Testimonials Evangelism Equipping

Over the years I have read several books on personal evangelism. [Serving in His Court] is the best one I have seen. The writer uses real life stories and explains that evangelism is a ‘process’ that often takes a lot of time. It addresses the opposition we face and why it’s important to understand what we are up against. Chapter four talks about the equipment needed for sharing our faith. The standard operating equipment (SOE) consists of three important things you will need to know. The author makes it clear that we need real help if the good news is going to be given to others effectively. Further you will be challenged to ask yourself how passionate you are for the wellbeing and future of others. You will discover effective methods to overcome fear and realize witnessing conversations come from God. Further it also describes the importance of using questions and gives you 10 examples of conversation starters. If you desire to be a part of making a difference for eternity I would strongly encourage you to pick up a copy.

I appreciate the informal and discussion-oriented atmosphere [of the evangelism class]. I have spent a lot of time worrying that I wasn’t doing enough of the right things. This class really reminded me that I was forgetting to rest and trust the Lord to do His work through me. Thanks Larry!

We have been instructed and challenged, both by your information and your wisdom, as God has revealed so many new truths to us through your words. Thank you for serving God in such a tangible and faithful way. Thank you for sharing your insights and God’s truth with us.

I get [weekly devotionals] from Larry Stamm, a friend of mine in Johnson City, a Jewish man who years ago came to faith in Christ and has spent his life since then telling Jews about Jesus, telling both groups about what they have in common and how they differ, and telling Christians how to witness to Jews. He’s a man of prayer. In addition to the very useful newsletters, we’re blessed by his promptness in responding to specific requests with good insights, useful resources in print and very useful links, especially most recently about our relative becoming a Muslim.

Larry’s personalized attention [with one-on-one evangelism coaching] really drove home how important “relational” ministry is!

Larry’s personalized evangelism coaching helps to calm fears, affirm witnessing, and sharpen tools when joining with God in witnessing. We left our personalized coaching session more confident in joining with the Holy Spirit and the Lord’s work in evangelizing.

In ‘ReGeneration Discipleship/Recovery in Christ’ we are constantly checking ourselves on keeping people focused on Christ’s power and focusing on him…on his words…on his affirmations of who we are in him. Larry’s “Faith Based Conversations” pamphlet is a resource we have used to help get the conversation going and provide helpful points on being effective for Christ.  Larry has a passion for helping others find Christ and this pamphlet gives us some very important lessons bursting with wisdom from that passion!!

Appreciate the Faith Based Conversations brochure – very useful! Thanks for all you do in Christ’s name and for helping others confidently discuss the Gospel.

Our church spent four weeks with Larry [as he led the Personal Evangelism Primer], and he is the real deal. Our pumps were primed to practically share the Gospel.

As a pastor, [Serving in His Court] is easily one of the best books on personal evangelism I have ever read. As a believer who struggles just like everyone else in comfortably sharing your faith, it is an absolute must. Both the author’s experience as a coach, and the heart that he has for God, His Kingdom, His Church and the world all come through in encouraging and challenging ways. The discussion of why we need the Gospel is worth the price of the book by itself! If you want a great book to use in a small group, or just want to be encouraged and coached in your own witness, you won’t find a better book than this. Highly recommended!

I’ve read many books on evangelism. I’ve been through the training classes and gone to seminars. Then I read [Serving in His Court] and was blown away. It is full of practical tips but not preachy. It is Gospel centered, theologically well-written, and reaches people where they are. Drawn from his years of evangelistic ministry and life experiences one cannot help but wonder if all tennis coaches are like the author. Simple yet powerful with examples that people can relate to, that I related to in my own life. This tool is well suited for all walks of life and should be bought, used, and re-used. Get yours today; you will not be disappointed.

We truly enjoyed every minute of your teaching this weekend. Thank you so much for your dedication and passion for evangelism and for teaching us how to be intentional, relational and available for His kingdom and for His glory. We can’t wait to do it again! I highly recommend Larry Stamm’s evangelism class. A must do for every Christian!
