Agape presents Reverend Michael Beckwith as he kicks off the inaugural event of Agape's new three-part "Beckwith Speaker Series". The theme "Tapping Into You - Discovering Your Limitless Potential" explores the strengths, courage and abundance inherent in who we are.

In this, the signature series, we profile those whose life's work or career demonstrates the message of Agape. The speakers embody the Agape philosophy and have used that philosophy to realize their full potential. This is practical spirituality; this is how New Thought looks in this millennium.

* Explore the strengths, courage and abundance inherent in who you are * Experience true grit and real vision living together to develop a fulfilling life * Extract from Reverend Michael's personal path how your own life's work or career can demonstrate your fullest potential
