About Grant Reed
Grant Reed is an evangelist, author, and ministry trainer dedicated to equipping believers to share their faith with confidence and grace — helping churches overcome the modern evangelism crisis through practical, research-backed training.
"Go out to the roads and country lanes and compel them to come in, so that my house may be filled."Luke 14:23
Grant's calling was confirmed during Air Force Basic Training in September 1994, when this verse became his life verse. Watching fellow airmen live without God taught him that simply "going out" isn't enough — we have to open our mouths and speak a compelling message. With over 8 billion people on earth, Grant believes many would still believe the Gospel, given the chance to hear it clearly.

Personal Life
Originally from northern Indiana and north-central Texas, Grant came to Colorado for a seven-week program with Focus on the Family and never left. He's married with two children, and his family fully supports the calling God has placed on his life.
He's a member of White Fields Calvary Chapel in Longmont, Colorado, under Pastor Nick Cady's leadership. Outside ministry, he's happiest hiking, smoking a brisket, or camping with his family.
