Bill Haslam
Inspirational Speaker

Ordained Southern Baptist, his service as mediator, consultant and inspirational speaker has spanned across  many Christian denominations and his life experience shared with persons of the Jewish,Muslim and Buddhist religions.  "We all need each other " is his mantra.The Times Argus newspaper of Vermont captured the essence of his spirit well when it wrote in 1996, " The Pastor  as he calls himself, tells fascinating tales of everyday people from Main Street, U.S.A. and from the farm. He notes changing attitudes as both Americans and young adult hostelers from abroad express concern about America's loosing her legacy " of freedom. Haslam shares his experiences in a 'Grand, Fatherly' tone eliciting both laughter and an occasional tear."  Inspiration and hope go hand in hand. Some "yellow brick road" and some "harsh reality" peppers his sharing during question and answer periods, but it almost always concludes with a warm feeling knowing that you have experienced lived spiritual moments and that our future includes yet another, clearer way of thinking for living.
