What People are Saying...

Lucinda Secrest McDowell is a gifted communicator! Her messages provide the best combination of biblical truth, spiritual depth, anecdotal humor, and poignant application. I am always challenged, encouraged, and motivated to live a life that matters for eternity when I hear Lucinda speak. She connects at a heart level with her audiences on and off the platform. I highly recommend her as a speaker for your retreat, conference, leadership event, or retreat!

“Everyone I know longs to step up to new levels of trust and confidence in God, but how do we begin? My friend Lucinda McDowell helps us to new heights of spiritual intimacy– through life experiences, solid biblical lessons, and prayer. She is both convicting, yet comforting.”
Joni Eareckson Tada
Joni and Friends International Disability Center

“Words matter. And they don’t have to be many or long to do so. Lucinda Secrest McDowell selects key words of our faith and puts them in settings and stories that are truly encouraging and positive.”
Dr. Leighton Ford
A Life of Listening

“Live these words, pray these words, trust these words, but most importantly, read Lucinda’s words as part of your daily walk with our Lord.”
Debbie Macomber
#1 New York Times Bestselling Author

“Most of us spend the majority of our waking hours exegeting the verbs to do, to want, and to have. We’ve filled our lives with incessant noise and activity but discover that our lives are actually rather unfulfilling and exhausting. Lucinda invites us to exegete the verb to be, with encouraging words that breathe the abundant life of Christ into our souls.”
Dr. Stephen A. Macchia
President of Leadership Transformations

“Lucinda Secrest McDowell conveys the strategic importance of looking for and finding God’s transformational grace in our everyday lives. Gently. Tenderly. Wonderfully. Indulge in the grace-filled truth she shares.”
