Today we have the opportunity to hear from Ken Leamer, Senior Account Executive for Cincom Systems, Inc. and a friend of Keynote, about his connection with our ministry through the years. The video below is an excerpt from the 2009 Keynote Vision Dinner. Ken is interviewed by Rasool Berry of The Impact Movement, who served as emcee for the event.

May you be inspired and encouraged by Ken’s words!

Here are a few ways to “get involved” as Ken mentioned:

  • Join us for one of our Golf Challenges (May 10: California; May 24: Indiana)
  • Volunteer in a “behind the scenes role”
  • Make a donation to help expand Keynote’s ministry and influence around the world!

Do you feel the weight of how often you need to communicate effectively? Have you ever received proven, individualized training on how to be more successful?

For over 25 years, Keynote has been training our staff in clear, effective communication. For well over a decade, we’ve been expanding our comm training beyond our staff to include Summer Project students and internationals seeking to have an influence in their own cultures. In recent years, we’ve put even more emphasis on the art of communication, offering training for emcees, speakers and others.

Everyone can benefit from input and training in communication whether you’re a stay at home mom, a public speaker or someone who’s passionate about sharing Christ! To that end, Keynote is introducing the Comm Lab!  Beginning Monday evening, April 5 and continuing through the evening of Thursday, April 8, Comm Lab will include teaching by renowned communications experts like Tim Muehlhoff, Tim Downs and others, a variety of seminars, and one-on-one coaching from experienced speakers.

Seminars will cover communication philosophy, practical communication skills, drills and analyzing spiritual communication climates. All of the presenters, including Tim Muehlhoff and Tim Downs, serve on the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ. Other presenters include Bob Fuhs, Millie Welsh, Michael Anderson, Hank Marshman, Dan Flynn, who will join Tim and Tim to teach and coach you during this time.

Comm Lab will be held (April 5-8) at the Keynote Headquarters in Westfield, IN.  The cost for this three and a half day event is $215. This includes all your lunches, light continental breakfast each morning, a dinner and conference cost. Although the actual cost is $215, we have scholarship funds for the first 50 people who sign up. An early bird discount of $20 is also available for those who register before to March 7. Register NOW for a total savings of $70!!

“I had it in my hand…”

February 19, 2010

Indiana Jones was a treasure hunter. But his desire to seek precious treasure was motivated by his love for archaeology and the preservation of “rare antiquities.” He wasn’t seeking treasure in order to own it. Belloq, on the other hand, sought the treasure for what it could bring him – power, wealth, prestige.
Even so, Dr. [...]
