Amy Bretall discovered her creative gifts by taking steps of faith.
With a professional and successful background in corporate America, holding senior-level Human Resources leadership business positions for 25 years, Amy Bretall knows first-hand the transforming power of faith, specifically, renewing our spiritual health in order to find, and use, our inherent creative gifts. To stepping out on faith with an initial idea to do something “more” with her photography of crosses, to then writing what she interprets (sees) in the images, to publishing a series of unique photo-devotional books and speaking about her creative, faith-driven entrepreneurial story, Amy shares her insights and personal experience to help others connect to their spiritual side.
Amy expands the way people see, think, and experience faith, opening eyes to ordinary everyday surroundings. Sharing how she discovered her creative talents of photography and writing when at a low in life, discerning spiritual nudges and nuggets, using her creativity and faith to pull herself up and move forward.
Amy’s keynote brings energy and excitement, inspiring audiences to shift their perspective, filter out distractions and doubt, focus on renewing our spiritual health, and see the bigger picture in life (photography puns intended!).
Speaking Testimonials
“We were so happy Amy spoke at our luncheon. Sharing her faith journey and how she was prompted by God to publish two books was inspiring to all. Attendees said they could have listened to her story for another hour. Amy has a gift for holding everyone’s attention.“
–Carol Parker, Organizer, UMW, annual women’s event
“Amy was able to challenge us to rethink our understanding of the cross. The symbol of our faith is not only contained in specific places designated for faith, but experienced and present in obscure and easily overlooked spots. The passion she brings to the topic is palpable and contagious. She sparked conversation within our church and helped open our eyes to see the cross wherever we go. She was a delight and an inspiration and will be wherever she goes.”
-Rev. Trevor Dancer, Lead Pastor, First United Methodist Church
“In our devotional time yesterday we were talking about when you don’t see God working and one of the team members talked about how impactful your time with us was and how she is constantly seeing crosses now and is reminded that God is always there even when we don’t see or feel Him! Thanks again for sharing with our team!”
-Beth Graves, Chief People Officer, Lifewater/Water for Good
