“For 35 years I have listened to banquet speakers and have never heard anyone more gifted in sharing their story in such a heartfelt and moving way! Just enough humor to keep everyone engaged, your story was difficult but we never felt you were trying to evoke pity, only understanding. And the way you perfectly blended our ministry information into the telling of it was masterful! Honestly, it was truly the very best presentation I have ever heard!!”

"Dave is an outstanding speaker, and was an absolute pleasure to work with. Dave took time to meet with us in advance to understand our ministry and our needs and goals for our fundraiser. He wove details about our ministry and our needs into his presentation, which made the transition from his presentation into the financial giving time absolutely seamless. Dave's story is powerful, and he had our guests alternating between laughing and crying most of the evening. Our guests gave rave reviews, and he was truly one of the best speakers and we received the 2nd largest financial response we have had to date. We are incredibly thankful for Dave's willingness to share his journey and testimony of what the Lord has done in his life for the benefit of the unborn."

“David McCroskey was an absolute blessing to our Annual Vision Dinner! He was captivating, engaging, and brought just the right balance of humor and heart. It was clear he not only believed in our mission at Family Life Center but also inspired our guests to believe in it too. Because of his message, we saw a 150% increase in giving and welcomed our largest crowd ever. We cannot recommend David highly enough to any pregnancy center looking for a speaker who connects, inspires, and makes a lasting impact.”

“It was great having David McCroskey for our guest speaker at our Project 61 Ministries 2025 Fall Banquet. I had many people comment how his speech was very inspiring and touching. It will be complicated to find a speaker to measure up to that level of inspiration for our 2026 Banquet. We had 525 people at our banquet and I was observing the crowd while standing in the back of the room and it was apparent that he had everyone’s attention. It seemed David has a way of getting people to laugh and moving them to tears in the same paragraph. I would definitely recommend him for any fundraising banquet.”

What a joy to have David McCroskey at our annual fundraising banquet. He truly engaged the crowd and I've gotten so much positive feedback. Even from people who were not at the banquet but had talked to people who were. His story is a true testimony to the value of every life and the goodness of God even when life is beyond hard. My daughter who has heard many banquet speakers, told me the night of the banquet that David was the best she had ever heard. I would highly recommend David for your event.

"David McCroskey was an outstanding speaker, and I would highly recommend him to any pregnancy resource center or church. He brought just the right balance of humor, authenticity, and warmth to his presentation, making him incredibly engaging and relatable. What stood out most was how intentional he was in connecting with our audience, thoughtfully incorporating our banquet theme and even weaving in the name of our clinic throughout his message. His speech was both captivating and deeply heartfelt, leaving a lasting impression on everyone in the room. Following the event, many of our donors shared how much they enjoyed hearing him speak and how impactful his message was. David truly helped make our evening memorable and meaningful."
