He combines his deep faith, his experience as a dad, his humility, and his knowledge of contemporary youth culture in a package that is extremely helpful and engaging." "With youth culture changing so rapidly, we were delighted to have Paul help prepare our summer camp staff to effectively minister to youth. Paul is a gifted communicator. His knowledge of and passion for God's truth, combined with his knowledge of and passion for youth, makes him extremely relevant. If you are seeking to impact today's youth in a deeper way, you'll find Paul's seminar challenging, inspiring and practical. We wouldn't hesitate to book him again." "We live in a world of confusion, choice and pressure. Parents and youth workers must plot a route in this ever-changing world if we are to nurture healthy children. Thank goodness for someone like Paul who daily awakens us to this new reality. He helps us to see where we are in order to help us get our kids where they need to go." "My husband and I just wanted to say thank you for coming out and giving us some of your views on teenagers. Our older daughter is 21, our son is 18 and our youngest daughter is 14. It's a very challenging time in which to raise them because we don't have all the answers. We were certainly encouraged by your views. Your website gives us another avenue of information and some insights." “I want to say thank you for today. I was really affected by what you talked about. I think that understanding the world is so vital in living a life of Christianity. It’s really fascinating to me - trying to understand it all. So, thank you for your time and for everything you’ve shared. I really appreciated it and enjoyed listening to you and got a lot from it.” "I think Paul shares enlightening information concerning the world our children live in. The information and resources he has access to helped us, as parents, stay in touch with our kids." “It is often difficult as a youth teacher to get parents to understand that their child does not live in a plastic bubble and that they are not perfect angels! You helped open many eyes and hearts.” "Amazing! This seminar taught me more about today's youth in an hour than I learned in several years of teaching." "Very easy to listen to, eye-opening statistics and leaves you wanting to hear more. There's something each parent, educator or relative can take away from this information on our youth today." “Paul provides not only a grasp of the issues adolescents are facing but also an understanding of the needs and challenges facing parents of teenagers. The parents at our church greatly appreciated Paul's insights and his warm presentation style.” “We were so impressed with Paul’s presentation! Paul spoke with expertise and compassion, sharing his work with youth in a multi-media presentation that humbled us into a need for positive action. Not only has Paul done his research in terms of recent statistics, but he also meets teens where they are in their media drenched lives.” “I found your presentation to be most informative and I might add that I went home and rented the video Thirteen as you recommended… Thanks again for making the discovery of our youth your passion!” |
