It is hard to not to listen to you and then not want to go talk to someone about Jesus. Every time I’ve listened to you, I want to go share my faith with the next available person – Josh Maxwell, Epicentro Church.

You got my brain spinning with ideas. I can’t wait to return back to my church and start putting some of them into practice. I saw stuff I can fix right away. – A. Hayes, Sandford NC.
You’ve persuaded me that this ministry is much more important than I thought. – A skeptical hospitality chairperson.
It can be a challenge to find the right speaker for your event, particularly if you have never heard them speak before.
The success of your training event is ultimately dependent on the quality of the speaker.
This seems to be normal for the network circles I run in.
What I teach in my Evangelism Seminars
The main thrust is all about
- the sovereignty of God over the process of evangelism,
- How the Holy Spirit draws a person to faith
- the initiating work of the Holy Spirit in evangelism,
- and listening to the Holy Spirit.
By the end of the workshop or conference, many have said
“You have helped me move from fear of evangelism to a freedom to share my faith.” (See Testimonials)
My style is conversational evangelism, starting where my conversational partner is, rather than bringing them to a predetermined theological starting point.
My goal is to help another person along in their spiritual journey to discover God through Christ.
People have
- stereotyped ideas about evangelism,
- negative experiences with contact evangelism
- have had embarrassing experiences with evangelists, and
- in many cases feel afraid to share their faith for fear of messing it up or destroying a friendship.
Fear and nervousness is a subtle atmospheric subtext of the evangelism conferences I enter.
This seems to be normal for the network circles I run in.
Words that describe me:
Passionate
- Inspirational
- Practical
- Full of energy
- Full of ideas
- Knows your stuff.
- “This was immensely practical and you made evangelism doable for us.”
You want a training event where your participants can feel equipped. You want a training event where tools are shared, but most importantly, vision is cast, creativity is launch, and people have a refreshed enthusiasm that they can share their faith or improve their church hospitality practices.
If I speak at your daylong or weekend event, that is my desired outcome. Your participants will go away with new tools, new ideas, and a fresh passion to step out and do things to improve their ministry.
I am honored that you would consider engaging me to speak at your event.
