What Clients are saying...

Thank you for your WONDERFUL workshop on communication skills for couples. As you know, our annual marriage retreat is the highlight of our year and your talk was exactly what I was hoping for. You captivated couples with your creative style and helped them laugh at how they get hung up on communication issues with theirmates. The skills that you taught, in light of the many scriptural references, and exercises that we did were fantastic and truly impactful. Many speakers just build enthusiasm. You certainly did build enthusiasm, but also provided powerful content and practical exercises so that our couples really learn what you are teaching. Your presentation minimized their fears of managing difficult issues and unleashed their enthusiasm for greater growth in their marriages. I see them forging ahead with bigger commitments to their marriage, and I attribute much of that to your workshop. Mark your calendar because I want you back next year! - Janet T.

A big TWO THUMBS UP for the seminar, everyone that attended love the info and the time to interact. Your commitment to scripture was wonderful. - Jim S.

BRAVO and THANK YOU with capital letters! The comments I received from our parents all rated you at the highest level. Your presentation masterfully combined humor, storytelling, scripture, personal experiences and audience participation. Your word pictures will be forever in our minds and accessed when we need them the most. When can you come back and speak to us again? - Jim M.

THANK YOU SO MUCH much for presenting at our most recent staff luncheon. We received rave reviews both on the content of the seminar and your presentation style. You helped us develop a more open and warm atmosphere and you helped us strengthen our commitment to our mission. - Susan M.

I wanted to THANK YOU FOR THE WORKSHOP that you put on for our church concerning breaking dysfunctional beliefs. I thought that the material was superior in both content and presentation. Your insights and techniques were beneficial, motivating, and very practical. I especially appreciated your professional yet humorous style of presentation and the use of many scriptural references. I hope that we can work together again in the future. - Robert J.

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.
I Corinthians 2:6

 

It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak
II Corinthians 4:13

 

On the contrary, we speak as men approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel. We are not trying to please men but God, who tests our hearts.
I Thessilonians 2:4

 

Jonathan, David's uncle, was a counselor, a man of insight and a scribe.
I Chronicles 27:32

 

Ahithophel was the king's (David's) counselor.
I Chronicles 27:33

 

"To God belong wisdom and power; counsel and understanding are his.
Job 12:13

 

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever - the Spirit of truth.
John 14:16-17

Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked or stand in the way of sinners or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on his law he meditates day and night. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers.
Psalms 1:1-3
