Speaking

I long to inspire hope, to offer a glimpse of what-might-be in the middle of what-is, mostly when that what-is includes pain or sorrow. Because honestly, who of us hasn’t experienced some level of pain?

 But what happens when we do? Where do we turn in those darkest moments or the day-to-day moments that feel unending? Is God really in the midst of it all? Does He care?

Through my personal experience and twenty years of ministry leadership, I have concluded —it is a resounding yes!

“Know, therefore, that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.”

Deuteronomy 7:9

But how? Maybe that’s why you’re here today. Perhaps you or someone in your area of influence is searching for an answer to that question —looking for hope, longing for truth, wanting to be heard in a way that brings growth.

If so, I can help. Whether leading small groups, teaching at conferences or special events, or preaching, my goal is to inspire hope and encourage faith rooted in the Bible that helps you live out its truths in your every day. 

If you’re looking for a speaker, I’d love to talk about how I might serve you and your group, event, or retreat. I can visit or speak live or over video. Let’s talk!


I enjoy working with groups to offer material that fits their need, but here are some of my favorite topics:

  • Hope in the face of loss
  • Grief and loss support
  • Developing grit and grace for a faith that lasts
  • Practical ways to trust God no matter what
