Pinch Hit After Dinner/Keynote Address
Dealing with Disappointment

This keynote is ideally suited for audiences whose hope of hearing a particular speaker have been dashed. What Marnie lacks in audience anticipation, she leverages with humor, personal stories and visuals.


Pinch Hit Program/Retreat Themes
Having been both an event planner and a speaker, Marnie is familiar with the extensive preparations that have gone into your event - from idea generation, to theme selection, to the coordination and carry-through of every little detail.

Having been a Pinch Hit Speaker for years, Marnie delights in stepping into vacancies and seamlessly weaving her material into your predetermined theme. She is well versed on the following topic areas, but more importantly, she is utterly dependent on God’s Spirit to provide the precise combination of stories, humor, inspiration and challenge required to touch the deepest needs of those present.

The words you spoke on Saturday night
went straight to my heart.

Mary Daniels

Life & Time Management – “The North Country’s Wonder Woman,” as one newspaper headline described Marnie, will share the paradigms and practicalities which enable her (and others) to lead a joy-full life.

"I would like to take an opportunity to commend
Marnie Swedberg to you. Marnie has demonstrated
in many ways that she has a vital and
growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
She possesses an extraordinary sensitivity
to God’s Spirit, as well as a willingness to follow
His leading unreservedly. That willingness has
allowed Marnie to experience God's presence
and power in ways that have challenged and encouraged
many others in their journey with Christ. Therefore, I would
certainly recommend Marnie to speak at any Women’s
ministry event. Her life and testimony will certainly be a
blessing. Thank you so much for your time and
consideration."
Rev. Dan Pierce
Faith Community Church, Fort Atkinson, WI


Personality Power – Myers/Briggs, DISC, the LaHayes, Taylor-Johnson, Jung and countless others all agree that there are four general categories of personality types with multiple underlying combinations. Marnie champions the power of the individual, equipping you to live to the fullest within your unique characteristics while bringing out the best in those around you.

Mom's On the Winnin' Team – Take a trip with this home schooling mother of three teens as she shares how to tap into God’s wisdom, patience and priorities during the everyday challenges of raising kids in a Godless and self-centered society. These presentations teach how to learn from and partner with God-the-Father, God-the-Son and God-the-Holy Spirit and are suitable for parents of home- or public-schooled toddlers through teens.

"Marnie allows God to give her fresh understanding
of His work in her life and is able to glean from the
joys, sorrows, struggles and successes she is experiencing.
Her humor, sense of detail, compassion, understanding,
along with her ability to communicate heart issues
always leave me refreshed and encouraged."

Gwynn Conrad
Missionary to Spain
Avant Missions


Beauty from the Inside Out – A poll of movie stars found that 100% were dissatisfied with their appearance. During these sessions Marnie encourages, challenges and empowers you to reach God's ideal of beauty for you personally, through the power and presence of Jesus Christ in your life. "Man looks at the outward appearance, but God looks at the heart."

Creating Joy – Circumstances can be confusing, but the joyful heart has learned to embrace both the good and the bad. You will laugh, cry and be encouraged as Marnie helps you change your thinking about the challenges you face each day.

The Friendship Factor – Friendships are a gift from God. Some are easy, some are hard and some need to be severed. In these sessions you will learn how to value and grow from each relationship in your life.

Gaining Spiritual Depth – Forget your lists of things to do, places to go, and rules to follow - no more would-a, could-a, should-a! Instead, Marnie will use personal stories, Scriptural paradigms and positive challenges to steer you toward a deeper, more meaningful relationship with God.

FYI (a little history)... Marnie grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota where she made her sales debut at age 14, selling "Handcrafts by the Handicapped." One day, at age 16, when her instructor didn't show up, she took over her health club class. They hired her, promoted her to manager immediately upon high school graduation, and soon thereafter she was managing three of their clubs. At 19 Marnie left to start her own business providing fitness programs to corporations including Honeywell, Prudental and others. She still loves a new challenge, loves to learn new skills, and enjoys meeting new people. Schedule permitting, she would be delighted to pinch hit for your next emergency vacancy.

In addition to the following texts, Marnie has also written hundreds of articles for newspapers, newsletters
and websites on
most topics related to home,
family, entertaining & faith.
