Meet the Seminar Speaker: Phyllis Kline
Phyllis is a born again Christian who loves the Lord Jesus and consequently His church. She has provided consultation services and teacher training seminars for churches in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and surrounding counties and states for more than twenty years. Phyllis has also been actively involved in teaching and leadership ministries in the local church for over thirty years, including the position of a full-time Director of Christian Education for four years. She has been directing the Ministry Tools Resource Center since 1999. She has written the material on its site as well as the curriculum and training resources. Phyllis has her Master of Arts in Christian Education from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University and her B.S. from Philadelphia Biblical University.
Her heart's passion is to see the church operate according to God's plan. She sees Ephesians 4:16 as the blueprint for the spiritual growth of the Body --the body "builds itself up in love, as each part does its work." To this end she actively seeks to equip God's people for service. Emphasis is placed on helping people find their best fit in ministry through the identification of their spiritual gifts combined with their personality, experience, and heart passions.

The Frequently Asked Questions
What do you charge?
While this ministry is Phyllis' sole means of income, she does not set a specific amount. Her primary desire is to equip people. She does not want to see that hindered if a church or organization could not afford an amount she would set. Consequently, she leaves the amount between you and the Lord trusting that you could come to a fair remuneration for services rendered based on your ability. You could take into consideration the length of the seminar and cost of materials she may bring which would vary depending on how many people attended. While remuneration for actual teaching is negotiable (between you and God, that is), she must ask, however, that you take care of actual expenses for travel and lodging if required.
