About

My name is Eric Speir and I am a pastor, life coach and an educator. I like to use biblical principles, coaching, practical wisdom and encouragement to help others to thrive in every area of their life.

This is my personal blog. The theme of this blog is simply life and leadership by the Book. (Bible) The point of this blog is to empower and equip others to lead in every area of their life by following God’s playbook.

I write on leadership, personal development, devotionals, family and sometimes topics that do not fall into one of these categories. I also occasionally write about things that I find humorous or an occasional Top Ten list.

These are some of my main areas of interest but occasionally I will branch off into talking about other topics such as ministry and wherever my mind tends to wander.

My goal is to write practical and relevant content that you can use in your personal and professional life. I typically try to post about three times a week.

I would like you to take the journey with me. To be sure that you do not miss anything you can subscribe to my RSS or email.

MY BIOGRAPHY

I am a full time pastor and have been in ministry for about 13 years now. I have been in a few churches holding positions such as Ministry Development Director, Operations Pastor and in my current position I am the Assistant Director to the Georgia School of Leadership & Ministry. I spend the majority of my time developing college age students for effective ministry service.

I have also spent time in the marketplace as well. I have been in corporate management in a multi-million dollar finance company holding positions such as training manager and branch manager. In both the marketplace and in ministry I have given myself to developing people to their fullest potential.

I believe that knowledge and education are great tools to personal development. I graduated from Southeastern University with a Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Ministry. I also completed an M.Div in Practical Theology with a focus in Leadership Coaching from Regent University. In the very near future I plan on pursuing a Ph.D in leadership development or a D.Min in Spiritual Formation.

I love to write and encourage people. I am currently working on a couple of books dealing with overcoming setbacks and personal adversity.

I have been married to my bride, Roshelle, for over 13 years and we have two beautiful girls and a third child on the way. We currently reside in Georgia.

In my free time, I enjoy writing, reading, spending time with the family, cycling and working out.
