What People Are Saying

  • COACHING

    Lyle knows youth ministry from the inside out. He still serves a congregation’s youth ministry. His advice is current and applicable because he is living it now.  He avoids “you should” type statements. I appreciate that. His suggestions have been effective. My youth ministry is more inclusive and folks are willing to go deeper.
    – Pastor Pam Kelly, Berea, Ohio

  • KEYNOTE SPEAKER

    “You could almost see the lightbulbs going off over people’s heads during Lyle’s keynote address. The Spirit of God burned a little brighter in us all thanks to his leadership.”
    – The Rev. Rachel Laughlin, Bridgeport, MI

  • YOUTH LEADERSHIP TRAINING

    “You make ministry fun, approachable, understandable and, most importantly doable.”
    – Emma (High School student)
