Please accept this letter as a glowing recommendation for Marilyn Laszlo as a speaker for college,
church or association meeting. In fact, Marilyn would be a hit in just about any setting. I have
invited Marilyn to speak at both Bryan College, where I formerly served as president, and Cedarville
University, where I currently serve as president. I have heard Marilyn speak at least a dozen times and
each time was an incredible experience.
A better indicator of her effectiveness as a speaker is the way college students respond to her.
She has become a favorite among the student bodies of both institutions. Her ability to hold the
attention of 3,600 university students, faculty, and staff for 45 minutes with her humor and passion
is a testimony to her effectiveness as a communicator. It is no wonder she was a highlight of the
Billy Graham crusade where she spoke before thousands.
On a personal note, I am impressed with the hours Marilyn spends with the students after speaking.
She never seems in a hurry and always invests her time in those who want to talk to her.
I believe these conversations are what God has used in the lives of many who choose to follow
Him in overseas ministry. Needless to say, I am one of Marilyn Laszlo's biggest fans. We can not
wait to have her back here at Cedarville University.
William Brown, President, Cedarville University
