Brenda is a storyteller, Bible teacher and ordained minister. Because she is a storyteller, Brenda speaks more “with” you instead of “at” you. This makes a difference when your vulnerability is being challenged. Whatever event you invite Brenda to, the story is current, fresh and raw trusting Jesus for an end. Like all good stories, there is a brave ending and a journey to be shared. Brenda has years of experience of teaching all age levels and groups. Brenda writes her story at (link hidden). She has also published two books, I Wish I Could Carry Your Pain and a Bible study, Trust Issues with God.
Brenda is a gifted communicator who has a heart for teenagers. Her primary topics are pain and suffering in light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. These may seem like a glumly topic but it always hits home to her audience. Many youth come through our camp with great burdens that they struggle to deal with in a mature/healthy way. Brenda encourages her audience to live a brave life and revisit many past scars/wounds so that the healing process may begin as they find that their greatest hope is in the life of Jesus.
Brenda is a woman who speaks Biblical truth and will believe in your students as young men and women who bear the image of God who will go forth into their communities and share the hope they have in Christ.

The ideal event would have a setting where Brenda would be more accessible to the audience. Brenda knows that can have many different settings but she rarely just talks “at” people. There are stories being told, some that need responses. There are vulnerable opportunities being given which are more effective when she is not removed from the audience on a large platform thus appearing invulnerable. If the group is a teen group (or more flexible), Brenda will try to bring as many of the 5 senses into the message for greater "sticktuitiveness."
Brenda also is available to travel with her husband John who can lead worship and add specific-written songs to her messages.
Brenda Seefeldt Amodea has been living a brave and vulnerable life with 35 years of ministry—all of it with youth. She loves youth—still. She is also an effective Christian speaker who challenges her audiences to also live brave lives. This comes through vulnerability and trusting God with that vulnerability. Because she is a storyteller, Brenda speaks more “with” you instead of “at” you. This makes a difference when your vulnerability is being challenged. Brenda has been sharing these stories since 1990.
For Brenda’s first nine years she served as youth pastor of churches in Minnesota and Virginia. Since 1990 she has served at New Covenant Fellowship in Manassas, Virginia. Yes, that is 25 years in one church. Brenda attended North Central Bible College (now North Central University) in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Behavorial Science with a minor in Youth Ministry and was originally ordained by the Assembly of God denomination and is now ordained through New Covenant Fellowship. For 25 years she created youth ministry resources for Wild Frontier ((link hidden)) and has written for every major youth ministry publication.
Brenda has been married to John Amodea since 1997. John is a worship leader, career musician, and song writer. He has written music that heals the soul as music can. John is also available to travel with Brenda. They have a back-and-forth style which adds more truth through music. You can see this at work in their “Note to Self” video series found at (link hidden). John is also available to lead worship or lead a worship team for an event.
Brenda and John have not birthed their own kids but have raised several as their own. The raising of their kids has definitely formed Brenda the most as a pastor and a human. Prison is a part of their lives now, and other such stories. These stories belong to their now grown kids, whom are still very much in the midst of these stories. These stories are not for public sharing. The impact this love has had on Brenda though is very much a part of her storytelling. And she is not above showing pictures of the grandkids!
All the years of youth ministry and her love for teens has turned Brenda into a Brave Dating Coach. She has a lot to say on this topic as she has coached many grown teens into marriage. She shares these Impassioned insights at (link hidden) and as a speaker.
Simple sound is fine. If traveling with John, his guitar will need to be plugged in also.
Other than the Bible and life, Dr. Brene' Brown's research has put research to the full-life of faith Brenda has lived for 35 years.
