"Brian's presentation to both the adults and the high school age children was energetic, engaging and very interactive. He was able to make you feel he was talking just to you and was very comfortable on stage. He was easy to listen to and thought fast on his feet when he realized that many of the adults did not know the difference between a pixel and a picture – myself included. He re-directed his talk to address the level of the audience. Most impressive."
-- Barbara Kelly, Founder, Midwest Catholic Family Conference
Brian offered practical ideas and a common sense approach to the high school program participants in regards to social networking on the internet. He mentioned parental permission and monitoring to the young people quite often. As a parent, I appreciated his wisdom, honesty and advice in dealing with aspects of the internet that I wasn’t aware. He bridged the gap between me and my daughter concerning MySpace and Facebook information safety. Brian reiterated how communication with your child is imperative whether it’s about the internet, cell phones, media, or friends.
"Kersti and I just wanted to say thanks again for taking the time to come to Atlanta to speak at our TOT! Everyone really enjoyed the talk, there was some aspect of the talk that appealed to everyone in the audience, especially singles who continue to struggle to find a solid spiritual person in this midst of our increasingly secular world."
-- Phyllis Misak, High School Program Chair, Midwest Catholic Family Conference
-- Ann Blasick, Former Young Adult Ministry Program Coordinator Archdiocese of Atlanta
