The Most Requested Tea
Topics
(Excellent for
'speaker's topic' for TEA, either before, during or afterwards).
"Totally Tea"
To some, the 'sound' and/or
thought of a tea 'lecture' may sound as if it is a boring,
un-interesting subject. But, quite the contrary. The
subject of 'tea' is most fascinating and interesting from it's
origin and history until the present day.
Ruth's presentation consists of the origin of tea, it's history,
the tea plant, tea growing countries, basic types of tea and
differences between each, blends of teas, and "birth of both
Iced Tea and Tea Bags." She also gives a few classic
examples of interesting and unusual 'tea drinking customs' in
many countries. She answers and clarifies several 'most
frequently asked questions about tea,' such as, differences
between events known as Afternoon Tea, Low Tea, High Tea, Meat
Tea, Cream Tea, Cambric Tea, etc. Also, Scones, Clotted
Cream, Devon Cream, Double Devon Cream and Devonshire Cream.
Ruth discusses suitable "tea foods" for all types of Tea events.
This topic also includes instructions for making a proper pot of
tea, milk or cream in tea, use of lemons, etc. and the "whys" of
each and decaffeinating tea at home. "TOTALLY TEA",
includes several interesting "do's and don'ts" of tea etiquette
in public places. As always, Ruth's "tea humor" is
interspersed throughout.
This gives a clear, concise picture of the over-all subject of
tea. The attendees leave this session with a new
appreciation of a simple beverage known as "Tea," and with
gratefulness for the opportunity of a true, fun-filled time of
an interesting learning experience in "TOTALLY TEA."
"TOTALLY TEA" is not only for women, but for men, as
well as for all types of professional groups, ***women's
ministries and/or others interested in the exciting world of
tea! Age is no barrier to this lecture, as the content
appeals to all.
|
Note:
***TOTALLY TEA topic is often used for a lovely TEA, for the
perfect conclusion for Christian women's conferences/retreats,
etc. When used for these type events, Ruth closes with an
enlightening and challenging addendum to the above topic, of
using "Tea" for a tried and proven outreach for Christian
women's ministries. |

“Shank,
The Shepherd & The 23rd  Psalm”
This topic is, by far,
the most requested and most well-loved of all of Ruth's
inspirational topics! A beautiful and substantive message of
the real meaning of David's famous Psalm... a true pattern for
living. This message un-locks the deeper depths of this
beloved Psalm to reveal a clearer meaning and understanding!
“Shake,
Stomp & Step Up”
Thought provoking, humorous and challenging
message on persevering against all odds and ultimately overcoming
with God's help!
“The Touch of the Master's
Hand”
Many events in our lives
require a special "Touch of the Master's Hand." No one is
exempt from personal challenges, overwhelming problems or tragedy.
When we have exhausted human solutions, the Master's hand is always
reaching out to us. This encouraging message touches the heart
strings of all.
“Land of
Milk & Honey - Biblical Foods in Today's World”
(Best used for an extra
bonus/treat seminar for women's conferences/retreats).
Ruth's extensive research of foods from the Bible is a fascinating
and interesting study of foods, menus, mealtimes and beverages in
Bible times with amazing similarities to foods of today. Ruth
briefly shares portions of her rare cookbook, now translated into
English, whose author was a contemporary of Christ. A popular,
uniquely enjoyable, extra bonus for women's retreats, conferences,
etc.
“Now
What?”
Ruth’s poignant but joyful testimony from
her personal ‘grief and 'quandary,' to God's unique answers
that thrust her into new dimensions and professions as well as into
the business world. A popular, uniquely enjoyable, extra bonus
for women's conferences, retreats, etc.
“Overcoming Insur-Mountain-Able
Odds”
Life's everyday problems
can easily become 'mountains' that will totally engulf our entire
being... body, mind and spirit, that will 'rob' us of victorious
living. This message is a challenge to conquer and overcome
insur-mountain-able odds and begin living a new!
“Hilarious
Joy”
Most Christians and non-Christians, lack joy
and laughter in their lives… Laughter is physically and spiritually
healthy. A challenge to "pursue hilarious joy" though
biblical principles.
"Life in
the Manse"
(Best in a
Seminar setting... great extra bonus for women's
conferences/retreats... especially for :"the ladies in the Manse").
This candid, substantive subject is a must for pastor's wives, pastor
associate's wives and women in ministry. Most of these ladies are
plunged, un-prepared, into a totally different lifestyle which this position
requires. Many become disillusioned, discouraged, and frustrated
with the multiplicity of duties thrust upon them. Ruth's lifetime
of experience in this area as a pastor's daughter, a pastor's wife
and full-time pastor herself, qualifies her to speak masterfully to others
now assuming this awesome but honorable role. This beneficial and
informative seminar is a great extra bonus for women's conferences and
retreats. The subject is all encompassing by covering every aspect
from partner, hospitality, menus, proper table settings, etiquette, etc.
to the private life of wife and mother... in the parsonage/ manse!
Instills confidence to the ladies in this unique position.
Note:
Ruth will be happy to customize her talks, to fit in with your
particular conference/retreat theme. |
