Christie “speaks” reality with humor and honesty while pouring into her audiences the how-to’s of turning positive corners in their lives and personal relationships…..all centered in Jesus Christ as the gracious giver of wisdom, truth, and change.
The Lord has walked (and even run) through some very challenging times with Christie, and each lesson has drawn her nearer to His heart and purposes. She was called to speak 15 years ago, and she said, “Okay, Lord …as long as you give me something of worth to say to people in this broken world.” God has been faithful. He continues to give her truths from the Word and life for each group to which she speaks! As a conservative, evangelical Christian of 45 years, Christie brings the love of the Lord to her audiences in a gentle and profound way centered on the Word! She’s walks what she talks., and has a passion for her sisters and brothers in the Lord.
