About Our Ministry

Kelly Ventura is a proven national speaker, ministering to thousands across the Nation. Kelly brings a message of hope and salvation as he ministers in youth conferences, conventions, crusades, youth camps and churches throughout the United States.  Kelly and Shay (his lovely wife of fifteen years) together with their seven year old daughter Lauren travel full time while keeping a home in Central California.  Kelly is sought after for his inspirational, positive style of communicating to people and for his powerful dramatic presentations. Kelly's travels have taken him many places and he counts it an honor to be able to make a positive impact on the lives of thousands of people young and old.

When they are not on the road the Ventura's enjoy spending time along the Central Coast walking on the beach, and exploring the tide pools.  They also love it when they can have time at home.  Shay likes to garden and dig in the flower beds.  Lauren likes to ride her Barbie jeep.  While Kelly enjoys sitting on the back patio and reading.  These girls are Kelly's life!  Family is his number one priority.  His daughter has a fearless faith about her, and his wife is the greatest earthly example of God's unconditional love that he's ever witnessed.  According to Kelly, she is absolutely amazing.  He is having the most awesome time being married to his best friend and raising a seven year old drama queen.  

In 2006 Kelly authored his first book entitled "Into Your Breakthrough" which is now in its' second printing.  This Spring Kelly is working on a new book entitled "After His Passion", a book about the power of this Gospel message.  In late 2007 Kelly and his good friend Pastor  Darin Sargent formed Clergy Comedy, a traveling comedy team that ministers through the venue of Christian Comedy.  Be sure to check out www.clergycomedy.com for more information on this exciting ministry.
