Jim did a fabulous job connecting with our kids in a short period of time. Each night he brought a message that challenged and encouraged the kids wherever they were at, whether Christians or non-Christians. And he didn't just present "stock" messages, but he took the time to develop effective, hockey-related illustrations that really kept their attention. Jim's mix of profound truth and humor make him a very effective speaker, and I would highly recommend him, whatever your function.

I count it a real privilege to recommend to you the ministry and message of Jim Tice. I have known Jim for more than 10 years and have seen his skill as a contemporary communicator of the Christian message used by God. He is a man of proven character and deep devotion. His commitment to his wife and family is an inspiration to me and others who often struggle with how to best balance the demands of ministry and home.
I have seen Jim speak to and engage audiences of various types and sizes over the years. Most recently he did 3 sets of stand up comedy for a karaoke outreach event that our church operates in a local bar. He got many laughs from the audience of both churched and unchurched people with own brand of what I call, "family friendly" humour. Jim's ability to connect with the audience was noted by many in attendance.
In addition to his oral communication skills, Jim also possesses a talent for dramatic writing. I have used one of his many humourous scripts with great success in our youth ministry.
Alone or with his gifted and passionate wife Bonnie, Jim is an excellent trainer of leaders for your ministry as well.
Whether as a plenary conference speaker or a seminar leader, Jim brings a breadth and longevity of experience to helping others understand and do ministry better. Jim is a very experienced mission trip leader, small group equipper, spirituality mentor and communication trainer who can certainly be of benefit to leaders that need to be both inspired and educated.
As a speaker, comedian , writer and trainer I highly recommend Jim Tice. He will connect with the audience, engage them with the message and leave them both entertained and impacted by the message of Jesus Christ.
In Christ, Rev. Jacob Birch Lead Pastor Erin Village Alliance Church
