About Ready to Tell Ministries

What is Ready to Tell Ministries?

Ready to Tell Ministries is 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 to help fill God's house with new believers.

Who is Grant Reed?

Grant Reed is 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 experience as a resident pastor, worship pastor, and interim pastor.

What is your ministry's biblical foundation?

Our ministry is built on 1 Peter 3:15: "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." We also draw inspiration from Luke 14:23 about compelling people to come in so God's house may be filled.

Services and Approach

What services do you offer churches?

We provide:

• Evangelistic preaching with clear Gospel presentation

• Personal evangelism training workshops

• Outreach event support and planning

• Revival meetings (3-5 day campaigns)

• Follow-up resources for new believers

• Community engagement strategies

How is your evangelism approach different?

Our methodology emphasizes preparation over performance, gentleness over confrontation, natural conversation over forced evangelism, and church partnership over independent ministry. We focus on creating curiosity rather than defensiveness through grace-centered approaches.

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 essential Gospel messages that unite all true believers while respecting denominational distinctives.

What is "The Heaven Statement" method?

"The Heaven Statement" is our signature evangelism training method that teaches one simple statement to create curiosity instead of defensiveness in conversations about faith. This approach is detailed in Grant's upcoming book and forms the foundation of our training workshops.

Scheduling and Logistics

How far in advance should we book?

We recommend booking 2-3 months in advance for optimal preparation and scheduling. This allows time for proper planning, promotion, and spiritual preparation within your congregation.

Where do you travel for ministry?

Our primary service area is within three hours of Firestone, Colorado (80504), but we welcome regional, national, and international opportunities. We prefer weekdays and Sundays and typically limit ourselves to a maximum of two events per month.

What are your fees?

We use a sliding scale based on church size:

• Small Churches (under 75 attendance): $800-1,200 + travel expenses

• Medium Churches (75-150 attendance): $1,200-1,800 + travel expenses

• Large Churches (150+ attendance): $1,800-2,500 + travel expenses

Travel expenses include airfare, mileage at IRS rates, lodging, and meals at $35/day.

What technical requirements do you need?

We need a sound system with headset microphone (preferred) or lavalier, a podium or speaking platform, and printed counseling materials (we provide templates).

Ministry Philosophy and Results

How do you measure ministry success?

We value authentic decisions for Christ without pressure, baptisms following evangelistic events, developing church partnerships with ongoing evangelistic culture, and believers gaining confidence in natural faith sharing.

What accountability structure do you have?

Grant serves under pastoral oversight of White Fields Calvary Chapel in Longmont, Colorado. The ministry maintains transparency in finances, adheres to biblical standards of conduct, and welcomes accountability from church leadership partners.

Can you provide references?

Yes, we provide contact information for recent church partnerships and pastoral references upon request. We encourage thorough vetting and gladly connect you with those who can speak to our ministry effectiveness.

What follow-up support do you provide?

We offer comprehensive new believer welcome packets, church counselor training guides, pastor follow-up checklists for 24-hour, one-week, and one-month intervals, and integration materials connecting new believers with existing church discipleship programs.

Practical Questions

What if we need to cancel an event?

Our cancellation policy varies by timeline:

• 60+ days advance: No fee, reschedule when possible

• 30-60 days: 25% of agreed compensation

• 7-30 days: 50% of agreed compensation

• Less than 7 days: Full compensation (emergency exceptions considered)

How do you customize your approach for different churches?

During initial consultation, we discuss your church's specific evangelistic goals, community context, audience demographics, and desired outcomes. This allows us to tailor both message presentation and event format to best serve your congregation.

Do you provide training for our church members?

Yes, we offer interactive workshops on natural evangelism approaches, including "The Heaven Statement" methodology, practical role-playing exercises, take-home resources, and follow-up support to build confidence in faith sharing.

What happens during the initial consultation?

Our initial conversation covers your church's evangelistic goals, event format and timeline, audience demographics, technical setup needs, detailed scheduling, appropriate compensation structure, theological questions, and success metrics.

Getting Started

How do we contact you?

What's the next step after contacting you?

After initial contact, we'll schedule a conversation to discuss your church's specific evangelistic goals, plan together for meaningful ministry partnership, and develop a strategy to impact your community through effective Gospel outreach.

Are you available for international ministry?

Yes, while our primary service area is within three hours of Firestone, Colorado, we welcome regional, national, and international ministry opportunities when scheduling and logistics allow.

Do you work with small churches?

Absolutely. Our sliding scale compensation structure ensures church size doesn't prevent partnership. We believe every church deserves access to evangelistic ministry and support, regardless of size or budget constraints.
