Submitted by Crossroads Church on Monday, Nov 06, 2023

Michelle Pethel, Director Of Operations

We have brought in countless numbers of speakers to our organizations for various reasons and none received such praise as Dr. Dalton-Smith. Generally, someone has something negative to say with our church being so large, but we didn't receive one negative comment. In fact, we have already heard of multiple small groups using her material as the focus. The message was easy to listen to, not over-complicated and left a lasting impression on all our guests. She herself was one of very low maintenance and easy to get hold of when changes needed to be made. Her staff cared about the event and actively reached out asking how they could pray for us both before and after the event. If you are considering her for your event we highly recommend her.

Jacqueline W Paddio, Elder/Equipping Pastor

Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith is a top-notch professional who brings great value, positive work ethics and outcomes as a communicator. Just recently our church offered a Health and Wellness Seminar to educate and encourage a healthy lifestyle. All of the participants provided raving reviews for Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith. Her newly released book on Sacred Rest enlightened and encouraged many to re-evaluate their perspective of rest. That said, her ability to serve creates an invigorating experience for all to benefit. I am extremely impressed with her commitment and desire to provide quality in everything she does.

CJ Andrews Lead Pastor

Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith is the real deal. The custom at our church has been to have people in to minister that we were in relationship with, however after reading her book I felt as though she would be so very relational. Indeed she is just that. She connected deeply with our ladies. Her teaching on rest is a game changer and a liberating teaching. She communicates so beautifully and is so down to earth. She follows Holy Spirit’s leading. I highly recommend having her in for any event. Her message is for this hour.

Karla Cazer MS, RN, CNS-BC, Faith Community Nurse Manager

We recently had Dr. Saundra present a day-long conference for faith community nurses, chaplains, social workers, counselors, physicians and Stephen Ministers. She was able to explore the wholistic definition of Brokenness in patients/clients and provide ways to authentically minister to them where they are in their life's journey. She is personable, genuine, Christ-like and a breath of fresh air. Our audience loved the continuing education and new ways to care for the whole person, as well as identify when they as caregivers may be broken. We also had Dr. Saundra provide a morning workshop for women of all ages, entitled, "A Well Woman: Finding your GRACE Place.". The women worked through their own struggles with being a well woman and what God's wants for us as busy women in today's world. The women loved the event and stayed around for fellowship, sharing and praying together. Thank you Dr. Saundra!!

Come Empty: Pour Out Life's Hurts and Receive God's Healing Love

When a water vessel is filled with dirt and stones, it cannot be used to quench a thirst. But, when this vessel is emptied, there is an opportunity to fill it until it overflows with fresh, cool, life-giving water. Water that quenches. Refreshes. Soothes. Our souls are the same: filled with fear, doubt, and disappointment. Running over with unanswered prayers and lingering questions. When we empty the mess of our lives in the presence of God, we're offered an invitation to come. An invitation that allows us to come empty - so that we can be filled until we overflow. Come Empty - Pour Out Life's...
