Casey is one of the most gifted communicators I know and has a firm foundation in Scripture. He can capture and hold the attention of just about any crowd while engaging their mind with God's truth. I met Casey at seminary and found him to be highly engaging. Since then, I have had Casey in 2 years straight and will continue to have him. This means that Casey can come in and share more than his testimony. Most recently, we had him come speak on abstinence and purity. Wow! I highly recommend this for any youth group. Casey is not just a guy with some cool stories. He is my friend and a real man of God.

I have the great privilege of serving with Casey in the trenches of day-to-day ministry. God has especially gifted him with the ability to relate across every demographic. His style is unique and engaging. His laughter, contagious. His passion, inspiring. His message, clear and compelling. Casey is not a mere communicator; he is a pastor, instinctively mentoring, shepherding and caring for people where ever he is. I am greatly blessed to serve alongside such a gifted man, and I am especially grateful to call him a friend.

Casey Cease has a potency and fire in His preaching that can only be explained by the favor of God and anointing of the Holy Spirit. Humbly, he realizes that he can't improve upon the Word of God, yet sees and communicates it in such a life-altering, consequential way that I have never seen in all the speakers I've worked with. He is just as incredible and in love with Jesus off stage as he is on... in other words: this dude's legit. I recommend him for every event I lead worship for.

It was an honor to have had Casey as a part of our church community. He has a heart to see God be glorified in all things. He has a great pastoral heart. I would recommend Casey highly for your event, because you will get more than a great speaker. You will expose your people to a man that seeks to know and obey God with all of his heart and that really cares for people.

Casey Cease has tasted the bitter fruit of his own depravity as well as the juicy reality of God's grace. His passion for God's glory, God's Word and God's work make him worth putting before your people. Your church will be shaped by exposure to this man.

By the grace of God, Casey Cease is still alive. However, he is more just breathing, he is alive by the power of Jesus Christ and that power flows out of his yielded life to impact thousands of people. Although his ministry is growing rapidly, his desire for truth and the knowledge of Christ is growing faster. Casey is a powerful speaker, with a powerful testimony and a powerful message that will have an impact regardless of the age or background of the listener. I can't recommend him enough for your ministry.
Joel Engle - Lead Pastor - The Exchange
It blesses my heart to see men like Casey Cease carrying the word of God in a relevant way to today's students. His testimony is powerful and his heart is tender. The combination of these two things make Him a powerful tool in the Lord's hands.

Casey Cease is one of those rare finds in traveling ministry that instantly grabs your attention. Not only is his life testimony completely captivating, but His walk today is more profound. His energy and passion for Jesus is evident in all areas of his life. I would recommend Casey for anything you are needing a great preacher/teacher for.

I am baptizing 27 Jr. High students because of our DNOW Weekend. As I am reading through these students' testimonies, it is incredible how many wrote ‘there was this guy named Casey Cease who spoke on Saturday night. His testimony spoke to me and I gave my life to Christ that night.' With humor and conviction, Casey weaved his personal testimony through God's Word. It was awesome to witness Casey connecting with my Jr. High students, captivating them with his amazing story, using humor in one instance and having them in stitches and on a dime, making a serious turn, changing the mood of the room and maintaining my students' attention at the same time. Casey is a pleasure to both work with and watch love on your students. He's coming back; I would have a revolt in my Jr. High Ministry if I didn't.

"Casey is more than just a guy with an amazing story, he is an amazing communicator of the Gospel. He's funny, relevant, and dynamic and students connect with him instantly! My own teenage kids still talk about when he spoke at their camp 3 years ago! As a fellow Youth Speaker and as a Dad, I promise you Casey is a guy you want in front of your students!"
Runks Runkles - Youth Communicator, InFocus Ministries, Inc.
In a day when so many communicators are more concerned about entertainment than teaching, how refreshing it is to know and hear Casey. He is a gifted communicator of truth - and yet has a unique ability to keep students engaged without sacrificing truth in the process. God uses his life, testimony and gifts to communicate the Gospel of Christ. He is truly a blessing!
Jeff Berry - Worship Leader, Crosswind Ministries
After over 20 years of traveling and speaking, it is refreshing to find a young man who understands that the power to change lives is found in the Gospel, not in his "story". Too many speakers seem to think that the message of Jesus should be the package that is wrapped around their testimony. Not Casey- he will be the first to tell you that his testimony is secondary to the message of hope that is found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He has a GREAT story, but he has a GREATER God!
Kyle Byrd - Founder/Executive Director of Front Line Ministries
Casey Cease has a tremendous impact on students. He has a tremendous passion for souls, and a deep love for Jesus Christ. When he speaks lives are changed. Casey has always been one of my favorites to speak to our students. He is open, honest and transparent. Casey Cease is one who is making a difference in our generation.
Mark Gibbens - Minister to Students, First Baptist Church, Sarasota, FL
If ever there has been a need for quality speakers, the time is now...lucky for us we found Casey. He speaks with a passion about life that few speakers can muster and his heart stopping testimony gives him the credibility to do so. He will have you near tears from laughter one minute and in tears the next from his story. He is uncompromising in his pursuit of truth, and this comes out in his message. He preaches the gospel message unapologetically in a way that all students and adults can grasp. A wonderful speaker, an even better listener, Casey is the complete package. He will bless any ministry he touches and will do it with complete humility. Casey knows what it is to find forgiveness in the arms of Christ, but to live with the remembrance of a life once lived in sin. He conveys a message of hope while keeping students in reality that sin has consequences. To any minister considering a speaker for any event....do your ministry a favor and call Casey; your students will thank you!

If you are looking for a youth speaker who will make the difference in the lives of your teens, Casey Cease is the solution to your needs. In over 15 years of sponsoring youth events, to bring about positive change in the lives of teens, I have never heard a better teen communicator than Casey. Your teens, (and adult leaders) will experience God in a new, honest, challenging and exciting way. Many speakers leave after the event. Casey's message of "life change by the power of Christ", remains long after he has gone on to serve others. I know, because I have had the experience many times. I give him my highest recommendation, and we enlist speakers from all over the country.
