Kathy has been walking with the Lord since her childhood. And her love for the Lord is one of the most notable qualities about her life. I have known her and her family as a faithful members of the congregation which I pastored for the last 2 years (My tenure was 2 years; she has served the congregation for more than 25 years). During the time I have known her, she has been a leader in the Christian Education ministry of our local Church. I have found her always willing to go the second mile, always ready with a creative idea to involve adults and children in learning, and always interested in linking truth to life in a relevant way. Kathy is a an energetic and gifted communicator, speaking enthusiastically from the heart about family worship disciplines. I believe that the impact of her message is a result of the fact that everything she shares has been worked out in her home and with her family. She and her husband have lived before their children what she speaks...
I heard Kathy Stockman speak at a Hearts At Home Conference in Lansing, Michigan. I attended her session on Family Christmas Traditions. I was very excited about the information she shared there. The true importance of Christmas was very evident in what she presented. It was clearly visible that she was sincere in telling her audience about her family's traditions in bringing the Gospel message to friends and other family members by the many creative ideas she told us about. I was pleased to invite Kathy to speak on this topic to the MOPS (Mother of Preschoolers) group of which I am the Mentor Mom,who is in charge of the programming. She did an excellent job in her presentation and related well with the Moms after she spoke.

Last Christmas I invited Kathy Stockman to take part not only in a Family Advent Celebration but to speak at our annual women's Christmas brunch. We have a church of 1000 attenders and it is important to us that our large events be well planned and professional in presentation. Kathy was a delight to work with. She was generous with her ideas and time, winsome in her actual presentation and wam and personal in all her interactions. The women's brunch was a seeker sensitive event, and Kathy was very well received by the women. Her blend of humor, personal style and rich family experience made her a great resource for a women's Christmas gathering. I enthusiastically recommend her as a speaker for churches or Christian women's events. She is a delight personally and professionally.
