To her legion of fans and friends, Chonda Pierce is the most accessible and open “celebrity” in comedy. Even with that transparency, only pieces of her story have been revealed in live concerts, comedy DVDs, books and her popular FaceBook page. And the last three years, which have seen dramatic and tragic changes in Chonda’s life, show how a loving God, faithful fans and supportive friends have helped Chonda through the darkest times in her career. Laughing In The Dark chronicles Chonda’s life, her struggles and God’s faithfulness in a way that only Chonda can – with openness, honesty and the humor everyone has come to expect from the best-selling female comedian in history. But it is more than her story. It reveals a path to hope and healing for all those who are suffering from depression, anxiety, loss and grief.
