America’s Minister of Encouragement
Dennis Swanberg, an encouraging speaker, comedian, and humorist, served the local church in pastoral ministry for 23 years. Then, in 1995, he took a leap of faith – stepping down as church pastor to step up to the microphone on stages and platforms all across America.

As he hosted two successful TV series, authored 9 books, and created over two dozen DVD/CD productions, Dennis has loved bringing laughter to audiences across the country.
A Baylor University, Dennis Swanberg majored in both Greek and Religion (1976). He earned both a Master of Divinity (1980) and a Doctor of Ministry (1986) at Southwestern Seminary, Ft. Worth, TX.
In Granbury, Texas he lives happily with his wive, Lauree, Not to mention, his two grown sons, Chad and Dustin, continue to bring him joy, life lessons, and love.
