Welcome to my blog! My name is Eric Speir and I am the head mastermind of this blog. (For that matter, I am the only one!) I am a pastor and educator by profession. I’m also a trained life coach who uses biblical principles, practical wisdom and encouragement to help others to lead more effectively in every area of their life. I’m a happily married man to one wife and we have two and a half kids (I have a third on the way). Finally, I am unashamedly a Christ follower.

My part of the story is to empower and encourage others to thrive while fulfilling theirs. Continue Reading…
