Speaking/Seminars

**I’m available for in-person and virtual speaking events.  I have the ability to present both live as well as pre-recorded presentations.  Please get in touch with me to learn more.

Parenting has always been challenging, and it keeps getting harder.  We feel inadequate and overwhelmed.  Kids are growing up with easy access to pornography and recreational drugs.  Kids are becoming inseparable from their phones and video games. We wonder what kind of future awaits our kids and whether they will ever become adults.

Even though it’s easy to become discouraged, I know there is hope.  I have walked alongside parents and teens for over 30 years and know what works.  I know the key areas to focus on to help kids become great adults despite the threats in their life.

I want to get the word out that there are solutions!  

As you plan your next event, I know you are praying for an event that will give people hope and make an impact. My presentation will be a catalyst for change rather than fear, action rather than paralysis, and eternal rather than temporary changes.

I have the same goals as you do and look forward to partnering to make the biggest impact we can make in your community.

A Little Bit About Me

I am the primary presenter for Project Patch and have been speaking publicly for over 30 years.  I enjoy sharing in a number of formats, including sermons, keynotes, seminars, breakouts, and interviews.  I’ve been featured on local and national radio and television shows, including an appearance on the Dr. Phil Show.

I write articles and create podcasts for Today’s Family Experience as well as contribute to other programs that help teens and families.

I have been married to my wife, Kelly, since 1994, and we have two daughters and a son.  Our family has experienced the beauty and challenges of adoption and raising a special needs child as we continue to live near Portland, Oregon.  I enjoy triathlons, running, reading, fly fishing, and food.
