Invite The Old Watchman to Speak

Thank you for your interest in inviting me to speak.

My name is Lonnie Richardson. For more than sixty years I have walked through the ordinary and extraordinary experiences of life—growing up and working on a family farm, spending thirty years as a nurse, and more recently navigating the challenges of recovery after a life-changing stroke that forced me into retirement.

Through every season, my Christian faith has been my anchor.

I am available to speak at churches, men’s ministries, retreats, Sunday School classes, community groups, and other gatherings where people are seeking encouragement, hope, and practical faith for real life.

Topics Include:

• Faith Through Stroke and Life’s Unexpected Trials (testimony)
• Lessons Learned from Both Sides of the Hospital Bed
• Endurance When Life Changes Direction
• Finding Purpose After Loss
• A Working Man’s Journey of Faith
• The Importance of Finishing Well
• Encouragement for Caregivers and Families

My speaking style is conversational, honest, and rooted in personal experience. But always, my talks are anchored in Scripture. Rather than presenting polished answers, I share what God has taught me through work, hardship, recovery, and daily faithfulness.

If you believe my story would encourage your group, I would be honored to discuss your event.

Please include the following information, in the contact form below, when contacting me:

• Name of your church, organization, or group
• Event date and location
• Expected audience size

I look forward to hearing from you.

Grace and Peace,

Lonnie Richardson
The Old Watchman
