Get a Life!
Jesus said, "I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly." This talk explores how Jesus experienced his passion, death and resurrection precisely so he could send us the Holy Spirit--the Lord and Giver of Life. It answers the question, "If I already received the Holy Spirit at my baptism, why don't I experience the abundant life that Jesus talked about?" It's a great presentation for those on retreat or preparing for Confirmation.
Jesus!
So many teens perceive faith formation as just another subject like math or history. They see our faith as just a bunch of stuff they're forced to learn but that has no relevance to their life. In this presentation, David shows that our faith isn't about a bunch of old stories--it's about a relationship with a perfect Father who loves them more than they'll ever realize! David invites young people to reach out to Jesus and experience the best relationship they could ever imagine.
Put on the Full Armor of God.
Let's be honest... Most Catholic teens confuse the word "Confirmation" with the word "Graduation." As soon as they receive the Sacrament of Confirmation, they seem to disappear from Church, perhaps never to be seen again. David exhorts young people to cast aside the notion of “graduating from church” and encourages them to put on the Armor of God. It’s time to live as a disciple!

"My daughters and I attended your talk and I wanted to write to you to let you know what an AWESOME talk it was! WOW! I have heard other chastity speakers and you were 10 times better. I loved your use of visuals to get your message across. I also loved how you had the teens laughing. You did such a great job getting the message across while entertaining as well!"
