Speaking Topics

One of Brenna's greatest joys is encouraging others to make every minute count, whatever season they are in. Chris and Brenna lead couples retreats on enriching marriages, and family finances. Brenna's most popular speaking topics, all based on biblical principles, include:

NEW TOPIC! Coach Mom “It’s a Dream to Have a Team” Checklist
Move your family into a unified, all-star team by doing three things:
1. Instill value – make sure each team member knows they are a top-draft pick
2. Allow choices – create buy-in by team members by allowing appropriate choices
3. Set boundaries – give your team member the security of knowing what is expected
45-minute session or a 3-session retreat.

NEW TOPIC! Don’t Drop the Baton
When God is factored in, the day-to-day ordinary things in life become extraordinary…and a legacy begins. God’s declaration (“I love you!) results in no hesitation (“yes!”) on our part…then His rich cultivation brings the kind of fruit that changes a nation. Learn practical ways to pass on a faith legacy to the next generation. 40-minute format or 3-session retreat format.

NEW TOPIC! Dare to Declutter
Steps to peace by ridding the clutter from your schedule, home, heart & mind. Addresses seasons of life, letting go of emotional baggage, and having a proactive plan for spiritual growth. 30-45 minute format.

NEW TOPIC! Invest Your Best
An inspirational message for teachers. Gives examples of three great teachers who invested their best…and received a return beyond anything they could have imagined. 30-40 minute format.

NEW TOPIC! Let's Play Hide and Seek
If the Bible was banned today in America, how much would you be able to retrieve from memory? The Word is one of the only things that will last forever -- are you being intentional about knowing it? Brenna shares an organized and thoughtful plan for hiding God’s Word in your heart, along with a review system to keep it fresh – hide the Word and seek God in a deeper way. 30-45 minute format.

Ingredients for a Fruitful Family Smoothie
Do you thirst for a family life that is refreshing, rich, energy-giving, healthy, fresh, and satisfying...all at the same time? Brenna demonstrates how a blend of bananas, apples and mixed fruit concentrate relates to making the most of your family life. (Come taste, and see!) 45 minute session

The Journey: A Balancing Act

This session will look at practical ideas on bringing order to your home, saving time and money, adopting a "team" home management philosophy, storage systems, organizing photographs, meal planning and more. 30-45 minutes
