What does God want to say to you? Come find out, at Clearwater Lodge.
Clearwater Women’s Conference

Speaker: Lindsey Smallwood

“I had been a follower of Jesus for a number of years when, at age 29, I attended a weekend retreat led by the late Brennan Manning. During that weekend I went from knowing about God’s grace to knowing God’s grace. It was the turning point of my life. When I heard John Lynch speak it brought me back to that life-changing weekend. God is using John’s message of grace to set people free; even long-time followers of Jesus. I’m thrilled to have John with us at this year’s men’s conference, and urge you to join us and experience God’s heart of grace for you.”

Clearwater Men’s Conference
November 19-21, 2021
Speaker: John Lynch
God’s grace is always the answer—not simply for entering the kingdom of heaven, which many of us understand, but for living well in that kingdom, which most of us do not experience. Most have a mental awareness of God’s grace, but little experiential reality of God’s grace in their relationships.
As a world-class communicator, John is a vital Trueface staff member. Trueface is a ministry equipping people to experience authentic relationships with God and others. In addition to speaking internationally with the Trueface team since 1997, John has co-authored The Cure, Bo’s Café, Behind The Mask, and his own story, On My Worst Day.
John served for 27 years as teaching pastor at Open Door Fellowship in Phoenix, Arizona. The authenticity, longevity, and playfulness of these two communities, Trueface and Open Door, bring real-world reality and potency to the message of Trueface. John used his love for theater as a playwright and actor in Sharkey Productions, a troupe focused on gospel-anchored theater productions for those still seeking Jesus.
John and his wife Stacey often create inviting environments on their backyard patio and elsewhere for people to enjoy authentic community. They are passionate parents to their three children, Caleb married to Kali, with granddaughters Maci and Payton; Amy married to Cody, with grandkids Ridge and Navy; and Carly.
