To Whom It May Concern:

On September 25, 2004, Barb Boswell was part of a team of speakers for George Fox University’s women’s seminar, Selah. Barb is a wonderful communicator and contributed a great deal to the event. Comments from the attendees were overwhelmingly positive regarding her portion of the program.

Barb shares in authentic, "real" fashion about her life-changing journey of discovering and being treated for cancer. Her experience gives hope to many that God can take life circumstances, both every-day times and hard times, to shape us in His image and become "our" Jesus. Barb approaches her sessions with a combination of sincerity and humor, providing many "laugh outlets" for her audience.

I highly recommend Barb as a person with wonderful character who walks closely with the Lord. She is able to articulate her journey in a way that moves audiences to deeper commitment to the Lord.

Sincerely,

Sherilyn L. Philips

Executive Director of University Relations

Barb Boswell has a way of uniquely sharing about her life using humor and real life illustrations. Barb’s down to earth style and honesty allowed women to think about how God wants to use them on a daily basis to glorify Him. Our women shared that through Barb’s messages they were able to let go of some fears they have been holding on to for years.

Barb’s speaking topics are relevant for any women’s event, be prepared to be enriched, laugh and have fun, fun, fun!

Our women's group was blessed to have Barbara Boswell speak during our

Women's Tea this spring. The theme for this tea was "hats", and sure

enough, Barb brought her "hats" to model for us. While Barb entertained us

with her wonderful sense of humor, she made sure to share a message that

both challenged and inspired us all.

All in attendance enjoyed Barb's presentation, and we would be happy to have her share with us again.

Just a short note to say that Barbara Boswell, is a dynamic speaker and

would be enjoyed by all. She has spoken to our Breast Cancer Support

Group (Hot Flashing Lumpy Ladies) and also at the Cowlitz/Wahkiakum

American Cancer Society Relay For Life Survivors Lunch. She knows the

struggles patients face when dealing with their cancer and is able to

make you laugh and make you feel positive about your cancer. She uses

her own life experiences to illustrate God's ability to touch us where

we are. Both times were a true joy listening to her speak. You are

smiling, laughing and nodding in agreement with what she conveys. A

great joy to hear.

Barbara Boswell is a true survivor! When our newspaper wrote a feature article about Barbara and her journey through breast cancer I knew she would be an inspirational speaker to our local support group. Her book is a tribute to her determination AND spunky attitude that life will not get you down if God is your co-pilot. Her stories are full of coping strategies laced with humor offering encouragement to everyone that has dealt with any of life’s challenges.

On 16 May 2004 Barb Boswell spoke at Deep Creek United Methodist Church for their United Methodist Women’s Day. Barb is a wonderful inspirational speaker. She has a way of taking everyday situations and illustrates God’s ability to touch us where we are today. Barb does this through humor, Scripture and thought-provoking true stories. She opens your eyes, ears and heart to see that God is around always. I use her book as a short story study book to help me realize how important my relationship and daily walk with God is so important. She is s trusted guide and friend.
