What Others Say
Ken Davis, Author, Speaker, Comedian
I sat in the back of the Grand Hotel Ballroom on Mackinac Island, Michigan, and watched with fascination as four hundred couples laughed and danced and sang. This wasnít a room full of giddy teens. These were married couples of all ages, and they had come from all over the United States to celebrate their marriage. It was a party.
In the midst of all this hilarity a particular couple caught my eye. They appeared to have little to celebrate. They were not participating and turned slightly away from one another, not touching or smiling or making eye contact. In fact the sullen look on their faces advertised to anyone near that they were trying hard not to have fun. I remembered hearing them exchange harsh words during check in. Evidently some conflict was inhibiting their ability to celebrate.
On the stage Jay and Laura Laffoon were doing what they do best, living out the give-and-take of marriage and having fun doing it. The spark of love burns bright in their lives.
Then Jay and Laura did or said something that brought the house down. I donít remember what it was. It really doesnít matter. What does matter is that the woman in this couple I mentioned started to smile. Oh, she tried to hide it with her hand, but she forgot to cover her eyes. (Eyes can smile too, you know.) Then she playfully punched her husband in the shoulder and before long they were engaged not only in the festivities but with each other too.
Dr. Dennis Swanberg, “The Minister of Encouragement”
“Jay & Laura are the stimulus package for realistic communication between a husband and wife!”
Dr. John Trent, Strong Families
The Laffoons are the real deal. I’ve met them, their kids, some of their parents, and seen hundreds of folks in a weekend changed for the better by their ministry. In my work with AACC, Focus on the Family, AMFM, and several seminaries, I’ve met firsthand a great many “up and coming” authors and family speakers. I’d put Jay and Laura in my top 1%.
