INVITE MIKE TO SPEAK
Mike Van Pelt | Founder, Author, Speaker, Coach & Podcast Host
LET'S START THE TRUE MAN CONVERSATION
Empowering Christian Men to Lead, Build, and Grow Together
The world today challenges the essence of manhood. Culture often tries to redefine masculinity, leading many men to feel lost, aimless, or disconnected from their true identity. Mike Van Pelt is on a mission to restore biblical masculinity, helping men reclaim strength, purpose, and leadership in every aspect of life.
With years of experience mentoring and coaching men through faith-based transformation, Mike speaks directly to the heart of what it means to be a man of God in today's world. His talks aren’t about passive encouragement; they’re about equipping men to rise, take action, and fulfill their God-given roles with confidence and integrity.
KEYNOTE TOPIC: The POWER OF ASKING FOR HELP
Keynote Overview:
Most men are carrying weight and wear and tear from doing everything alone and in silence. Mike exposes the lies that keep men stuck and shows why asking for help is not a weakness; it's a strength and wisdom in action.
Through story, scripture, and hard-hitting truth, Mike gives men a model (Jesus Christ), a framework (S.H.I.F.T.), and practical steps to move from isolation to strength, from confusion to clarity, and from coasting to calling.
