Kim spoke at our ladies' luncheon. She was so down-to-earth and funny. We liked her from the moment we met her. Her theme was "Bloom Where You are Planted". Kim has a great sense of humor and an openness about her life experiences that brought out laughter sometimes and then other times pulled on our heart strings. She shared the Biblical accounts of Esther and Joseph to inspire and motivate us to "bloom where God has planted us". All the ladies really enjoyed her talk. It was one in which we all could relate. I would personally recommend Kim to speak at your ladies' function. She was awesome!

Kim was a tremendous speaker. She provided two talks for our Mothers of Preschoolers winter retreat. She tied scripture together with personal experiences beautifully. She spoke from her heart and incorporated a multitude of emotions in her talks. She is relational, approachable, kind, and humorous! We were so blessed to have her speak to our group. She clearly puts God first and she allows God to work through her! We would recommend her 100% and we would absolutely have her come speak again!

Kim is truly a woman seeking the Lord. She has a way of being so down to earth and just being almost a mother figure to many people I know. The way she writes and speaks about the Lord is the way she lives her life. I have had the opportunity to write for Kim as well and just thoroughly enjoyed working with her. She helped me edit the article and it was a success! I am thankful for what she does and really am thankful for her writing and speaking it is just so real!

She's not afraid to share the areas of growth that God is taking her on and what she is learning from that. I would definitely invite her to speak at our women's retreat again, she was very well received.

Kim left a lasting impression! She is a gifted speaker who authentically and passionately connected with our audience from the beginning to the end of her presentation. She delivered a message relevant to our organization and obviously did her homework. Not only did Kim motivate and inspire the group but she propelled their generosity, helping my organization raise the most funds in the history of our annual event. When people who attended are still talking about the presentation the next day, you know you did something right!

Do you want your audience to get connected to your subject, fellow attendees, their faith and family? Kim Chaffin has the unique ability to share God's love in a realistic and loving way. The way she tells a story everyone's on the edge of of their seats, no one heads to the restrooms or sleeps! She is sensitive, honest and oh so real. Oh I can't forget to mention her willingness to laugh and get silly at just the appropriate times. Well worth you checking her out!

I have had the privilege of hearing Kim speak on many occasions. The thing that always strikes me is how God speaks to her through everyday experiences or even items. She sees a lesson that God wants us to hear and is able to communicate it through analogies that are memorable, relevant and applicable. I always walk away feeling encouraged or challenged.

I saw Kim speak at a women's Christmas event. Her speech was about not pinteresting Jesus out of the Season. This was such a perfect speech for her audience as we had the opportunity to shop/sell at a craft fair leading up to the event! She did a wonderful job engaging the audience, using well humor and keeping the speech authentic. She demonstrated humility and shared instances in her own life where she learned to lean into God. She is very easy to relate to!

Kim Chaffin is one of the most generous and kindhearted people that my wife and I have the honor of "doing life" with. Whether writing articles or speaking at City Life Church or other Christian events, I very much appreciate Kim's disarming honesty, humility and humor. I love Kim's ability to connect with large audiences as well as with individuals by getting personal through the sharing of her own life experiences...the good, bad, and the ugly. Kim never hesitates, even for a moment, to come alongside broken people and lift them up and encourage them by connecting their life issues to the Word of God. Frequently you will see Kim laughing with someone and then she will be praying and sharing a tender Holy Spirit moment with someone else...tears included. The bottom line is that Kim is the real deal. A passionate and devoted follower of Jesus who genuinely loves all people. Please invite her to speak or write for your organization...she will be an incredible blessing to all!

Kim is a talented speaker with a gift for relating to her audience through her humor, honesty and engaging personality. She has an ability to not only share her faith, but to also do so in a way that meets people wherever they are on their life journey and walk with the Lord. Her passion and excitement for sharing this faith shines clearly in her speaking and writing, as well as in her day to day life. Furthermore, her ability to immediately connect and identify with those she meets makes her a memorable and valuable addition to any conference or event.

I have had the pleasure of listening to Kim speak many times. I attend City Life Church with her and it is always a blessing when she is scheduled to speak. Kim has the ability to take life situations that may be very challenging and add God and a twist of humor to help you feel like your issues are very normal. She seeks the Lord in all she does and is constantly reaching out and offering prayer. Kim is truly passionate about her writing and speaking engagements and it is very evident that she relies on God to guide her path.

Kim came to speak at our women's retreat in March. I was most impressed with her professional attitude to meet the needs of our group specifically. That was because she has the biggest heart guided by the Holy Spirit. Her energy was endless. Our group was very diverse, aged from 25 to 75, married and single, varied backgrounds, and has different walks with Jesus among each of us. Her talks were meaningful to us in many ways. I tend to be bored easily, so a speaker that is only one dimension looses me fast. With Kim I was glued to her story. She was well prepared, but flexible to make changes to fit our needs. She really is a child of God.

Kim is a regular contributor at our home church in Spokane, WA. Regardless of whether she is sharing a single verse or an entire sermon she is always extremely well poised and well prepared. I absolutely love her down to earth humor and ability to share from a perspective of openness and honesty with where she is at. She knows she doesn't have it all figured out and can bring comfort to others who are still in process. Many Sundays you will see her being broken before God and then five minutes later ministering to others that need it. This is a beautiful thing to witness and it comes through in her speaking by connecting with the audience in an authentic manner. Anytime you hear her speak you will come away encouraged and refreshed. I highly recommend Kim for your next event.

Kim spoke for our church March 4-6, 2016. “Diet of Hope” was our theme. Kim spoke on the need for a relationship with the Lord in fellowship, prayer and the word. We loved Kim’s enthusiasm and “down to earth” personality. She wanted to know every ladies name and she did before she left. We had 32 ladies present. I was mostly impressed with Kim’s caring attitude, self- discipline and her need for the Lord herself. Her talks were relevant, touching and Holy Spirit led. It was evident that Kim listened to the Holy Spirit as she spoke. Every lady in our group said to bring her back. She went above and beyond, meeting all our needs.

Kim is an amazing speaker. One of her best speaking qualities is that she has a way of making material simple to understand. She has a way with words that makes her really relatable when she is speaking. Lastly, she is amazing at being in tune with what the Holy Spirit is telling her and is able to flex her talks minutes before she speaks.
