Defining Moments - How Your Focus Defines Your Future |
|
|
|
|
|
DEFINING MOMENTS is designed to encourage women to take a reflective step back in their life so they can recognize the seemingly insignificant thought patterns and behaviors that lead to larger, life-defining moments. Each session begins with a visit from three of King David's most notable wives: Michal, Bathsheba and Abigail. Each had a defining moment in life that passed unnoticed even as it laid the foundation for an event that would leave them forever altered. As these three women tell their stories it will become clear that it was their focus and not their circumstances that determined the quality of their life and their future. |

| It has been my pure joy and blessing to know Janice Mayo Mathers for the past 25 years. She has spoken in over half of the United States, numerous cities in Canada and even to women’s groups in Germany. She has been invited back to many of the same groups time and again.
Her speaking is truly inspired by God. She makes even the smallest detail of life exciting and fun. When you hear her speak you will go from laughing to crying in a split second and feel yourself being drawn into the story so completely that in the end you can’t be sure if it was her experience or yours.
Janice is able hold her own with even the best inspirational speakers and I believe you will find that everyone who has ever heard her hungers for more.
I recommend Janice Mayo-Mathers without qualification to anyone who desires to have a great teacher, storyteller and author speak to their group. I look forward to seeing what doors God will open for Janice next because she is truly a master of her craft and an inspiration to us all.

| Janice is able to connect with whatever group she is speaking for. Whether as a luncheon, retreat, conference or keynote speaker, she is always well-prepared and shows that much research has gone into what she is sharing. Her dramas are wonderfully performed. How she is able to portray any biblical character in a way her audience relates to is remarkable. I would highly recommend her as a speaker |
