About our Keynote Speakers:
Jim Book, Kissimmee Christian Church
Jim spent 17 years as the Sr. Minister of First Christian Church of Winter Park before coming to Kissimmee Christian Church in 2011. He is a 1987 graduate of Johnson University FL (formerly Florida Christian College) and formerly served as a member of the Board of Trustees. He is presently serving on the Board of Directors of the Christian Restoration Association. He is also one of the founders of Advance Center for Ministry Training.
Tim Gray, Community Christian Church, Tamarac

Now Tim oversees the ministry to adults, focusing on the development and oversight of LIFE Groups. Tim enjoys mountain biking, disc golf, bass (both the music and fish types), all Michigan sports teams, and eating BBQ as often as possible.
Steve Brooke, Legacy Christian Church, Lakeland
Steve Brooke was that kid from a broken, irreligious family whose life was spiraling into a mess, when he was introduced during high school to a church, and to Christians, and to the person of Jesus Christ, who would end up saving his life, changing his life and calling him into the adventures of life in ministry for Him. From youth ministry to senior ministry, from preaching in the pulpit, to ministry in the streets, from planting churches into existence, to pastoring churches out of danger, Steve loves Jesus and His people.
