Meet Ben

Ben was created to communicate to people. He has definitely found his place in the body of Christ when he speaks to others. This connection to his audience comes from his obvious passion for them to know God’s love. Your teens will connect with Ben’s humor and be changed by the relevant truths he shares from God’s word. One youth pastor said, “Its not like Ben thinks outside the box. He just doesn’t know there is one.”

Ben has been traveling and sharing Christ’s message with teens around the country and world. He has been a sought after speaker at camps, conferences, retreats, colleges, and other church events. You will find that He not only wants to share a message but to be a vessel to allow that message to stick.

Ben’s passion for communicating goes beyond speaking. He has written for a syndicated Christian radio program called The Legal Alert, authors a relevant teen devotional blog called “don’t step on a tomato” and edits a practical Q&A newsletter for young ministry leaders called To Timothy.

Before he began his speaking ministry Ben served as the assistant pastor and director of youth ministries at Fellowship Baptist Church. He has also served in ministry relations for the Christian Law Association, been a part of the traveling evangelistic team Truth Alive and received a BA in evangelism. Currently Ben resides in Tampa Florida with his wife Makenzie.
