John's first three books on the journey towards peace, love and harmony.

Overview

John Kuypers speaks on his latest book, "The Peace Promise: Trusting God to Solve the Unsolvable."
He helps audiences understand how to apply Matthew 7:5 to the difficult situations in your work and personal life. What does it mean to first take the plank out of your eye? Audiences are awakened by the depth and impact of this one teaching. John's talks are personal, frankly real and counter-intuitively aligned with Biblical wisdom.

John is the author of four books. He has been speaking professionally for fifteen+ years. John has a leadership coaching and consulting practice, after having worked as vice-president of a medical device engineering company.

What to expect

Expect to see good interaction with your audience and a wide range of responses from light bulb moments to some perplexity. This teaching is counter-intuitive and is much more than mere entertainment or a reminder of the obvious.

Your audience will be invited to adopt Matthew 7:5 as a regular Christian practice - to "first get neutral" before responding to any sensitive issue with others.

The practicality of this teaching is unsurpassed for anyone who wants to change how others respond to them as a spouse, parent or leader. This is the real deal about important life situations. Audiences see how our normal responses aggravate things...UNTIL we remove the plank. Then we see Jesus' counter-intuitive way to get issues resolved by seeking peace first, results second.

About

My speaking topic is peace and leadership. My topic centers around a counter-intuitive scriptural verse - Matthew 7:5 - about removing the plank from your eye to see clearly what to do in difficult situations. Audiences find hope that difficult troubles with others can be resolved even in long-standing struggles.

I am a former vice-president of marketing & sales who blacked out on the family room floor at age 34 due to stress. It was a wake-up call that led me to begin a 20 year spiritual journey.

Along the way, I wrote 4 books about my journey. I share my lessons learned with others seeking to "the peace that surpasses all understanding" found in Jesus Christ. My experiences involve marriage, divorce, workplace leadership and family of origin issues.

I live in southern Ontario, Canada.
