Unsolicited Recommendation Letter from Salvation Army. Through her unique combination of honesty and hard-hitting humor—delivered with her trademark in-your-face style—Donna is on a mission to shock the complacency out of contemporary Christians. "God called me to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable. That's exactly what I do!" After listening to Donna Partow, audience members are frequently heard saying "I don't think I'll ever recover from this!" and "If God can use a nut like her, sign me up!" Patsy Clairmont described her as "a stick of dynamite" and Carol Kent noted "Donna's testimony will challenge the complacent and connect with the seeker. With vivid illustrations, substantive content, and outstanding applications, she moves her audiences to make choices that reflect integrity, spiritual wisdom and personal growth. I highly recommend her!" Her international travel has included Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe, North, Central and South America, along with islands around the world (Donna has a special love for Islanders!). If you'd like to plan a women's conference in Antarctica, contact her immediately. She's itching to get to her seventh continent and wants to see penguins marching live. A summa cum laude graduate of Rutgers University, Partow also attended the University of Pennsylvania, one of America's Ivy League schools. She has been a popular guest on hundreds of radio and TV shows, including Focus on the Family, James Robison and regional Good Morning America programs. She and her family reside in Arizona.
