Booking & Speaking Engagements: whtbrd.pnkmnk
Thom McGuire (whtbrd.pnkmnk) is available for speaking engagements, workshops, and seminars. His messages challenge the modern Church to move beyond the comfort of four walls and return to the radical, nomadic, and prayer-fueled faith of the first century.
The Vagabond Christian Series
Exploring identity and mission in a post-Christian world.
- Faith in the 21st Century: Why are people “reticent” to call themselves Christians? We explore how to reclaim a biblical identity in a society that is increasingly indifferent or hostile to the Church.
- Strangers and Aliens: Has the American Church traded its “pilgrim” status for “superstar” pastors and massive campuses? It’s time to remember that Earth is not our home (1 Peter 2:11-12).
- Authenticity vs. Religious Masks: Drawing from Thom’s personal journey of wearing religious masks in the 20th century, this session discusses how to shed performative religion for a raw, real relationship with Christ.
- Rediscovering Spiritual Disciplines: How do we seek God through discipline without falling into the trap of legalism and man-made rules?
- Unitas Ekklesia (Church Unity): Lessons from the global Church on how to bridge denominational divides and stand as one body.
- Enter the Fray: Moving beyond insular communities to engage a world that prefers our silence.
Social Justice & Kingdom Action
Practical advocacy for the “least of these.”
- Homelessness: A Mirror to Our Soul: Understanding that tragedy is often just one heartbeat away. We discuss how to move from pity to purposeful action for those in shelters and on the streets.
- Human Trafficking: Modern Slavery in America: Shedding light on the epidemic of trafficking in the U.S. and how the “sexualization” of our culture fuels this fire. Learn how the Church can lead the charge in education and eradication.
The Prayer Lifestyle
Instruction in the “Art of Prayer” based on the life of Jesus.
- Master, Teach Us to Pray: The disciples didn’t ask for lessons in leadership or preaching—they asked how to pray. We explore prayer not as a technique, but as a deep communion with the Father.
- The Model Prayer: A deep dive into the Lord’s Prayer, dissecting the heart and principles behind the words to transform your daily conversation with God.
- Starting a Prayer Room: Practical guidance on launching a space for worship, forgiveness, contemplation, thankfulness, and intercession.
- God on Mute: A raw look at the spiritual significance of the “silent” seasons of prayer and what to do when you feel unheard.
- Ancient Paths: Exploring the introspective and profound prayer techniques found in monastic traditions.
- Mobilizing the Body: Strategies for coordinating and promoting group prayer that shifts the atmosphere of your local church community.
