Jerry's Talk "Keep Your Focus" was powerful and inspiring

Our credit recovery high school students needed to hear about Jerry's rough childhood, his drive to better himself, his pursuit and capture of the "American Dream," and his zest for life. He kept them interacting with him, asking him questions, and asking them to consider who their friends are ("hang out with knuckleheads, and your future will be knuckle-headed"), who their mentors are, and how to find their drive. Many kids approached him after his talk, and were very interested in his message. I could not have been more pleased with Mr. Ervin's poise, professionalism, love for teens, and for God.

Absolutely Amazing!

Jerry's heart shines through him. His gift to reach people with his story is amazing. He spoke to a group of young students and he touched them all along with the adults in the room. He gets to the heart of the subject and involves everyone in the room. I can't recommend him enough!

Jerry is an amazing guy and is a master in his profession.

This past season I approached Jerry Ervin about becoming part of our football staff in the role as a Leadership Coach. It might have been one of the best moves I have ever made in my 17 years as the head coach at Desert Vista. Jerry has tremendous skills in multiple areas. He took our Leadership Council to the next level. His vision, and the direction that he provided to our players was absolutely amazing. I truly believe that the leadership skills that Jerry provided our players this season made the difference between us being an average team, to making us one of the top teams in Arizona. Jerry is an amazing guy and is a master in his profession.
