Karie's
Topics
Karie's
presentations can be customized in length to meet
your need and fit the theme of your event.
Godly
People...Doing Ungodly Things
Warfare is hardball but seduction is a
curveball. Let's see why Paul exhorts wholehearted,
committed Christians to beware of 'our minds' being
corrupted and seduced from pure devotion to Christ
(II Cor. 11:3) Karie shares her personal testimony
and encourages and equips women to live a life
worthy of His calling and the awareness of the
enemy's strategies.
Your
Teen, Your Legacy
As a mother of 3 teens, Karie will share candidly
the physical, emotional and spiritual consequences
of 'going to far' along with 'cutting edge'
information regarding sexual purity with her Parent
Pac for 'parents.' It's never too early to gain
credibility as you connect with your child by
speaking their love language!
Presented in 90 minutes!
The
4 A's: Abortion, Adoption, All-Your-Life and
Abstinence
Everyone has experienced one of the "A" words
sometime in their life. Now hear Karie share all 4
with transparency and a love for you and Him.
You'll leave encouraged knowing as far as the east
is from the west so far has He removed all our
transgressions. This is one of her most popular
messages making us ready as a witness for Him in a
world of 'choices'. Isn't God so good to use our
past for His glory?
Living
for the Moment
What is one thing worth waiting for? You are! Sex
is a gift saved for the one who is committed to
honor and cherish you. Oh, the thrills of risk,
like the role of the dice, represent the decision
made to have pre-marital sex. Know your limits -
how to set them, stand by them and respond with
confidence and conviction. Specifically designed
for youth groups, singles/college.
Know
What You Stand For
Love versus infatuation - how can you tell the
difference? The baggage of 'going too far' is taken
into the next relationship like an invisible
suitcase. Sex is a gift to be cherished and saved
for the security of marriage. How did David, a
psalmist and a King become a murderer and commit
adultery? Let's be challenged with our 'love'
towards the One who knows us best!
Specifically designed for youth groups,
singles/college.
The
Miracle of Life
Nothing outweighs the life of a child. Why is there
an abortion 1 every 20 seconds? Presented in a
gentle and loving atmosphere; hearts will be
changed through Karie's personal testimony of an
abortion at the age of 15 and the 'management
choice' at the age of 39. Her son, Daniel, weighing
1 lb.10oz impacted many lives during his 18 months
on earth. Let's appreciate life. Great
presentation for CPC's.
Fighting
Life's Giants
Another major area I love to share is the testing
of our faith. You see, my faith was 'tested' my
son's senior year at opening football season when
he broke his neck with a C1 C2 fracture (same as
Christopher Reeves). Hear Clif's amazing testimony
of finding true purpose for his life and a mother's
test of faith as she held onto His promises.
Presented with her son, Clif Weston, who published
an article (Christianity Today, Campus Life 2004)
and now is a Decathlon athlete for MCC in Mesa,
Arizona.
Purity
Ceremony
Karie presents this very memorable ceremony as a
special commitment to sexual purity shared between
a parent and his or her teenage son/daughter.
During the ceremony a parent will give a ring or
special piece of jewelry to his or her teenager to
wear as a symbol of promise to purity. What a
significant event for your church calendar
impacting the lives of students and families for
generations! Karie brings jewelry for guys, girls
and parents along with all the details in making
this evening remembered for a lifetime. This works
great when followed by a student
presentation.
