Why, God? Trusting When Answers Don't Come
Sooner or later, everyone voices the universal human question, "Why, God?"
I share from personal experience and three people in Scripture, including Jesus, who cried out, "Why, God?" Empower your people for a tenacious faith even when heaven is silent.
For Goodness Sake, Hold On!
Packed with fun Southern sayings, this message based on Galatians 6:9 inspires women to not allow weariness to distract or defeat them. Three "W's" will inspire and remind them their work is not in vain.
Fear Not! Defeat What's Devouring Your Impact
Women are often motivated by three covert fears: Being found out, left out, and thrown out. Five women in the Bible show how to defeat these fears sabotaging identity and impact. Women will replace self-limiting lies with God’s liberating truths!

Youth
Four Courageous Questions
A Powerful Graduation Message
Empower your students with four courageous questions for building lives of intentionality, self-awareness, personal responsibility, and eternal significance. Not flimsy or cutesy, these questions are a rugged set of tools that will serve them in making decisions about faith, career, relationships, and values.
Faith: Why Bother?
Perfect for Chapels & Apologetics Classes
Youth have legitimate questions about the Christian faith. Does it really make a difference? Is the Bible still relevant or is some (or all) of it outdated -- or worse, oppressive? How does a good God allow bad things to happen?
Put me on the hot seat and I'll answer students' questions with thoughtfulness, transparency, and respect. Designed for ages 12+, this opportunity for meaningful dialogue will challenge students to think deeply about their beliefs and where they lead.
