Christine Sweeney, Pastor

Barb came to speak to our women's small group last year as we began a study of her book, Enough Already. She was so relational, engaging and informative as she talked with us on the topic of beauty. After her talk, so many of the women in our group expressed how challenged they were by her content and how blessed they were by her transparency and humor. She is a top notch speaker who brings expertise, humor and humanity in her presentations.

We invited Barb back to speak at our full-day conference for emerging leaders because she is so dynamic! Not only was she well received by the audience she was easy to work with, personable and spent time listening to the other speakers and interacting with the attendees. Her high energy and enthusiasm were amazing. You won’t be disappointed when hiring Barb for your next event.

I highly recommend Barb as a keynote speaker for any event! Leading our retreat as our amazing speaker was beyond our expectations. She is fibrant, honest, detailed and an extreme Jesus lover and it shows with her passion as she spoke truth into us all. We grew immensly through her teaching. Her heart is tender and her love for others shows. We could not be more thankful for this time spent with her.

Barb is professional and timely and her content is on point. She recorded a virtual presentation with us and her engagement on the screen was dynamic. Each audience member could feel she was speaking directly with them.

Michelle Raby, Women's Special Events Coordinator

Our entire Women's Ministry team thoroughly enjoyed working with Barb. She was prompt in her response during our planning process. This made planning logistics easy for our team and the staff that supports our ministry during large events. She communicated effectively and was easy to work with. She tailored her message to our women and our theme for the event. She is an engaging and entertaining speaker. Her love for God's Word and ability to teach it inspired our women to seek out more opportunities for Bible Study in our ministry.

Paula Lang, Women's Ministry Promotion Coordinator

Barb's message about God's view of His children's beauty deeply touched all who attended our women's conference by revealing another level of Gods love. The level I'm speaking of is the intense level which enables all who listen to think differently about old habits, negative narratives and unwelcome comments from people regarding a woman's appearance. She's the real deal! We can hardly wait to work with Barb again. Barb provides custom-fit inspirational messages of God's love that deeply touch women. Not only is Barb gifted with words but she also provides invaluable resources for event planning, recommendations on graphic print media, promotional video, marketing and presenting our Women's Ministry event. It is so easy to plan an event with Barbs wisdom and knowledge.

In a heartbeat, our conference team would recommend partnering with Barb Roose for future events. Barb spent time talking to us not only about her specific role, but learning more about the vision and heart of the conference. This translated into her meeting and exceeding all deadlines and expectations our team had for her role within the conference. Thanks,

Barb lead our "Courageous Women" conference and was an absolute delight. She has the power to connect with all women and energize them. She told engaging stories that helped us all see how God works and is present in our every day lives. We learned how to let worry stop conquering our fears and how to lead our best lives!

Rebecca Perkins, Women's Ministry Leader

Barb spoke at our Women's Fall Kick-Off Event for our small groups. She was engaging, humorous, and so authentic in her presence and message. God's Word was her central focus, and she was not afraid to challenge us and bring us out of our comfort zone. As a result, we have a lot of women involved in our fall small groups, doing the Joshua study written by Barb, "Winning the Worry Battle." May God continue to bless you, Barb, and use you for His glory and His honor!

Barb Roose was fantastic! Her passion for God, and her obedience to speaking His truth was powerful. She was great to work with before and after the event. She was confident in how she carries herself, but humble and personal in dealing with the lives of those she served. A few of our leaders have picked up her materials and have stayed in touch, as they have been spiritually impacted by the truth of God that Barb has shared. A servant of God, full of hope and truth.

Barb made the biggest impact of any speaker at our full day conference.

Her message was tailored perfectly for our audience and challenged them to make the most of the day.

We contracted with Reiso Resources for Barb to conduct a management and supervision session on communication and she knocked it out of the park with her "Five Tools for a High Five Leader!" By far one of the best educational sessions our team has ever participated in. Barb was engaging, dynamic and very personable and made you feel very comfortable to participate openly. The concepts she presented are being used every day by our team and we are definitely seeing a difference! We highly recommend Barb for your leadership teams.

From beginning to end, Barb was nothing short of amazing.
A baby ministry, we are still new to hosting speakers and Barb was full of grace. What took me most by surprise was her honesty about how she decides if she will do an event. Her desire to put Jesus first, to make sure it was God first, her second - I was blown away.
The day of our summer event, Barb showed up prepared, on time and was the perfect mix of personal and professional with our guests.
I was thankful for Barb for being respectful to the day's schedule.
Upon review of the surveys guests filled out, the response to her two part talk on Surrender and Self Discipleship were all very positive.

If you are considering Barb, be prepared to feel challenged to do better every time you interact with her. She was such a blessing to my women's ministry and the women who heard her. A genuine lady - walks the talks she gives!

Leslie Shalda, committee member

Barb was so much more than a guest speaker at our women's event last month! She has a genuine love for our women's committee and helped us with the planning process along the way. I can't express enough how giving of herself she is. In addition, the feedback we received from women who attended our event hands down included their love of Barb. Her love of Jesus and connecting women to Him through her topic (C. A. R. E. S.) , energy and enthusiasm is a blessing!

I was very pleased with our experience hosting Barb. She was well-prepared and flexible. She presented herself as a real woman with real issues and connected well with the ladies at our retreat. Her speaking topics coincided with our retreat theme and served to make everything feel cohesive. She even took her relatability up a notch when she surprised us by joining in on late night game time! She truly was a blessing to the ladies at our retreat!

Barb Roose was the speaker at our morning women's retreat at our church. Area churches were all invited. We had close to 80 women attend. Barb spoke with a spiritual depth that only comes from years of experience and gaining wisdom. She was well prepared, dynamic and addressed areas all women need to hear but seldom deal with - how to take care of ourselves: clothing, exercise, appetite, rest, and being grateful. All these areas have both physical and spiritual applications to help us be all God wants us to be! Women left encouraged, energized and refreshed. Women ask to have Barb back, and that's the highest compliment to a good speaker.

We had a women's event for 300 women in Logan, Ohio. Barb Roose was dynamic. She used to Word of God to bring women before the Throne. She captivated the audience and when she was finished, you knew you had heard what God wanted you to hear. I would recommend her to any audience.

Barb spoke at our HR Conference with both men & women in the audience on the topic of personal leadership. Barb instantly created a connection with our leaders with her credibility & authenticity. Since it was a workplace setting, she relayed Biblical principles, such as kindness, without making our attendees feel "churched." I received multiple, unsolicited feedback from the audience that they loved the content she presented, the conversations she provoked, and her delivery style. I would highly recommend Barb to speak in a professional setting.

Barb was a big hit at our women's retreat! Her tender heart and passion for Christ was evident throughout the weekend. She is a gifted speaker - she brought us to tears one minute and had us laughing the next! Her desire and willingness to minister to our women before and after the main sessions was a blessing as well.
