We are born to live FULLY ALIVE! ...yet at times we may feel like people who lead lives of quiet desperation. Somewhere along the way, all the passion that once burned in our souls has been smothered. It is about time we rekindled that flame!! With his trademark humor and powerful stories, Ken Davis shares about his personal journey, all the way from lethargic resignation, to a new life of adventure, spiritual renewal, eternal joy, and perfect health... or as Jesus might have put it, living life to its fullest. We are shown the very first snapshot that started it all, we share hours of terror that changed Ken s life forever and then meet this living fossil on his bicycle! Not only that: we ll also laugh and be inspired to live in the extraordinary power of Christ's Resurrection!! KEN DAVIS shares, This is the story of how I found my way back to the path of living Fully Alive, after years of wandering. I m not a stranger; I m not an expert; I m a fellow traveler; and I do fall down a lot. At age 65, KEN DAVIS is living FULLY ALIVE! Review: Fully Alive at 65! Great message, reminder, and encouragement - We love Ken Davis, and though this is not as humorous as some other DVDs (though still quite funny!), it really has a great message as he share how, in some ways, he is at age 65 only finally coming to appreciate this gift of life, and to life it fully. Funny, and a great message, built around St. Irenaeus' quote, "God's greatest glory is man [and woman, I assume!] fully alive." For me, that quote is right up there with the Westminster Catechism's claim that "The chief end of man is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever." To really sum it up, those two go well with the old Danish Proverb (quoted by Swiss theologian, Hans Urs von Balthasar), "What you are is Gof's gift to you; what you become is your gift to God." Davis notes when he was an unathletic youth, the high school coach said, in effect, he'd never amount to anything because he could not catch a football. And then an English teacher had him stay after school and with one sentence gave his life worth and direction--and pretty much influenced him becoming what he is even to this day. Watch the DVD. Enlightening! Review: Clean and Hilarious Humor! - Comedian Ken Davis tells stories about himself that are often so hilarious that I hooted with laughter. He talks about his recent renewal and deeper experiencing of life, encouraging the audience to experience the same. But he is not pompous; he talks honestly about his faults and foibles. It is good, clean humor, with no foul language, sexually racy jokes or snideness towards others. Ken Davis states that he is 65, and I think his recommitment to life would especially appeal to the 50+ crowd, but all ages, from 17 or 18 on up, were represented in his audience, and all were laughing. Towards the end of the routine, Davis refers a lot to his now strong Christianity, which had waned prior to his recent spiritual and physical renewal. It is a relief to come across high quality entertainment like this.

Very funny and a great message too!
I ordered 3 of his DVD 's and I enjoyed all of them! Love his humor and the messages he weaves in to it! I am 70 now and can so relate to this. Love how he relates to his audience and when I'm having a bad or sad day I just put in the DVD and my mood instantly changes...laughing and smiling is great medicine and Ken keeps me laughing til I cry. I highly recommend this one!

worth watching
Ken makes some big life statements using humor that my husband loves. I feel that he is making statements on life issues. The stories are great and great to watch with your older children. Its easier to appreciate this kind of humor if you are an older adult. I recommend this for any family.

Great family video and lessons to learn!
Family and I loved this video and had lots of laughs! Recommend it for everyone. Even his older dvds “Twisted Mind” and “I’m not Okay.” My kids enjoyed all of these and so do the adults!

Making it Count, You Need This!
This was uplifting and wonderful! You laugh, and realize how small and insignificant things are in contrast to the big picture of life, and what really does matter! My family laughed, cried, and felt tighter knit, and fell in love with this dvd, it is a must have!

Comedian Ken
Ken is a very funny man. Tells the best stories, jokes and plays with the audience. Underlying message is important also. Can show him to a church crowd or tour bus because his jokes are funny but clean.
