Do you believe? Christian Author and Speaker
Joy DeKok does. She tenderly captivates women readers & audiences with stories
of humor and candid Truth, firmly grounded in the belief that we have been given everything we need to
be − far more than we
could ever imagine for ourselves. God created
us. And we are very good in His eyes. Genesis 1:31 "God saw all that he had made, and it was very good."
"Joy is a delightful, warm, endearing Christian speaker with a heart for God and with stories that will draw you in and keep you captivated." |
Armed with the Word of God, Joy is able
to use enchanting illustrations to draw parallels between God's calling for us
and the situation that we may find ourselves in. She believes that He uses every
aspect of our lives to transform us into women who use their unique talents,
gifts, and experiences to impact their world. This Christian Author & Speaker believes God meant it when
He
said in Romans 8:37 (Amplified), "Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors
and gain a surpassing victory through Him Who loved us."
"Her words encourage me in my every day struggles ... " |
|
"Joy's love and
compassion for people is expressed not only in her words, but through the transparency of her life's message..." |
Looking for a speaker for your next women's ministry event?
When I’m contacted by a group looking for a speaker, I have some questions.
What are you looking for in a speaker?
What topics have you heard…and are you open to hear them in a new way?
Are you willing to plan an event around one of my topics? (that’s a wonderful gift you can give your speakers!)
What do you want the women coming to your retreat or event to take home in their hearts with them?
Will you be inviting others from your community to participate in the event?
It’s my goal to work with you to provide participants with laughter, life lessons, and a deep sense of God’s love for them.
When a woman walks up to me after a presentation and shares something in detail that touched her heart, I know together our joint efforts made a difference. I’m delighted when a woman comments, “I can’t tell you exactly what God is doing, but I’m changed because I came.” If a woman asks for prayer, I realize the privilege it is to serve God by lifting her to Him. Not long ago, a woman approached me and said, “I haven’t laughed this hard in years!” She then burst into tears sharing why the laughter was such a gift. Another dear lady asked, “Are you the entertainment?” I replied, “Yes,” all the while praying I’d be entertaining although that’s not my main goal. Later she returned to me and said, “I am so glad you came. God used you in my life today.” Now that’s why you and I do what we do!
My speaking topics have been updated…I invite you to take a look. If you have questions please contact me at joydekok@pitel.net
I'm also able to provide you with a marketing packet including posters, bulletin inserts, and publicity blurbs. I will send these to you at no extra cost. The bulletin inserts are set up invitation-style so you can make copy extras and send them in envelopes to those in the community you want to include.
