"Our expectations were exceeded when we hosted Chrystal for our Kingdom Woman weekend launch. Chrystal is an engaging and expressive speaker. She seasons the rich, Bible-based truths she is teaching with memorable, enjoyable and very fitting stories from her life. When she ministered to our congregation in general, and later to our women in particular, we were touched and buoyed by her vulnerability and willingness to be transparent. Her message has a beautiful blend of humor, thought-provoking encouragement, and gentle challenges to take hold of Christ who has taken hold of us."
