As a full time youth minister with over 40 kids to tend to, I know more than most the importance of putting youth in front of energetic, engaging, and captivating speakers. Charlie Conder 100% fits the bill. Charlie's down to earth and relatable personality breaks down barriers in teenage hearts, and allows her to connect with youth and young adults on a level that I rarely see at retreats. She spoke at our Lake Junaluska Summer Youth Retreat and my kids not only fell in love with her, but took the message she delivered to heart and we are still seeing the lasting results today! Her intelligence and expertise come through in her talks in ways that keep youth attentive and self analyzing. Off the stage, Charlie is approachable and helpful in so many ways, especially when it comes to kids that have had breakthroughs during her lessons. If you are looking for someone to speak at any event, large or small, who will truly have an impact with you youth and bring them closer to Christ, Charlie is your girl.
