About Dennis Swanberg
America’s Minister of Encouragement
Dennis Swanberg, an encouraging speaker, comedian, and humorist, served the local church in pastoral ministry for 23 years. Then, in 1995, he took a leap of faith – stepping down as church pastor to step up to the microphone on stages and platforms all across America.
“The Swan” soon became “America’s Minister of Encouragement”, a job he takes seriously as he continues to speak to about 150 organizations, faith-based groups and corporations around the nation and the world every year. He has hosted two successful TV series, authored 9 books, and created over two dozen DVD/CD productions.
Dennis is a graduate of Baylor University where he majored in both Greek and Religion (1976). He earned both a Master of Divinity (1980) and a Doctor of Ministry (1986) at Southwestern Seminary, Ft. Worth, TX.
Dennis and his wife Lauree live in Granbury, Texas and have two grown sons, Chad and Dustin.
