Speaking & visits

Bring the story to your people

The shape of an offer, built from the verified themes of the two books — encouragement, resilience, and the roots that hold. This is sample structure: topics, formats, and every practical detail are confirmed with Mark before anything is offered in his name.

Talks drawn from the books

From The Art of Encouragement

Nobody Is Finished Yet

The resilience talk: keeping going, rebuilding what life breaks, and learning to lift others along the way. For churches, community evenings, and gatherings of people in a rebuilding season.

From both books

Encouragement as a Practice

Not a feeling to wait for — a practice to keep. How small, deliberate encouragement changes rooms, families, and congregations.

From Deeply Planted

Deeply Planted: Roots That Hold

What you rebuild on. A quieter, deeper talk about the roots beneath resilience — for small groups, retreats, and study cohorts pairing both books.

Visit formats To confirm with Mark

  • Keynote talk — one of the talks above, sized to your gathering
  • Church or community evening — talk, conversation, and books at the back
  • Reading-group visit — an evening inside either book, with its discussion questions
  • Virtual visit — the same conversation, by video, for groups at a distance

Formats are the standard shapes an author visit takes; which of them Mark offers — and how far he travels — is set by Mark, and this page updates the day he does.

Fees & practicalities

Fees, travel, and book-table arrangements are set with Mark directly — the sample carries no numbers in his name, because none have been set with him yet.

What the sample can promise is the process: one inquiry form, a real reply, and every detail agreed in writing before a date is held.

Reading both books together?

The pair was designed for it — story first, then roots. Group orders and paired study seasons start with the same form.
