Tim's Titles & Presentations

The incomparable speaker Dr. Howard Hendricks once said, "I have 10 talks and 100 titles." He was joking, off course, but he does speak some truth about public speakers. Within one's area of expertise, there are some core truths that will be covered no matter what the title of the talk. That being said, Tim's expertise is marriage, family, emotional and relational intelligence, other interpersonal relationships. He is a master of the latest research data on what makes relationships succeed or fail as well as possesses a deep understanding of Biblical truths. Yeah, he's pretty funny, too.

Here are few of his presentations:

• A Celebration of Oneness in Marriage
  A lifelong marriage of passion and intimacy is the hope of all who get married. Yet, most couples fail to achieve permanent passion simply because they don’t know how. Even deeper, most have failed to answer a vital question: "Why did God create sex in the first place?" In short, "Why sex?" In a powerful, comfortable, light-hearted but still reverent manner, this seminar delivers God’s proven truths for couples who desire a lifetime of intimacy and love. Based on Tim's top-selling book, Sacred Sex: A Spiritual Celebration of Oneness in Marriage."

• Real Men
  From birth, men are driven to achieve, to provide, to be a hero, and to change the world. Yet, as “life” happens, those dreams and desires often become a distant memory as men now feel driven simply to survive. Join Tim (a guy who’s worked as everything from ranch foreman to pastor, farmer to professor, and construction superintendent to marriage counselor) as he takes you on a journey to re-discover the passion and purpose that God placed within your soul – to live as Real Men.

• Foundations for Marriage
  Originally created by Tim for use in an eight-week, Church-based premarital class, this material is now available to be presented in a weekend format for couples who are engaged or recently married. This workshop includes tremendous and entertaining teaching, handouts, and "Home-work." Tim's staff will work with your marriage team and your mentors to provide a comprehensive and effective premarital experience.

• Marriage@Work
  It's common sense: people who are in happy marriages are more productive at work since they don't bring the worries of home "to the office." Tim has become a national expert on helping business leaders understand what they can do to help their married employees stay married. He has also pioneered programs that are accepted and even endorsed by the diverse populations present in a typical work setting, including those who are not currently married. Bringing in a "Marriage Expert" to present in a business environment may raise a few eyebrows, but helping married employees create and maintain good marriages is a good investment. It's good for the heart, and it's good for the bottom line. Tim's work in corporate settings has been featured in The Wall Street Journal and USA Today.

• Maximizing Emotional Intelligence
  Research has overwhelmingly demonstrated that the key to both personal and professional success is not I.Q. or personality (two things that are constant), but it is E.I.: your Emotional Intelligence (something that you can intentionally improve). Tim has put together a comprehensive E.I. workshop that has proven beneficial to a wide spectrum of audiences, including college students, business professionals, educators, and church boards. Participants will not only grasp the power and importance if E.I., but will also be provided with proven tools to increase this vital, God-designed competence.

• Winning the Workplace Challenge
  Winning the Workplace Challenge: Getting along and getting things done is a cutting-edge curriculum created by Tim, Drs. Scott and Stanley and Howard Markman of PREP, Inc., and Jack Myrick.  This program has been used by companies and marriage educators around the country to solve the problems of their most important assets:  their people.  Includes participant workbooks.
