To Invite Kristen
Kristen Smeltzer desires to bring hope to God’s people. It is an honor to travel and be a part of what God is doing all over the globe. Below, you will find an invitation form. This information helps to make prayerful decisions concerning Kristen’s calendar and itinerary. While it is a great honor to be invited, Kristen is not able to accept every invitation submitted. Please trust that you will be answered as soon as possible.
Some helpful guidelines to consider as you submit this form:
Airfare, food, transportation and lodging expenses are to be covered by the hosting church or organization; an honorarium, above this, is welcomed.
Kristen Smeltzer’s materials, such as books and teachings, will be sent to each event as we want her timely message of hope accessible to attendees. To make this possible, we request the hosting church or organization provide both an appropriate location and personnel to manage and conduct purchases at no expense to Kristen Smeltzer. (If you are a bookstore inviting Kristen for a signing, however, she will work with the store so that everyone benefits.)
Again, thank you for the honor of your invitation to be part of what God is doing in your city.
Speaking Endorsements
The Lord has gifted Kristen Smeltzer with a wonderful ministry. It's firmly rooted in Scripture, empowered by the Holy Spirit, and filled with God's great love for people. Our church has been blessed the past twenty years by the content of her conferences and retreats, as well as her preaching. Kristen has a joyful sense of humor and is one of those naturally-supernatural people who models life in the Spirit. I've known her for almost forty years and know her as a person of outstanding character and devotion to Christ.

Loaded with scriptural truths and strategies to help you stand strong in any season, Kristen's book tells the story of a very painful chapter in her family's life, and how God turned what the enemy meant for destruction into beauty and blessing. The truths contained in this book took her many years to uncover, but she writes about them masterfully so readers can learn from what her family experienced. In addition to crafting this book, Kristen speaks nationally about her experience and the strategies God revealed for overcoming the spirit of identity theft. Kristen has been invited by groups that include men and women, and has also shared her message with one of our most vulnerable populations—youth groups. I have personally benefitted from her teaching more than once, and have found her to be an engaging, powerful speaker who teaches with compassion and authority. I highly recommend Kristen as both an author and speaker.

Kristen Smeltzer was a guest speaker at a local church. I was greatly impacted by her message on redemption and grace as she poured out her heart and personal testimony. I was deeply touched by her continued love over the years towards someone close to her. She never gave up on loving, amidst deeply hurtful actions. Her delivery and rawness was articulate and touching to my heart. I also appreciated how she combined the use of testimony, sound Biblical teaching and applicable Scripture. The redemption that took place is well worth hearing her beautiful and anointed story of love and grace.

FREE MESSAGE FROM KRISTEN
"GOD'S PLAN FROM THE VERY BEGINNING WAS FOR HIS SONS AND DAUGHTERS TO WALK IN TREMENDOUS AUTHORITY. BUT IT IS THE PROCESS OF WALKING THROUGH OUR TRIALS AND OUR OFFENSES, WITH GOD AND MAN, THAT PREPARES US TO WALK INTO THE GREATNESS OF OUR CALLING—WITHOUT PRIDE AND ARROGANCE, KNOWING THAT WITHOUT GOD WE ARE NOTHING."
