The buzz on Josh's speaking.
"Josh is one of the most effective communicators, to both teens and college students, I have ever heard. His messages are culturally relevant, biblically based, and extremely applicable. Josh's gut-level honesty and realness makes him a favorite with all audiences. His strong relational and interpersonal skill allows him to not just speak, but to build meaningful relationships with your team and students."

"Josh has been a perenial favorite here at Camp Orchard Hill. He is a versatile speaker, able to connect with campers from middle school through high school. Year after year our staff raves about how their kids open up and are affected by the style and substance of Josh's messages. He uses a mix of Scripture and storytelling to convey Truth in an understandable and memorable way. Josh is fun, interactive and a gifted communicator - a good choice to speak to any group of young people."
Derek Hodne, Program Director; Camp Orchard Hill - Dallas, PA
"Josh (Ott) was one of the best retreat speakers that our youth group has ever had. He was faithful to the Word of God, and faithful to speak from his heart. He did more than just speak truth during his time with us. He got to know our leaders, he took the time to love our kids and he showed his passion for youth ministry throughout our time together. I would use him again."
