Faith Based Speaking Information
Here's an example of one of Dan's talks. Come back for more soon!
|
The bulk of the public speaking Dan has done has been for Christian Youth Gatherings, Retreats, Conferences, Camps and Leadership Events.
Using the power of storytelling and humor, Dan is able to "set the stage" to share the truth and life of the Gospel message. His ability to connect with young and old alike has been central to his success and keeps people inviting him back to events year after year. With an emphasis on God's grace and mercy, Dan brings a message of hope, forgiveness and undeserved love. Dan will work within the theme of your event and focus on the topic that you choose. He has spoken on: forgiveness, grace, mercy, leadership, the parables, idolatry, possessions, bullying, loving the unloved and reaching out with the love of Jesus. If you are interested in a speaker that will bring biblical truth and insight, as well as make a personal connection with those attending the event, contact Dan today! Dan has been the keynote speaker at: High School Youth Conventions, Middle School Youth Conventions, Parent's Night Events, Worship Services, City Wide Ecumenical Events, 5th Quarter, Men's Night, Synod Assemblies, First Call Conferences, Confirmation Events, Baccalaureates, Youth/Adult/Pastors Retreats, Concerts, Women's Conferences and Service Organizations. He has also been featured as a workshop leader at Lifest and Power of One. |
Why Dan?
Dan not only brings unique, energetic, humorous and customized talks to your event, his goal is to build relationships and encourage people in their faith in Jesus. He does this by spending time with the event participants: hanging out, eating meals, joining groups for devotions/Bible study as well as playing Jenga are just a few ways that Dan loves to connect with the people at each event. If you're looking for a "rock star" to speak to your group and then disappear to his hotel room until his next talk, then Dan is not your next speaker. If you're looking for someone who will share a Christ centered and engaging message and who loves to spend time with people, talking, listening and hanging out...give Dan a call today.
