Our Speakers
Chris Blue
CO-LEAD PASTOR, PACIFIC POINT CHURCH
Once upon a time, an LA Laker Girl fell in love with an NHL goalie, and that was just the beginning. Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, Chris was in the dance and film industry for a long time and now lives with her husband, John, and their five children in Costa Mesa, CA, where they lead Pacific Point Church. They’ve spent the last 24 years of ministry on the frontlines of church planting and are revival-ready! With toddlers and teens under the same roof, there is plenty of wild & wonderful to write about, and Chris shares their crazy adventures daily @chris_blue. A passionate believer in things being altogether lovely, the Blue Crew mantra is “love hard & fight hard,” and their story tells of the sweetest growth coming from the most difficult moments. When she’s not leading Bible studies or speaking at women’s events, she can be found cleaning house or running carpool, in a hip hop class, at the beach or vintage shopping. Or cheering on and praying for her son JT who is a Navy Seal candidate, currently in BUDS training.,
Tom Garasha
YAVAPAI COUNTY SHERIFF'S OFFICE CHAPLAIN
Tom was the lead pastor of Shiloh Community Church in Phoenix for 24 years. In 2007, he left to become a pastor/consultant to pastors, helping countless clergy in eight states. He is the author of two books - "Cardio Christianity" and "EKG - Probing the Heart of a Pastor."
He has been a law enforcement chaplain for over 22 years and for the last four years has served as the pastor for Bethany's Gait and Lissa's Legacy. In this role he has ministered to multiple wives of military/first responders and numerous couples. He has a great love and passion for military, first responders, their spouses, and their children.
Cristi Rose
FOUNDER, BETHANY'S GAIT RANCH & LISSA'S LEGACY
Cristi understands all too well what it means to live with a man with a warrior's heart. Her husband Hoke is a retired Marine Corps Lt. Colonel, her oldest son is a Marine Corps Cobra Pilot, and her youngest son is a Navy Seal.
​
In 2006 she founded Bethany's Gait Ranch, a ministry to serve at-risk children and horses in need. Seeing the struggles Marines were having after serving in combat, and searching for a way to help them heal, her husband thought work with the horses would make a difference. In 2011, with Hoke's assistance, she added an equine facilitated learning program specifically for active duty and veteran military. In April 2013, they moved the program to Prescott, Arizona and began serving first responders as well.
When Cristi's best friend Delissa was tragically shot and killed by her combat veteran husband in 2016, God put it heavily on her heart to create a ministry to honor her friend by supporting military and first responder wives. It became all too obvious that there just weren't resources to help these women support their husbands while ensuring the well-being of themselves and their children. And so, in 2017, Lissa's Legacy was born.
