Hey! Thanks for stopping by and considering me for your event. I understand the challenges of finding just the right speaker and my hope is this page will help you get the information you need to make the best possible decision for your occasion.
Over the years I have been to hundreds of presentations, church services, and conferences and realized the success of the event often come down to the speaker’s presentation. When a speaker does a great job, everyone wins. If they do a poor job, unfortunately, it’s often an uncomfortable experience.
I want you and your event to win and I’d love to take part.
Here’s my experience
- I spoke nearly every week as an executive pastor, youth pastor and worship leader for nine years.
- I have experience as the main speaker, host, emcee, and conducting interviews.
- I have also spoken at other events like FCA huddles, bible study groups, and school events.
- Not only do I speak on a regular basis, but I also help coach students to preach and teach.
- I use Andy Stanley’s model of creative speaking which helps the listener engage, show the problem, give the solution, and take action.
What You Can Expect
- Prompt, professional replies to your phone calls, text messages, and email messages.
- A personal phone call so I can better understand how I can best serve you and your audience.
- Punctuality.
- A well prepared, dynamically delivered message.
- A quick follow-up email after the event to make sure I met your expectations and any improvements that I can make.
Video Clips
Here are two examples of my speaking. These are on a Sunday morning at my old church in KC. It’s funny, but I think I’m wearing the same shirt even though these are five months apart. I guess I really like that shirt!
Possible Topics
My favorite topic to speak on is Jesus, but I also speak on topics related to leadership, life balance, intentional living, productivity, healthy relationships, marriage, and parenting.
I will develop content and customize my presentation to meet your needs. My goal is to partner with both you and the Lord to help the vision that is in your heart.
Here is a list of some of my favorite things to talk about
- Take Heart: What is the fear beneath our frustrations? We can take heart because Jesus has already beat it. (see video above)
- GOATs (Training not trying): Do you feel disappointed with your life? Often we live feeling disappointed at our lack of transformation. But transformation is possible because of who Jesus is and what He has done. One of the greatest of all time (GOATs) is the Apostle Paul and he told Timothy to train in godliness. Training helps us experience the transformation. (see video above)
- Lifeline: How do we find security in an insecure world? Jesus is the lifeline (anchor) for our souls.
- Who He Is: What do you think about God? Our perception of who He determines how we will live life. If we want a clear picture, we need to go to the source.
- Plain & Simple: Life is complicated. But the plain and simple gospel is more than enough to meet all our needs. The revelation of who Jesus is and what He has done will change everything.
- Live Intentional: Do we recognize the power of our choices? We all fall in the trap of trying to do it all and have it all. But what we don’t realize is that we are making unhealthy trade-offs that we would never make if we thought this thing through.
- Simplify: Most of us are over-scheduled, overburdened, and exhausted. How do we simplify to focus on the most important things in life?
- It’s a Matter of Preference: Do you prefer beef or chicken? How about coffee or tea? You or me? Often the health of a marriage is a matter of preference.
- Parenting 101: Do you correct before connecting? Children hear correction ONLY when they first connect. This one simple principle will change how you parent.
Fees: $500-$1000 depending on the location, event, and topic. If you’re interested in having me speak multiple times in a conference type setting, please contact me with details and we can discuss.
