2026 Breakout Session Leader
Ed Van Buskirk
Ed Van Buskirk has a corporate background in consulting and IT software. He founded If U Love Me in 2018 after a life-changing men’s retreat challenged him to reflect on his awareness and understanding of the Ten Commandments.
After prayerful reflection, Ed realized that the Ten Commandments are a wealth of wisdom given to us by a Loving God who only and always wants the very best for us. Following God’s call, he founded If U Love Me so others, who may have missed the greatness of the Commandments, could rediscover them, and the God who wrote them by His very hand, in a new light.
In his talks at parishes, retreats, and conferences, Ed brings the Commandments to life through teachings and stories that demonstrate the joy and freedom of the Commandments.
“Every day, as I explore something new about God and His Commandments,” said Ed, “I discover even more of the richness of the Ten Commandments and how they are refreshing in their simplicity and amazing in their completeness for living a joy-filled life.”
