PRESENTATIONS FOR A CHRISTIAN AUDIENCE

I have been speaking to Christian groups for more than ten years. I've gone through training at Christian Leaders and Speakers Services (CLASS) and am currently represented by them as a Christian speaker. I can tailor one of the following presentations or create a new one to fit the theme of your event.


Some popular topics:

EMOTIONAL HEALING


Forgiving God

Have you ever wondered why God
allows bad things to happen? In
her testimony, Carla speaks
honestly about the spiritual battle
she faced after her son’s death and
how God brought her through it.
Her message will encourage anyone
who has ever asked “why?” She
has also written about this
experience in her book Forgiving
God.
For a general Christian audience. 45-60
minutes.


Fear or Faith?

Do you tend to be overwhelmed
with fear and worry? In this
presentation Carla shares how God
taught her through Scripture to stop
living in fear and start living by
faith. This message will help others
to “let go” and encourage them to
“let God.”
For a general Christian audience. 50-60
minutes


Don’t Waste Your Suffering

Do you believe that “all things
work together for good to them that
love God?” This passage from
Romans 8:28 is easy to believe,
until tragedy strikes YOUR life. In
this session, Carla will share how
God can take our suffering and
turn it into something beautiful.
This session will encourage others
to see how God works in times of
suffering.
For a general Christian audience. 45-60
minutes



BIBLE TEACHING

Pieces of the
Old Testament Puzzle

Does it seem that the Old
Testament is full of unrelated
stories? Carla will put the puzzle
pieces together by placing our
favorite Bible heros in their
chronological order as the history
of Israel unfolds. This session will
give you a better understanding of
the Old Testament as a whole.
For a general Christian audience. This
could either be done in one session or
expanded for a retreat or conference.
From 60-90 minutes to 4 hours.


No Easter Eggs in the
Garden of Gethsemane

With stores full of bunnies and
eggs, the real meaning of Easter is
sometimes forgotten. Carla will
take us through the last week in
the life of Jesus set against the
backdrop of the Feast of the
Passover. In this session, Carla
can describe how the traditional
sites look today in Israel. Her
presentation will remind you again
why Easter is a day of celebration.
For a general Christian audience. This
could either be done in one session or
expanded for a retreat or conference.
45-60 minutes up to 4 hours.


Far, Far Away in a Manger

In the middle of the rush of the
Christmas season, leave your “to do
list” at home as we go back two
thousand years and follow a poor
Jewish man and his young bride as
they travel toward Bethlehem.
This session will put you in the
true Christmas Spirit.
For a general Christian audience. 45-
60 minutes


Extreme Makeover

Have you ever wished you were
somehow different? Well now is
your chance, because God is in the
extreme makeover business! Carla
traces the changes God made in the
lives of Bible characters and shares
how you too can be made over.
Especially appropriate for a Christian
women’s session. 45-60 minutes.


Supermons of the Bible

Sometimes we get so busy being
mothers that we forget our children
are a gift from God. This session
looks at the lives of Godly mothers
found in the Bible and what we
can learn from them.
A Christian women’s session or
mother/daughter banquet. 45-60
minutes


Martha’s Works, Mary’s Perks

Martha works and worries, while
Mary sits and soaks up the
teaching of Jesus. This look at the
lives of two very different women
can teach us a lot about what is
important in our lives.
Especially appropriate for a Christian
women’s session. 45-60 minutes.
