Hi! I'm
Mike Winter
I have been speaking to audiences for more than 30 years, and understand the challenge of finding an encouraging speaker who articulates your message well to your audience.
Topics and Core Messages

Know God
I help people understand the Bible and apply it to real life. Whether it’s parenting, leadership, purpose, or knowing God better, I teach from multiple books of Scripture to show who God is, how we walk with Him, and how to live out His truth.
If you need someone to teach the Bible clearly and practically on a variety of topics, I’m here to help.

Leadership
Men were explicitly created to lead. God chooses people to accomplish His mission in the world. In these talks, specifically designed for men, I share how leadership begins with self and then transitions to our relationships at home, church, and in the marketplace.

Manhood Defined
God defines what a man is through His word. In this series of talks, I help men understand God’s definition of manhood so that they can apply it to their lives and teach it to their sons and daughters for raising godly sons and marrying godly husbands.

Parenting
The product of marriage is children. God mentions explicitly His goal for parenting being godly children. How do you accomplish this work? In this series of talks, I help men and women understand the process of raising godly children while depending upon the grace of God.

Marriage
Marriage is hard work. More than half quit. God invented marriage and is deeply committed to the institution. Using God’s word, I help men and couples understand His purpose and pleasure for marriage.
My Approach
I understand the challenge of finding an encouraging speaker who articulates your message well to your audience. As president of MiCHN, the Michigan Christian Home Educators, I speak and participate in an annual conference with more than fifty Christian speakers.
In addition, as the Director for CBMC Central Michigan, I am responsible for finding speakers quarterly who can deliver inspiring and motivating messages to business and professional men. I realize that the success of any event comes down to the quality of the speakers. If they inspire, encourage, and stay true to the organization’s core values, then the event goes well. But if they don’t, well . . . hopefully, next time.
Thank you for considering me for your next speaking engagement. I am honored. You can expect me to:
- Reply quickly to your speaking request
- Work with you to determine your core message so that I stay in line with your objectives
- Prepare thoroughly so that your people are inspired, encouraged, and motivated to take positive action
- Be thoroughly Biblical
- Help promote your event through social media
Why Me?
I have been speaking to audiences for more than 30 years. I have delivered sermons as an associate pastor, corporate training sessions as an executive coach, and numerous workshops, small groups, and men’s outings as the knowGodcoach. Most of my work career has involved public speaking.
I have worked as an associate pastor, insurance trainer, executive coach, and spiritual coach. I have written extensively in my blog about applying the Bible to our daily lives and have taught many of these topics to numerous men. I am the father of ten children whose mother has been my wife since 1988. My gift is teaching, which is my passion though I also enjoy reading, golfing, shooting, and hiking with my family.
