Curious about what people say about us & our services?
“Rick dazzled our congregation with great insights, engaging stories, and practical, Biblical tools for building strong marriages and families. His work with our men was especially compelling. I highly recommend him to you.”
Tim WrightPastor, Community of Grace Lutheran Church 
“Rick Johnson has a heart for men to live as God created them to live, to impact and influence people and change generations for the name of Jesus. He has a humble, loving, and very challenging message that will encourage, motivate, and ignite men to love and lead others with grace and truth. If you want a speaker who lives what he writes and teaches, then invite Rick. His own story combined with many more stories will lead you to brokenness and action. Because of his leading, our men will never be the same.”
Dr. Monte StarkesPastor of Discipleship and Global Outreach, Perimeter Church
“Rick Johnson connects with men at a level that allows them to both see the truth and apply it to their lives. His stories are real and resonate with the individuals who hear them. Our men were totally blessed. What Rick spoke about will cause them to live their lives differently. Rick Johnson has a unique way of speaking Scriptural truths in words that every man on the street can understand and then desire to be more like Christ as he lives out his faith in the real world. I would highly encourage any group of men to invite Rick Johnson to be part of any gathering you are planning where your goal is changed lives.”
Chuck GriffinIowa District Nazarene Men’s Ministry Director
“Rick Johnson is the full package when it comes to marriage and family ministry! He is a great speaker, his books are awesome, and he’s a super likable guy. The thing I appreciate most about Rick is that even though he is used to speaking to thousands of people at large conferences, he was willing and excited to help our church start an annual marriage conference with only forty couples. Rick Johnson is the big name you’re looking for, even if you’re starting small! I highly recommend Rick Johnson to you.”
Ben SobelsSenior pastor, Cypress Church Monterey, CA
“I cannot tell you how much I heard about what a fantastic addition you were to the conference. Many women said you, by far, were the highlight for them. Be encouraged in how God is using you. I believe the message you bring to women is WILD, because the world we live in does not encourage us to build up anyone but ourselves. And, women are tearing men, even sons, down on a regular basis. By the way, according to the evaluations, you by far were the favorite of the entire conference. Be encouraged! Thank you so much for what you brought to all of us. I hope that we can do ministry together again. And, next time, I would love to see your wife again! Please tell her, thank you, for allowing you to come to all of us in Livermore, and minister to us.”
Debbie AlsdorfDirector, Design 4 Living Women’s Conference Cornerstone Fellowship Church Livermore, CA
“La Casa de Cristo was blessed to hear the ministry of Rick Johnson. Rick helps couples learn to understand how God created men and women to be uniquely different and how to embrace those differences as a couple. He also helped women to see how men think, speak, and are wired differently than women. Thank you Rick, for celebrating and encouraging marriages and the differences between men and women.”
Jennine UlibarriDirector Women’s Ministry, La Casa de Cristo Lutheran Church, Phoenix, AZ
