ABOUT CHRISTIE

Christie is the director of Northwest Christian Speakers Bureau and has been speaking to groups for over 20 years through her ministry Fresh Look Thinking. Recently she has designed a new type of retreat which encourages women to build great fellowship and connections with other ladies in their church. Her practical presentations start with God’s word and connect each woman to life-changing truths taught with lots of humor and real-life stories of walking with the Lord.

Christie is known for being a woman of the Word who knows how to combine humor and truth to point women to Jesus in a practical and personal way. She has been speaking to groups for over 20 years throughout the United States and Canada.

Her specialties include: developing healthy relationships with love and truth, building strong communication,  and being very intentional about growing and staying spiritually healthy by holding on to Jesus in this unpredictable and demanding world.

In addition to her own speaking ministry, she is the speaking trainer as well as being co-facilitator for the New Hope for Marriage weekend retreat.  

Christie loves life, even though it has taken her down some rocky roads. She helps women to look at the potential for life's "hiccups" (or even the Tsunamis) as they learn to apply principles from God's word in their everyday lives, even in the midst of seemingly unmanageable tough times.

As a master story teller, she makes Biblical characters come to life. Audiences love her creative illustrations, and you never know what surprises might come out of her prop treasure chest. In her 52 years of walking with the Lord, Christie has been involved in ministry at two large evangelical churches and served as the women's coordinator for a county-wide "Power to Change" movement where hundreds came to know the Lord.

Currently, in addition to speaking and writing, she coordinates Northwest Christian Speakers Bureau and trains speakers to take their speaking ministries to a deeper level. She also teaches English and  drama  to home schooled students where her students say she "makes learning a joy."

She and her husband of over 41 years have raised two amazing daughters and loves being a grandmother!
