To youth, Grandma Moses gave this advice: “Keep in good company, always try to improve your mind and body in every way.

This boy's life was full of troubles and heartaches. Yet, despite the challenges, his family deeply loved each other and God.  Unfortunately, despite being taught all the right principles this boy, A...

And is there ONE key principle that would help us achieve success in ALL our endeavors--personal, home, AND business?! YES there is! Presented last year at the Connect 2023 conference, in this presentation I give you the secret to...

“All you’ve got to do is plant that seed in your mind, care for it, work steadily toward your goal, and it will become a reality. It not only will, there’s no way that it cannot.”~Earl Nightingale Jenny Butchart started small.

"Does everyone have a mission?  Yes, if they want one.  God will always use us if we want Him to."~Audrey Rindlisbacher If everyone has mission, then how do they set about discovering it?  What does life mission really look like?
