Jenni Butz
Jenni Butz's love of learning and gregarious nature made her years teaching high school French and English fun AND influential. She is passionate about learning and communicating and has spent time mentoring young women as they learn about life, relationships, how to define success, and leading small groups in discovering the transformational power of God's Word. She has also spoken to larger groups at retreats and special events in the U.S. and Europe. Jenni's guiding Scripture for years has been John 3:30 - "He must become greater, I must become less." - for its fundamental principle as well as for its masterful use of the semicolon. Her travel philosophy: "While I'm waiting to get to heaven, I'll go to Paris as often as I can!"
