Speaking PresentationsDiscover Real Joy
This is an exciting look at the blessings that come from a life lived in the “greater joy” that God promises in Psalm 4:7. In this presentation Becky defines what real sovereign joy is, explains how to cultivate it, and identifies the four sabotaging joy-killers. She teaches through both Scripture and her personal experience how to see the sovereign hand of God in events in our lives to bring us JOY! Why Didn't Somebody Tell Me? Lessons Learned from the Rear-View Mirror
When Becky was raising her 3 children, she didn’t have the advantage of mentors, books, or parenting classes, and had to do her best by trial and error. Becky teaches a power-packed presentation in Why Didn’t Somebody Tell Me? Lessons Learned from the Rear-View Mirror giving invaluable do’s and don’ts on raising children, laughing at life, and exploring your relationship with God. In addition, she addresses the very current problem of media habits in both children and parents, and what she has observed about parenting from being a high-school teacher for 35 years. At every session, Becky gives each participant a fill-in handout, 3 pages of terrific articles, and discussion questions to be used in follow-up small groups. Great for Parent In-Services, Women’s Ministries, Moms of All Seasons, etc. Our Bratas in Life Brata is a Creole word for unmerited surprise gift or extra bonus. Little did Becky realize when she was growing up in the little Caribbean country of Belize how God would use that word to show His grace when her world came crashing down around her 20 years later. This is her very touching and humorous account of life as a missionary kid (MK), her near loss of husband and child, and her realization that Jesus Christ is our all-sufficiency and everything else He gives us are bratas. Laughter, God's Best Medicine A very funny look at life's most comical moments, dotted with stories from the lives of the well known, as well as Becky's own personal situations. She has come to believe that God wants us to keep everything in perspective—including the ability to laugh at one self—and that "the merry heart does good, like a medicine". Guilt-Free, Joyful Parenting! ... and Grandparenting How do you whittle down all the information from books, media, and experts to know what you need to be the most effective and successful parent, or grandparent, you can be? Becky is a mother of four and a grandmother to three whose 35 years of public school teaching and mentoring of young people has given her clear insights into what are the most critical practices for successful parenting. You can become an unforgettably powerful influence in your child or grandchild’s life by what you model. She gives advice on how to manage rebellion, friends, bedtimes, conversation, electronics, special needs, and spiritual growth, and how to eliminate the 4 joy killers ... fear, anger, stress and guilt ... that tend to accompany parenting. She presents very practical, easy-to-implement tools on how to build a home of love and laughter! Pregnancy Resource Center (PRC) Fundraisers and Pro-Life EventsI Am Listening, Lord
After 7 years of infertility, and a session of yelling at God that she would never darken the door of a church again on Mother's Day, Becky received the phone call of a lifetime. There was an emergency situation with a mother about to give birth and she wanted to find a good home for her baby. Was Becky interested? Becky’s story of adopting babies twice, having a bonus one from scratch, and adopting another at age 18 is a true testament to God’s goodness and grace. She also speaks from the broken heart of an educator who saw the pain brought on by teenagers making life-altering decisions. Becky shares from a deep well of personal experience and professional knowledge, with some very practical take-home tips for every person believing in the sanctity of life. THE BEULAH COMEDY SHOW!
