Dick Hardy

I'm a pretty nice guy who loves the church. Pastors are some of the finest people on the planet and I love to be a resource to them. My consulting firm, The Hardy Group has the tag line, Everything But Preaching. That's what I do - help pastors with everything but preaching.

I've been married to a drop-dead gorgeous redhead for 33 years. She thinks I'm funny - doesn't say much about my good looks! I'm blessed with two adult children, Jonathan and Erin. They married Ashley and Caleb and that makes for a great family. No grandkids yet. What's up with that?

President McKinley (1897-1901) is my 7th cousin two times removed and Kurt Warner and I both graduated from the University of Northern Iowa...a couple of years apart. I was born and raised in Sioux City, Iowa and still think that is a cool town.

I had a great time writing my first book, 27 Tough Questions Pastors Ask. Hope you like it. Looking forward to my second!
