Testimonials

“Your candor and the fact that you were so real made us truly appreciate your presentation. Thanks for your honesty and your genuine nature. You gave people principles and truths they can stand on and put to work right away.”

“I heard nothing but good things about the weekend we had with you at our church. I look forward to having you return.”

“We are truly grateful to Mark for speaking at our church. We hope our paths will cross again. Irenaeus, one of those old dry and dusty church fathers in the second century said, ‘The glory of God is a person fully alive.’ Mark’s presentation of himself and his desire demonstrated exactly that.”

“Mark and Jan Gregston showed us how to take off the masks we put on with relationships - not just with kids, but with each other. They gave helpful insights on the relationships we have and don’t have with our children, and some useful tools in having a close relationship with our kids...”

“Mark has a relational speaking style that really connected with our church body. His instant rapport with our congregation allowed the principles he spoke about to fall on an accepting and teachable audience.”

“From my position as a pastor, Mark’s usage of faith stalwarts like Philip Yancey and C.S. Lewis is a credit to his individual faith walk as well as his adaptation of that faith into practice.”

“While speaking at our retreat, Mark truly impacted all of us. Those in ministry always say, ‘Ministry is relationships.’ Mark taught us what that really means.”

“Mark Gregston truly impacted the lives of our parents and youth leaders. His unique ability to connect with parents who are frustrated and defeated is truly a gift. Mark has his hand on the pulse of this generation of young people and offers Biblical insight, Godly counsel and practical steps to help parents and leaders capture the hearts of young people. Families have been healed and lives have been changed as a result of his faithful witness and testimony. Mark is the real deal and will give you a new perspective when it comes to parenthood.”

"Mark connected with parents right where they were. Every attendee knew that Mark could relate to what they were going through. His willingness to spend personal time with people, addressing their specific situations, was a real blessing."

"Dealing With Today's Teens helped our parents and our ministry staff to better understand the culture and world that our teenagers live in. It also helped us to better understand the pressures that teenagers face, some of the thinking that goes on in their minds, and the reasons they act like they do. The conference helped out parents to better communicate with their child, and helped us to understand why even some of our young twenties are responding to life they way they do. Parents of children of all ages (from 3 to 73) could benefit from the conference in dealing with their child. The weekend was a great conference and much needed in our families' lives."
