Dr. Bill Senyard has been a pastor for almost 30 years, a popular speaker at churches, events, and conferences, prolific author, and creator of three unique on-line transformational programs. Six of his programs are currently highlighted on Right Now Media. His podcast, Gospel Rant is #34 on Feedspot’s 100 Best Christian Podcasts. His passion is to help weary and beat-up Christian begin to hear the music again. He is the founder president of Gospel App Ministries.

He is an internationally recognized speaker on Biblical forgiveness, parenting, addiction, and the Beatitudes. His style is warm and humorous, and the gospel is evident in every sentence. His goal is not just to teach, it is to have lives transformed. He is committed to being 100% shame-free.

FORGIVENESS

Dr. Bill noticed the problem at his first church. For reasons known only to God, it had gathered many people who had suffered rape, abuse, abandonment and even attempted murder. The forgiving methods that Bill had been trained in at Seminary, not only weren’t helpful, they made matters worse.  That was the beginning of a long journey of relearning what the Bible really says about how to forgive.

In 2012, Dr. Bill published a doctoral thesis that created a fresh and very powerful biblical forgiving intervention. It was so effective that compared to other published Christian and secular forgiveness interventions, it ranked #2 out of 26 interventions. While most of the other interventions required expensive skilled technicians and counselors and days and weeks, the Forgiving Path only took a couple of hours.

Now the Forgiving Path (www.forgivingpath.com) is fully on-line, takes under 2 hours and well over 1000 people have been through the on-line program. He has also written three powerful books on the topic available on Amazon (Fair Forgiveness, We Messed Up and Cupology 101). His well-received “We Messed Up” video series is available on Right Now Media.

Does his approach work? Participants have self-reported a 21% decrease in their desire to avoid the person/institution that hurt them, 38% increase in empathy and benevolence, a 20% decrease in desire for revenge, and almost 80% increase in experience of justice.

Dr. Bill has shared this Biblical, groundbreaking material with individuals, churches, and conference audiences in 3 continents. He is available for a single event or multiple day conference.

Is your church or group struggling to overcome divisive conflicts? Are your people frustrated that they can’t seem to let go of some hurt, wound, racism, or betrayals? Are you ready to relearn what Jesus was saying when he commanded that we should forgive seventy times seven times? This could be a powerful time.

Here’s what people are saying about Dr. Bill and The Forgiving Path.

  • And I’ve got to say WOW!  I have for many years had so much unforgiveness toward my parents and my husband. You have helped me to understand how to begin to forgive.  I don’t understand why you aren’t on every news outlet and shouting it from the rooftops! Laurie
  • Dr. Bill helped me to start releasing heavy burdens that were weighing my heart down and learn effective ways to work on healing and forgiving. It made me realize that God really does love me and does not want me to suffer. Being a survivor of much trauma and abuse, I was still holding onto a belief that I was being punished for something that I had done. Tamara
  • I didn’t think I would be able to forgive as I continually found myself trying for years but not succeeding, making my unforgiving heart even harder. I was still skeptical when I started but really enjoyed the journey and was able to take the 1st step toward forgiveness. It has been a hard process, but I can see major changes in my hardened heart. Thank you for your service in Christ and setting hurt people on the path to forgiveness!  Lucinda
  • Bill’s message that the human heart demands justice is built upon the foundation that our God demands justice (i.e. Jesus’s death on the Cross) – is so powerful and the fact that we can bring that perpetrator before the throne of God for a verdict of justice and then pass the sentence of the grace of forgiveness is a game changer. Howard
  • Bill helped me see God’s desire and ability to relieve us from the pain and bitterness inherent in our broken lives and replace it with His unbelievable joy and peace.
  • I thought it was fantastic, stunning, creative – the list of superlatives could go on. I have already recommended to other people. Bruce

PARENTING

Dr. Bill is a popular speaker on the topic of Biblical parenting. He smartly integrates the powerful Gospel with the latest in attachment theory and neuroscience. He has created “Good Enough Parent” an on-line program consisting of 15 Biblical tips for tired and frustrated parents of teens and tweens. Basic message? “Every child needs at least one adult who is irrationally crazy about him or her.” (Urie Bronfenbrenner)

Here are what some parents and counselors are saying about Dr. Bill and Good Enough Parent.

  • My child isn’t isolating as much. I am more relaxed as a parent and asking God to direct my words with my child. Tracy H.
  • I really appreciated the non-shaming approach Dr. Senyard took to this information. Amy V.
  • I am now more able to take a step back when we have arguments and not get so offended by what my daughter is saying.
  • I loved the repeated message – we are not trying to be more like God, we are trying to depend on him more. Bridget P.
  • I found the tips regarding brain development and attachment styles to be very helpful. Reasoning with a brain that’s still developing usually doesn’t go well! I was moved by the “why do I feel this way” prayer. Amy V.
  • This was exactly what I needed. The most beneficial reminder was that I just need to get 30% right to be a good enough parent. Tracy H.
  • Just hearing you say the phrase “good enough” over and over helped plant it in my brain and heart. Susan A.

Would your church or event like to hear how good enough parents can become MORE good enough parents, without shaming? Contact us. Here’s Dr. Bill talking about Good Enough Parent (https://vimeo.com/795670495).

ADDICTION

Addiction continues to plague the church and the world. We used to believe that the problem was largely genetic, or it was an incurable disease, or it was about bad choices by weak-willed people. Now we are learning that addiction’s beginnings are largely rooted in how infants are cared for—or not—by primary caregivers/guardians and parents. What the individual experienced in their first two years of life created powerful subconscious inner-working models that affect their proneness to addiction well into their adulthood. The good news is that the brain’s inner-working models can be altered.

Dr. Bill helps audiences—in a shame-free way– see how their brain subconsciously deals with addiction to such things as drugs, alcohol, porn, and even ‘good’ things such as career and religion. Then Bill shares powerful Biblical gospel-driven techniques that begin to rewire their brain a little or a lot. Along the way, Dr. Bill will share stories of addicts who have experienced real change.

He has spoken at churches, conferences, twelve step groups, and workshops on how the power of the gospel can set addicts free for over 25 years.

BEATITUDES

Dr. Bill’s passion is to help beat-up and frustrated Christians begin to hear the music again. He is first and foremost a Biblical theologian. In the Beatitudes, he sees the cornerstone of the entire gospel. His new curriculum, Jesus Said What? is now available at Amazon and Right Now Media. Over 2000 people enjoyed Jesus Said What? at Right Now Media in the 4th quarter of 2022 alone.

Do you want your church or organization to re-capture Jesus’ Kingdom vision and mission? This would be a great start. Here’s Dr. Bill. https://vimeo.com/732167583.

Every talk by Dr. Bill will be

Gospel Focused: The question always asked is “OK, so what do we do about it?” Dr. Bill’s answer is always “Ask God to give you his power, through the Spirit in your inner-being so that you would right now begin to grasp the love of Christ for you and others—that Jesus purchased for you 2000 years ago.” (Eph 3:14-21)

Practical: Bill’s passion is to help weary and beat-up Christians begin to hear the music again. To get back to the dance, there are steps that can be taken. Simple.

Shame Free: Too often, we have shamed Christians by telling them to do something that their mid-brain is going to fight them on. A great example is forgiving. Our brains are designed to not forgive. They want to protect us from being hurt again. So, to tell people that they should forgive is 1) correct and 2) impossible on their own. So, Dr. Bill lets them know that. Plus, he give them baby-steps that they can do that moves them forward, maybe for the first time in a long while.

Enjoyable: Before he got into the ministry, Dr. Bill did some stand-up comedy work. Maybe they are the same. But either way, audiences will enjoy Bill’s warm and humorous approach.

Life Transforming: The goal is not just to teach, but to have lives transformed by the Gospel in the hands of the Holy Spirit.
