Tripp and Megan Almon
Tripp and Megan Almon are a husband-and-wife team who serve with Stand to Reason — Tripp as Outpost Coordinator and speaker, and Megan as a speaker specializing in pro-life apologetics, bioethics, and aesthetics. Married since 2003, the Almons live in Colorado with their two children, Neely and Rogan, and frequently travel together to equip Christians across the country to think clearly, live faithfully, and stand graciously for truth. Together, Tripp and Megan bring a unique blend of clarity, compassion, and conviction to their teaching. Whether on stage or in small-group settings, they love challenging audiences to think deeply and live boldly for the cause of Christ.
Stand to Reason
Stand to Reason trains Christians to think more clearly about their faith and to make an even-handed, incisive, yet gracious defense for classical Christianity and classical Christian values in the public square.

“Tripp and Megan Almon offer a unique combination of deep and thoughtful insight on the most pressing issues of our day, grounded in sound theology and informed philosophy, and delivered in an engaging—even entertaining—way. They know how to communicate to an audience, they have important things to say, and they say it with flair. I’d highly recommend them to any church, university setting, or group that wants to better understand how to faithfully navigate contemporary culture as a Christian.”
Paul M. Gould, Professor of Philosophy at Palm Beach Atlantic University and author of Cultural Apologetics
Tripp and Megan Almon are exactly who our culture need in this critical moment: Wise, winsome and effective ambassadors of the Christian worldview. I have personally seen them connect with audiences on the most difficult and important topics facing Christians. If you’re looking for someone who can help your church or group navigate issues like the exclusivity of Jesus, the problem of evil, the sanctity of life, the importance of marriage, or the role of Biblical identity, no one does it better than Tripp and Megan.”

“Tripp and Megan Almon have been a huge blessing in all the programs we’ve done at Summit Ministries. They’re a powerful duo—a speaking team whose lives back up the truth of their message. They’re energetic, compelling, biblically-focused, and so creative that it leaves me smiling when I think about it.”

“I’d have to say that Megan is a first-rank communicator. Not only does she carry a solid knowledge base in ethics, philosophy, theology, Bible, and science, but she can integrate it all and communicate it all like a pro. On top of that she has a wonderful stage presence — authentic and exciting — and knows how to read an audience. I found her talks very interesting and engaging, and at the same time sensitive and full of life. She has what it takes to communicate pro-life issues and apologetics to everyone from junior high students to university academics. She is one of the best big-platform speakers I’ve seen in a long time.”

“Megan is a polished and professional presenter and her presentation had quite an impact on our school. I will try to give some sense of just how powerful and on target her presentation was. First the comments. Many students said it was the best presentation we had offered in their four years at Divine Child. Teachers complemented me on bringing in such a polished and effective speaker. My principal said that in his fourteen years of being in Catholic education it was the best he had seen. Students were particularly impressed by the way Megan presented a logical case for the pro-life position. Many students said it “just made sense to them.” after hearing her speak. Students also liked the fact that she strongly disagreed with the pro-choice position without demonizing those who might hold it. She reminded the students several times that there are real human beings, hurting human beings, on all sides of the issue. Megan even reached some of our most aloof students whose favorite answer is usually the opposite of whatever the Church teaches. After presenting for two hours straight Megan then took questions from a group of students who stayed behind. The ease with which she answered these students questions, some of which were very difficult, and the deep level of knowledge that she displayed while doing so was very impressive. Some people are good at delivering a presentation, others at responding on the fly. There are very few people who can do both really well. Megan is one of those. Megan even spent time in some of our classrooms later in the day. This was really an unexpected bonus. It was also very gracious of her after an already long day. I would tell anyone who is thinking of inviting Megan into their school to do it. Don’t hesitate. Get her on your calendar as soon as you can. It will be one of the best decisions you will make this year. You will get a professional, lively, smart presentation. You will get a presenter who is fluent in logic, philosophy, and science when presenting the case for life but also one who always keeps Christ unambiguously at the center. We were blessed to be able to get Megan Almon to speak to our school.”

“Megan did an excellent job. She connected with our students and held their attention. Chapel is sometimes a tough gig because the students are required to be there. She kept their attention. Her approach to the difficult subject was thoughtful and challenging. She did not use an emotional approach to the subject of abortion. She used a very logical, thoughtful, and challenging approach which I really liked. I was somewhat nervous about the video. At first I did not want her to show it because I was afraid of a negative response. We talked and after she explained how she was going to use it, I agreed to let her show it. IT worked out fine and I did not receive any negative response from the video. Megan told me that there were other speakers who travel and speak on the subject of life. I want to use someone next year who speaks from the same perspective as Megan. I was very pleased and want to stay in touvh as she moves west….
Thanks for all you do to educate students on this subject.”

“Our thanks to Megan, you, and Life Training Institute! I thought the presentation was terrific! She engaged with students wonderfully with down-to-earth explanation of sophisticated and often emotionally-charged ideas, made accessible through lively story-telling, clear examples, compelling logic, and gentle humor. Megan was gracious in her delivery, respectful of the time constraints that shaped the event, and very kind to make herself available after the presentation to answer individual questions. Her tone was refreshing, sincere, winning. I’m sure you must be very proud of her ministry!”

“Megan was terrific. She held the students’ attention throughout the presentation and really was an excellent speaker. Attached are a couple of pictures. She had a really good after talk session with several students. They sensed her knowledge and understanding of the subject and they were truly intrigued. “
