1. Mommy is a good woman, a very good woman!
    alicia's son Jonathan, 10
  2. When I grow up, I want to be a mommy just like my mommy.
    alicia's daughter Keona, 4
  3. To me, Alicia is the complete package. She is an awesome speaker, an incredible author, a wonderful mother and wife, and my best friend. Who I see day in and day out is the same person that appears in public—a true follower of Jesus.
    Barry Jay Chole
  4. I shared the platform with Alicia, heard her speak [and] realized how much she loved the Lord and His Word. When Alicia asked if I would write the forward to her book – I said yes. How could I resist?!? I was taken by this dear woman.
    Kay Arthur, Precept Ministries International
    From the foreword Kay wrote for Alicia's book, Sitting in God's Sunshine
  5. Alicia is one of those rare communicators who captures the hearts and challenges the minds of a generation. Her book, Anonymous, sits on my shelf next to C.S. Lewis, and I am convinced that someday, she will rise to a similar prominence if given the platform and freedom to express her full God given potential.

  6. Alicia’s teachings on mentorship opened my eyes to the foundational importance of a mentoring community in my own life. She has a tremendous passion to communicate the wholeness of God’s purpose for broken people in broken communities, and shines a light on that path to wholeness and peace.
    Sarah Groves, recording artist
  7. Alicia has the mind of a theologian and the voice of an angel. She's a dangerously gifted communicator.
    Pete Hammond, VP, InterVarsity Christian Fellowship
  8. Alicia’s voice is so unique and penetratingly real that its message not only disarms the cynic, it meets the deep hunger within us all: the soul cry to belong and to be loved. I cannot think of anyone else who so embodies the passion - and the intellect - needed to reach this lost generation.
    Joanna Weaver, author of Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World
  9. Alicia Chole has a unique way of framing truth. Her heartfelt and thoughtful words penetrate the soul and make you feel and think in new ways.

    Lead Pastor of National Community Church
    Washington, DC
  10. Few people bring together a craftsmanship with words, a profoundness of insight and an anointing of the Holy Spirit like Alicia when she ministers. As her personal acquaintance, I also know that beyond public ministry she is a person of integrity, relational authenticity and deep devotion. I recommend her highly.
    Dr. James Bradford, Central Assembly, Springfield, Missouri
  11. Alicia’s ministry at our annual North Texas District Council was such a blessing to hundreds of ministers and their spouses. Our 'taping team' indicated that they cannot remember in recent times anyone whose tapes were more requested than hers. Alicia is a woman for all seasons and all traditions: a thoroughly unique blessing!
    Vic & Naomi Schober, North Texas District Superintendent
    (also, Alicia's spiritual parents since 1983)
  12. A powerful and gifted communicator, Alicia Britt Chole was like a gentle yet stirring breeze, constantly moving and beckoning us to a higher place. Her unique ability to carefully craft her words kept us at attention. One's mind was not allowed to wander, if even briefly, for fear of missing just one of her thoughts. Her ability to communicate tough truths with tenderness was like a breath from heaven, bringing hope, courage, and understanding. She is sophisticated yet unpretentious, serious but fun, and approachable despite her brilliance. Clearly, God has his hand wrapped solidly around her life. I doubt any of us will ever be the same.
    Joanne Cole, Director of Women's Ministries
    Capital Christian Center
  13. Alicia spoke for our international Celebration in 2000 and our General Council in 2001. She is eloquent, mesmerizing, profound, and captivating.
    Dr. George O. Wood, General Superintendent, Assemblies of God
  14. Alicia has the unique ability to build bridges to many different types of people through her effective communication, sense of humor and education. I believe God has built up Alicia as a voice which reaches multiple generations and offers insights to discovering the truth about God. I highly recommend Alicia.
    Dary R. Northrop, Senior Pastor of Timberline Church
  15. Alicia was a plenary evening speaker for our first national conference. She is a captivating teacher, creative dramatist, exquisite wordsmith, passionate daughter of the Heavenly Father. Alicia is an exceptionally gifted woman who powerfully inspires both young and old to grapple with truth and greater intimacy with God.
    Dr. Beth Grant, Director, National Conference for Women in Ministry
  16. Every word Alicia Britt Chole delivers accomplishes its intended purpose: to bring truth down to earth where we run our business, accomplish our marriage and friendships, and process life's enigmas. She turns a word well and delivers every principle packaged in practics ready to live on the street. Alicia presents professionally and polished, seasoned with gutsy humanity.
    Joy Shroeder, Author, Tools for Mentoring
  17. We have been reading over the evaluations from our recent conference and unanimously the women thought Alicia was a perfect 10! Our conference was sold out and reports are still coming in about the breakthroughs many experienced through Alicia’s teachings. We’re already hearing of groups that are going to use Alicia teachings for curriculum in their churches. This was our second time to have her speak and she will always be welcome here!
    Priscilla Taylor, Women's Ministries Director, N. California/Nevada
  18. Alicia immediately connected with the hearts and minds of our students during spiritual emphasis week. They said, ‘It was like she was instantly a part of our family. She addressed our deepest spiritual and emotional needs in a practical manner.’ Honestly we've tried to convince Alicia to spend a month a year with us! She always a standing invitation to return as often as she can.
    Steve Smallwood, Former Dean, Bethany College
  19. Alicia spoke for our state conference. I’ve been directing conferences for years and have never had this happen, but the evaluations filed one clear complaint: they wished we could have had LESS music so they could have had MORE time with Alicia!
    Joyce Addison, former Director, Georgia District Women's Ministries
  20. A lot was resting on who we brought in as a speaker for our first all-Europe women's retreat. Everyone was moved by Alicia's ministry among us. She has a unique point of view yet an inoffensive way of hitting home. Alicia makes the scripture become real and colorful. She is refreshing and moving and captures your attention like nothing else!
    Sandi Mundis, World Missions field representative, Europe
  21. Alicia has the rare capacity to engage simultaneously both the intellectual as well as the emotional. In doing so her ministry creates circles of inclusion rather than lines of alienation. Simply put, everyone is impacted!
    Rob Rhodon, Lead Pastor, Commonwealth Chapel
  22. My first thought was, "She has such a sweet spirit." My second thought was, "I think she just removed my appendix!"
    Jonathan Zachariou, Pastor, Davis Christian Assembly
  23. We so appreciated the privilege of having Alicia Britt Chole speak at our WM Conferences. Her message of being prepared to minister deeply moved the entire group of women at both conferences. We were challenged to spend more personal time in God's word and seeking intimacy with Him in prayer rather than looking for public acclaim.

    As an author and speaker, Alicia sought to serve others, not be the prima dona. Working with someone as gracious as she is made the whole event go smoothly. We were blessed to have her with us and we love Alicia!
    Coleen Griswold
    Former State Director for Illinois Women's Ministries
  24. Alicia has a wonderful spirit and an insightful and challenging message. Her presentation style and message really connect with our students. I would not hesitate to have Alicia join us again.
    Dean Paulson, Director of Campus Ministries
    Northwestern College, St. Paul, MN
  25. We were blessed in 2005 to have Alicia Britt Chole as our speaker at our Women's Fall Retreat. What a superb spirit she had as she shared with the ladies of Northern New England Distirct. I had been informed that she has a wonderful way of speaking into the heart of unsaved ladies as well as deeply ministering to those who already know the Lord. I had shared with the ladies in our district to bring their unsaved friends and family. Over 50 ladies accepted the Lord at our fall retreat! It totally took my breath away. How someone can minister to the unsaved and the ladies grounded in the word is totally astounding. We will be having Alicia back in 2008. I am going to be sitting on the edge of my seat to see what God will do this time through Alicia. She has a real gift of sharing and stretching all of us.
    Bevie Jo Marquardt
    WM Director NNED
  26. Alicia Chole has a profound way of communicating eternal truth in story. Her ability to capture an audience and equip them towards health is something everyone should experience.

  27. As Alicia ministered to our church family, she presented God's truth in such a way that we knew she had lingered just a little longer than most in His presence and had allowed His light to shine a bit further on the path. She spoke with "the tongue of a penned writer", and our hearts were changed.
    Jane Collins, wife of Sr. Pastor Richard Collins
    Evangel Temple Assembly of God, Columbus, GA
