’s Jonathan Weibel is both an ordained pastor and a professional stand-up comedian. Appropriately enough, he jokes about his curious combination of professions. “I fly a lot,” says the clergy comic, “and one of the first things someone says to you on a plane is, ‘What do you do for a living?’ If I want to talk to them, I tell them I’m a stand-up comedian. And if I’m tired and don’t want to talk to them, I’ll tell them I’m a Baptist evangelist.” Weibel has served in Christian ministry for nearly 40 years. The last 30 years have been spent in the Centre Region, where he’s planted three new churches and served as lead pastor, worship pastor or youth pastor at State College Alliance Church, Penns Valley Community Church and Centre Church.

Montco’s Record Book: 10 Places That Are the Biggest, Oldest, or Only One of Their Kind

Montgomery County hides remarkable distinctions in plain sight. A Quaker meetinghouse begun around 1695 still hosts weekly worship in Lower Merion.

This Pennsylvania Cathedral Could Quite Easily Pass for a Church in Medieval Europe

A chest beneath one altar holds 84 relics of saints and martyrs, including Saint Patrick. That detail alone made me stop scrolling. Construction began in 1875, and the cathedral was dedicated in 1893. The bishop behind it refused to build unless the money was already in hand, so the walls rose slowly, stone by red stone.
