Mega Cooking™

This is Jill's most popular presentation: the kitchen management program that is saving families money and time. The average savings per family per year are $1,640, according to a recent survey among readers. Jill presents the full program in a 6-hour seminar. Bits and pieces of the workshop can be presented in less time and in mini-seminars. Jill's interviews on this topic have ranged from several one-minute spots on a national radio program to one-hour call-in interview shows. Two major aspects of this presentation are 1) Mega-Cooking -- How to prepare many meals all in one weekend. Jill takes some industrial engineering techniques of mass production and adapts them for the home cook. Jill makes it easy to understand and very do-able. And 2) Mega-Shopping -- How to procure your family's groceries for less. Jill covers the benefits of economies of scale, shopping like a professional, acquiring bids and negotiating prices.

More Mary and Less Martha

An inspirational presentation to encourage ladies to align their priorities under Biblical standards. Jill doesn't present this in a "come-be-like-me" approach, but with a sister-to-sister style that is punctuated with humor, anecdotes, and modern Bible stories. For women of all ages and occupations.

Nutrition: the Bible Connection

"What is a good diet?" Experts differ, authors disagree and moms are shaking their heads wondering. Jill is systematically studying the Bible to discover what God Himself says about how we are to eat. The study is fascinating and enlightening. Jill presents the information in a Bible Study format; the Holy Spirit does the revelation and conviction.

Another Professional Mommy

This inspirational presentation gives real hope and encouragement for ladies who consider child rearing one of their top priorities. It is filled with anecdotes and Biblically-based assurances of the wisdom of their choice to pour themselves into other eternal beings: their children. For an audience of full-time moms, or working moms whose hearts are with their children.

Supernatural Business

Jill presents the differences between the world's MBA (Masters of Business Administration) business Administration). This presentation is developed with a compare-and-contract listing of the wisdom of basing our business practices on the Bible. Jill emphasizes the supernatural aspect of operating a business for Almighty God. Jill has spoken on this topic to all age groups, male and female, established businessman and novice.

Writing to God's Glory

There is a world of difference between writing to God's Glory and many writing techniques on the market. When one writes with His anointing, the words have a power that touches lives with an eternal significance. Jill teaches adults and children about writing with a fresh approach. This workshop is based on her curriculum, "Writing to God's Glory." She is the founder of His Writers, a Christian writer's fellowship, editor of the Kids Write Contest, and editor of the Bonding Times newsletter. The information can be presented briefly in a 15-minute presentation through to a full day or multi-day workshop.

God's Purpose

This speech is ideal for a ladies banquet or retreat. Jill retells her testimony which leads her into the discussion of God's hand on each of His creations' lives. Each person in the audience is important to God and His plan. Jill lifts the audience toward the Lord and helps them focus on how marvelous His wisdom is in placing them right where He has. This talk goes beyond self-esteem to Christ-esteem. She usually presents it to women, but can adapt it to audiences that include men.

Enabled by God

Jill's third son, Trent, is autistic. God has done wonders in her life through the blessing of autism. She is the founder of PREACCH, an international support group for Christian parents of autistic children. God has been performing miracles in Trent and in Jill's family through this adventure. Jill presents the benefits of having a special-needs child and encourages parents to focus on the joy instead of the dread.

Active for God

This talk changes as it adapts to current events. Jill inspires her audience to active Christian Citizenship. One person can make a difference. Jill organized the national prayer rallies at congressmen's offices during the "War of HR6" and the National Prayer Lunch for the 1996 Presidential Campaign. She relates the stories of lay-Christians across the nation and how they operated with their spiritual gifts to make a difference in their communities, states, and the nation. For all audiences. Variation: Praying for Americans - a reminder 

of God's Love and Power and Sovereignty.

Alan’s Rib
This definitely is not the speech for a room full of feminists. Jill presents the concept of serving your husband in the Light of how the church should serve Christ. Challenging and uplifting, this presentation encourages women that servanthood is noble.

The Power of Positive Parenting
We, as parents, can train our children in God's strength to become who they are in Him. Jill presents an encouraging talk to parents to not get weary in well doing. She draws from the Bible and real-life examples of the vital role parents have in their children's development. Jill emphasizes lifting our children up toward God, rather than handing them over to their own sin nature.

Why Math?
This talk could also be called ABC Math: Arithmetic Bible Concepts. This is for any parent who is having difficulty teaching math to their children. Jill shows the relevance of math to many occupations, but more importantly to God's design. This presentation is based on a popular brochure and the "still-in-research" book.

Ask Jill
Jill answers six of the most often asked questions to her ministry: What about judging others? Where are the older women? How do I get my husband to be the spiritual leader in our home? What do you do about church? What curriculum should I use? (Can be adapted to a non-schooling audience.) How do you fast? Each of those questions can stand alone as a topic.

A Discerning Child
Every book, script, and show is written by someone. Every person has a worldview. Their writing, no matter how skilled, will reflect the writer's worldview. How do parents teach their children to discern the theme, the idea of what they are absorbing from literature and the media? In this talk, Jill gives parents some fun, and yet Biblically based, helps in guiding their children to learn to discern.

Our Best for the Lord

Voltaire had it all wrong when he said: "The best is the enemy of the good." In God's system the "good" is the enemy of the Best. Jill develops this conversation with her audience to help them to make wise choices about their time and energy - that they are only offering their Best up to God, and not just some "good works."

Those Church People
This is a very popular presentation of Jill's in which she "acts" her way through a variety of "churchy personalities". Humor and props make this a fun, yet inspiring talk as she warns us of the dangers of being members of the "Jerk Police" or many other "roles" we try to play.

Homeschooling Themes
A veteran home educator for more than eighteen years, Jill has six prepared speeches specifically designed for those who home educate their children: Successful Homeschooling, Lifestyle Learning, Mission-minded Education, True Learning, The Behavior Modification Lie, and Stylized Myths. A separate information sheet is available with more details.

Everlasting Ladies
This comes from Jill's heart. As she counsels hundreds of women each year, she hears their cries for help. More than help with the household, they want help with who they are. Relying on the Bible, she encourages ladies to look for their identity in Christ - not their size, shape or circumstances. The Cross was their birthplace and they are daughters of the King.

Vaccinations?
Though the Bonds have collected much "head knowledge" about vaccinations, it is the Bible that gives the valuable view about this topic. Jill works the information into a Bible study pointing out how much God does have to say about the issue.
