Success Stories

Elsa took us through a journey of healing some deep places of pain and brought us to a place of being able to love God, others, and ourselves in a deeper and fuller way. She touched our souls in a way that made an eternal difference.

Let me put it this way — it's not a pretty sight to see that many grown men crying. If you think that God is not at work in the lives of his people, or that there's something He can't handle, or that He doesn't care, you need to hear Elsa speak.

Elsa is one of our 'must-have' speakers at the annual, national leadership conference. Elsa always gets outstanding reviews on her evaluations because her messages are heartfelt, compassionate and they touch people where they are.
