Raised in a pastor's home, Kathy has also been a pastor's wife

sincerity and sense of humor endear her to audiences wherever
she goes. Kathy's spiritual depth and life experiences make her

back for second and third presentations.
Kathy taught public school for many years at all levels (kindergarten

right person to speak to teachers' groups. She is as well accepted
in the secular world as she is in the Christian community.
Through her speaking and writing, Kathy inspires and challenges
her audiences to grasp the basic and vital Biblical concept::
We are all chosen to carry this amazing treasure: Christ in you
is the hope of glory. As Christians in this world, God chooses
to use each and everyone of us as His vessels!
She is married to Dr. David A. Slamp who is a pastor in Seattle,
WA. They have two grown children--a married son in Wash. state
and a daughter in New York City. They have two grandsons.
A Vessel of Honor... God has no method to reveal
His love to a hurting, dying world than through us. This message
(II Cor. 4:7) encourages people to have confidence in their vessels
in order to share the amazing treasure--which is: Christ in you,
the hope of glory.
Between the Devil & the Deep Red Sea...
Based on the life of Moses and the Exodus, this message helps
audiences understand that when they are at their ultimate extremities
and in an impossible situation, that is when God can work a miracle.
A River Runs Under It... Suffering or pain in
some form is an integral part of everyone's life. This message
teaches that joy is not fabricated, but is accessed through our
pain. Underneath all pain, there can be a river of "joy in
the Lord" despite circumstances.
You've Got Dad's Hands... This mess- age (John
14) helps listeners see that although the world cannot see the
Father, the Son, or the Holy Spirit, His spirit can be seen in
our lives. The life of the spirit is not what is seen, but what
is felt through our spirits.
Lifeboats or Luxury Liners? The church in America
is so blessed that it's difficult for us to realize that people
are floundering and dying all around us. In 2003 Kathy witnessed
a spectacular rescue at sea. In this message Kathy blends her
knowledge of the scriptures with her unique storytelling style,
and augments them with graphic photos of this incident. This message
is a stirring challenge to the church to get out of our "luxury
liner" churches with all the opulence and beauty, get into
the lifeboats, and "rescue the perishing."
The Glory Hole... Based on Psalms 92, this message
focuses on the need for God's continued "anointing"
on our lives. Yesterday's blessings were for then, but He has
glory and blessing available to us now. This message is a great
source of encouragement and blessing to audiences. From "glory
to glory" He's changing me!
Dealing With Stress In an Uptight World... This
message addresses the stresses and pressures that confront us
daily and gives us clear scriptural answers for them. It reveals
the cycle of despair and the pattern of discouragement that we
can fall prey to when we are not well-rested both physically and
in the Lord. (It is one of Kathy's most requested messages).
So! This Is What I Get for Being Loyal! From
the parable of the prodigal son, this message focuses on the older
brother. Many Christians today are doing many right things for
a lot of the wrong reasons. This message reminds us that when
our hearts aren't pure, we can become victims of bitterness, resentment,
and a judgmental attitude. It's, then, impossible for us to "Come
to the Party."
Heaven? I'm Going There! What's this life all
about anyway? We know that there is a better place, but life sidetracks
us, and we soon forget about God's promise of heaven. This "scripture-packed"
message about heaven will bless, challenge, and inspire the hearer
to keep focused on our ultimate goal--heaven--the joy of being
with Jesus and the thrill of taking others with us.
