Keynote topics
- A Vessel of Honor
God has no method to reveal His love to a hurting, dying world than
through us. This message (II Cor. 4:7) encourages people to have confidence
in their vessels in order to share the amazing treasure--which is: Christ in
you, the hope of glory.
- Between the Devil & the Deep Red Sea
Based on the life of Moses and the Exodus, this message helps audiences
understand that when they are at their ultimate extremities and in an impossible situation, that is when God can work a miracle.
- A River Runs Under It
Suffering or pain in some form is an integral part of everyone's life.
This message teaches that joy is not fabricated, but is accessed through our
pain. Underneath all pain, there can be a river of "joy in the Lord" despite
circumstances.
- You've Got Dad's Hands
This mess- age (John 14) helps listeners see that although the world
cannot see the Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit, His spirit can be seen
in our lives. The life of the spirit is not what is seen, but what is felt
through our spirits.
- Lifeboats or Luxury Liners?
The church in America is so blessed that it's difficult for us to
realize that people are floundering and dying all around us. In 2003 Kathy
witnessed a spectacular rescue at sea. In this message Kathy blends her
knowledge of the scriptures with her unique storytelling style, and augments
them with graphic photos of this incident. This message is a stirring
challenge to the church to get out of our "luxury liner" churches with all
the opulence and beauty, get into the lifeboats, and "rescue the perishing."
- The Glory Hole
Based on Psalms 92, this message focuses on the need for God's continued
"anointing" on our lives. Yesterday's blessings were for then, but He has
glory and blessing available to us now. This message is a great source of
encouragement and blessing to audiences. From "glory to glory" He's changing
me!
- Dealing With Stress In an Uptight World
This message addresses the stresses and pressures that confront us daily
and gives us clear scriptural answers for them. It reveals the cycle of
despair and the pattern of discouragement that we can fall prey to when we
are not well-rested both physically and in the Lord. (It is one of Kathy's
most requested messages).
- So! This Is What I Get for Being Loyal!
From the parable of the prodigal son, this message focuses on the older
brother. Many Christians today are doing many right things for a lot of the
wrong reasons. This message reminds us that when our hearts aren't pure, we
can become victims of bitterness, resentment, and a judgmental attitude.
It's, then, impossible for us to "Come to the Party."
- Heaven? I'm Going There!
What's this life all about anyway? We know that there is a better place,
but life sidetracks us, and we soon forget about God's promise of heaven.
This "scripture-packed" message about heaven will bless, challenge, and
inspire the hearer to keep focused on our ultimate goal--heaven--the joy of
being with Jesus and the thrill of taking others with us.
- Stuck in Winnemucca
And other topics are available to fit your theme as requested.
