The Bald Guy?
So what’s the story behind the crazy bald white guy? And when did he lose his hair?
Christopher Hopper is an international motivational speaker, recording artist and author with nine record albums and two published books to his name. He travels extensively around the globe each year and serves as the Teen & College Pastor for New Life Christian Church in Watertown, NY. His numerous business and academic interests, from restaurateur to president of a private school, all stem from his desire to encourage young people to lead healthy and productive lives, serving as integral parts in their communities. His dream is to inspire his generation to greatness.
As a motivational speaker, Christopher’s heart is to serve the school’s leadership, faculty and families by first hearing their hearts for issues that need to be addressed within the community. There are no cookie-cutter speeches for him as each appearance is custom tailored to those specific, indigenous needs.
Christopher’s no-nonsense and direct approach to communicating with teens has won him audiences across the United States and Europe. Whether he’s daring students to dream big and overcome obstacles, confronting them on peer pressure, or speaking about bullying, to challenging them to live lives of emotional and sexual purity or to stay away from illegal substances, his engaging style and bigger-than-life personality will capture the focus of any student.
For districts wishing for Christopher to do more than just a General Assembly during school hours, Operation:HighLife is his after school high-impact event designed to promote alternatives to destructive “escapes” such as drugs, alcohol and premarital sex. These two-hour evening events, power-packed with free food, live music and giveaways, all center around giving hope to students through a positive relational context and developing their spiritual walk of faith.
If you would like further information and references on Christopher or Operation:HighLife, or if you would like to set up a consultation appointment with him and his team, please feel free to contact him.
As to the loss of hair, Christopher first noticed it was departing while standing in a convieniant store. He noticed some guy in the security camera TV monitors with a receeding hair line. “Poor guy…doesn’t even know he’s losing his hair.” Until Christopher realized it was himself on camera.
