I get it. I understand the path forward is not always easy. There have been times when I have felt alone, ready for more, and overwhelmed by the thought of leaving my comfort zone to step into my true potential.

I want the same for you. Through my proven and successful service solutions, I can help you maximize your impact, increase your effectiveness, and achieve your goals.

    Dr. Bridges served in our feature film as the on-set Chaplain. Honestly, it was the first time I ever had a Chaplain work on the set of our movies, however, after our experience with Dr. Bridges, it will certainly not be our last time. Her powerful morning messages, positive energy, and bright smile infused our entire set every day with what we needed to make it through a long day.

    I am very grateful for the presentation Dr. Cheryl did for our treasurers on the topic of "Turning Numbers into Relationships." It was well received. Our treasury team is very motivated and energized to focus and care for their constituent groups in a way far more than they have been doing before. You did a perfect presentation.

    I went to the King and Country concert. I bought two tickets to invite my husband. Well he didn’t go because he didn’t want to know anything about God. I went to the WGTS booth to pray. There a pastor prayed for me. I didn’t ask her name, she had long black hair. I’ve been considering leaving my husband because his lack of love for God is hard for me. Now he agreed to go to the Hillsong concert in June. Prayer works! The pastor who prayed for me gave me a hug. It was the warmest hug I had in months or years. God’s bless her hard.
