Christian-Devotions-SPEAK-UP with Mary Byers

Join host Marianne Jordan as she talks with Mary Byers. Mary Byers is an award-winning communicator and freelance writer who encourages and equips others to live and work more fully. Combining personal experience with dedicated research, she presents practical, hands-on programs that help men and women tackle universal issues as individuals, spouses, parents, family members, friends, or co-workers.

Byers has been speaking professionally since 1988. A member of the National Speakers Association, she addresses audiences at a wide variety of associations, corporations, civic groups, women's groups, and social service agencies. Byers made such a favorable impression when she spoke at the 2004 National Hearts at Home Conference that she was invited to speak at all of the organization's conferences in 2005.

In her first book with Harvest House Publishers, The Mother Load: How to Meet Your Own Needs While Caring for Your Family, Byers teaches women how to take care of themselves so that they can nurture a happy, healthy family. The mother of two lively children, she offers own- to-earth suggestions, spiritual truths, and real-life advice on how to juggle family responsibilities while creating a balanced life through supportive friendships, stress-relieving laughter, regular exercise, rejuvenating solitude, and an intimate relationship with the Lord.
