We had the privilege of having Todd as our Camp Pastor, as he was able to speak to our students in a relevant, Biblical, and practical way. Our students were able to come away from their week of camp having been challenged to live their lives more like Christ. Todd did an amazing job of investing in our students, which impacted them greatly. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a powerful and Bible-based speaker. Your students will benefit from his speaking, teaching, and his lifestyle of ministry.

Todd and I have known each other for only a short time, but I knew from our very first conversation that this was somebody that God had his hand on. I also knew that this was somebody our students needed to hear from. We have a wide variety of students represented in our ministry, from those that have grown up in church to those who are still "checking things out". Teaching and reaching each week is a real challenge as we try to meet each student where they are. When Todd came in, I had no idea how the kids would receive him but knew they needed to hear what he had to say. Let me just say that I was blown away by Todd's presentation and our kids' response to him. God used Todd in a big way to challenge our kids to look at the importance of sexual purity in their lives, but did so in a way that was fresh and creative. Sharing from Scripture, as well as his own personal testimony, Todd communicated with passion and with honesty a message that our kids desperately needed. The students were engaged and actively listening to him the entire time he talked, (which is no small feat) and several weeks later I am still hearing positive feedback about Todd from both kids and adults. He made our kids think and caused them to look at where they are at and where they should be in the area of personal purity. I am thankful for Todd and his heart for students as well as his ability to effectively communicate with them.

Todd is no doubt the most captivating speaker I have ever had the privilege hearing speak. I have seen Todd speak to small groups and very large groups and every time the message has been powerful and genuinely personal. He has a tremendous ability to cause students not just to listen, but also to truly think about what he is communicating to them. One thing that stands out about Todd's gift is how God uses him to bring students to a point of definite decision without using emotion or guilt. Students will laugh, students will listen, students will be moved, students will connect with Todd's genuine spirit, and students will respond.

I have known Todd for about 10 years and feel privileged to call him my friend. God called me about 12 years ago to minister to children and teenagers in Dundee, Scotland, and I have taken groups over there on short-term missions ever since. On one such occasion, Todd accompanied us... Even though I had known Todd for quite awhile at the time, I was AMAZED at the way God used him to minister to those kids... Whether it was in song, or one-on-one witnessing, or in a pick-up game of soccer! And when he PREACHED one night... seldom have I sensed the presence of the Holy Spirit in the room as He was that night! Todd is truly blessed with the gift of evangelism, and the response that night will always be a precious memory to me as MANY people came to Jesus Christ.
