It’s customary for the hosting church or ministry to assume responsibility for travel, hotel, and food costs. Groups often invite Dave’s wife, Kimm, a gesture that is deeply appreciated but not often possible.
The speaker fees are as follows:
- Full conference or retreat (3–4 messages and Q & A) – $3500. (the fee could be greater if the distance from SW Florida is further (west of the Mississippi, or anywhere that may require more travel days as a buffer).
- Individual marriage message(s) – email Dave (dave@revdaveharvey.com) for specific pricing details.
