Frequently Asked Questions
Most of what pastors ask us falls into a handful of questions. Here they are, answered plainly. If yours isn't here, call or text and we'll talk it through.
The Ministry
What is Ready to Tell Ministries?
A 1 Peter 3:15 evangelistic ministry led by Grant Reed, focused on equipping churches and believers to reach their communities with the gospel. We provide evangelistic preaching, personal evangelism training, and revival services.
Who is Grant Reed?
An ordained minister with a Master of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and over 200 hours of training from the Billy Graham School of Evangelism. He serves under pastoral oversight at White Fields Calvary Chapel in Longmont, Colorado, and has served as a resident pastor, worship pastor, and interim pastor.
What is the ministry's biblical foundation?
"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." — 1 Peter 3:15
We also draw from Luke 14:23 — compelling people to come in, so that God's house may be filled.
What We Offer
What services do you offer churches?
- Evangelistic preaching with clear gospel presentation
- Personal evangelism training workshops
- Outreach event support and planning
- Revival meetings, three to five days
- Follow-up resources for new believers
- Community engagement strategies
How is your approach different?
Preparation over performance. Gentleness over confrontation. Natural conversation over forced evangelism. Church partnership over independent ministry.
The aim is to create curiosity rather than defensiveness.
Do you work with all denominations?
Yes. We partner with Bible-believing churches across denominational lines who share a heart for evangelism and gospel clarity. We focus on the essentials that unite believers while respecting denominational distinctives.
Do you train our church members, or just preach?
Both. We offer interactive workshops on natural evangelism, including "The Heaven Statement" method, practical role-play, take-home resources, and follow-up support to build confidence in faith sharing.
Do you work with small churches?
Yes. Every church deserves access to evangelistic ministry and support, regardless of size or budget.
Accountability
What accountability structure do you have?
Grant serves under the pastoral oversight of White Fields Calvary Chapel in Longmont, Colorado. The ministry maintains financial transparency, adheres to biblical standards of conduct, and welcomes accountability from partnering church leadership.
Can you provide references?
Yes. We provide contact information for recent church partnerships and pastoral references on request, and we encourage thorough vetting.
How do you measure success?
Authentic decisions for Christ without pressure. Baptisms following evangelistic events. Churches developing an ongoing evangelistic culture. Believers gaining confidence in sharing their faith naturally.
What follow-up support do you provide?
New believer welcome packets, church counselor training guides, pastor follow-up checklists at twenty-four hours, one week, and one month, and materials for connecting new believers into your existing discipleship.
Booking and Logistics
How far in advance should we book?
Two to three months. That allows time for planning, promotion, and spiritual preparation within your congregation.
Where do you travel?
Our primary service area is within three hours of Firestone, Colorado. We welcome regional, national, and international opportunities when scheduling allows. We prefer weekdays and Sundays, and typically limit ourselves to two events per month.
What technical setup do you need?
A sound system with a headset microphone, or a lavalier. A podium or speaking platform. Printed counseling materials — we provide the templates.
What happens in the initial consultation?
We talk through your church's evangelistic goals, event format and timeline, audience, technical needs, scheduling, compensation, theological questions, and what success would look like for you.
How do you tailor this to our church?
That consultation shapes everything. Your goals, your community context, your congregation — both the message and the format are built around what will actually serve your people.
What if we need to cancel?
- 60+ days out
- No fee. We reschedule when possible.
- 30–60 days
- 25% of agreed compensation
- 7–30 days
- 50% of agreed compensation
- Under 7 days
- Full compensation
Emergencies are handled case by case. We'd rather talk than enforce a policy.
