Tickling the Funny Bone,
Touching the Heart

And let us consider how we may spur one another
on toward love and good deeds.
Hebrews 10:24 (NIV)

"Let's live significantly!" Audiences are ignited to do just that when Sharon speaks, uniquely pairing her engaging sense of humor with her deep understanding of Biblical truth. When her pastor once asked her to explain her passion, she answered, "I want my life to count for God." That passion drives the teaching and encouragement Sharon brings to your event because not only does she want her life to count, she will inspire your group to live lives that make a difference as well. Her aim is always to see others mature in their walk with the Lord. Sharon says, "No pretending, no pretense. I am real and honest about myself and my faith; doing my best to follow Christ as a flawed yet forgiven soul, so others can see what life with Christ in our present day is really all about."

Sharon's talents as a gifted communicator are evident as she ministers to women's and teen's groups, singles' gatherings, corporate workshops, conferences, and special church services. Her prepared topics are appropriate for many functions and God uses her messages to challenge, convict, and encourage anyone who attends your program, seminar, retreat, breakfast, luncheon, advance, or even a mother/daughter tea. Sharon is also able to tailor a message to fit your program's theme and the specific needs of your organization.

Sharon is a graduate of Biola University, director of Sandy Cove Christian Communicators' Experience, Christian educator, conference speaker, composer, editor and published author. Sharon has taught high school for over 25 years and currently serves as Vice Principal at South Bay Lutheran High School in Inglewood, CA. She has been writing and speaking professionally since 1991 and makes her home in South Gate, CA with her husband James and Mark, their last son at home.

Sharon is also the CEO of two companies:

• Milk & Honey Life Retreats: Sponsoring spa retreats to build the whole woman - spirit, soul & body.
• AuthorizeMe: Writing seminars helping you get that book idea out of your head and down onto paper.

Speaking Topics

Living a Milk & Honey Life

This Christian journey is not what you dreamed it would be. When you signed up to have your sins forgiven and escape hell, you figured, "Now I've got it made." But life is not turning out as you expected. Well, you are not alone. This message or weekend retreat examines the parallels between your life and that of the Israelites as they journeyed from their bondage in Egypt to their full deliverance in the Promised Land. Come away from this experience with a better grasp of why you are where you are in life, and what you can do to be released into the milk and honey life God has for you.

Excuses, Excuses, Excuses

It's great wanting God to you use -- until He actually calls you into service. Then it's an entirely different matter. Find out how much like Moses you are as Sharon explores his (and your) excuses for avoiding the work God has clearly called you to do. Come away encouraged to finish what God has started in you. (45-60 minutes)

For those who want their lives to count for God, Sharon will inspire you to move from merely hearing God's voice to acting on what He's said so you can step up to significance.

Reality Check

It seems like you've been in church your whole life. Frankly, you're tired of the same old grind. You know the people, you know the sermon examples, and you know the songs. This Christian thing has become routine. Based upon Ephesians 4, this particular teaching is bound to wake you up and possibly step on your toes, yet provoke you to live your highest life for our Master on high. (1-4 hours)

What's in Your Hand?

You've heard the saying, "When God guides, He provides." This message points out the truth of that statement. Walk with Sharon through the stories of five Bible characters as she illuminates how God helped them use what they had to work for Him. Leave this session knowing that you too can use what God has given you. (45-60 minutes)
