Drama Ministry - Dramatic Christian Ministries - Narrow Gate Theater - Testimonies

I just want to take a moment to let you know how much I appreciated your ministry for us on Sunday.  You were a blessing to the body, and it was great for me to hear the whole story told at once, and done in a creative way.  Simply reading that much scripture would have been difficult to do and maintain good communications skills.  However, doing it with the drama and your role playing of the figures presented the Word in a powerful way.You might also be interested to know that as I left you at the restaurant yesterday and I was driving home, I saw one of the men who had been in the early service on the side of the road at a stranger's house.  I did a u-turn, and spoke with him about another matter.  However, he affirmed again to me at that time what he had already said at the end of the service on Sunday morning.  It was so powerful for him to see the Nativity presented in a dramatic form.  He was very moved by it, and was expressing his gratitude that Cottonwood had had you come.  There were others, of course, but this fellow has made a serious commitment to Jesus during the past year, so the relationship he has with Christ is really coming alive for the first time.  The two of you made a real contribution to his spiritual growth.May God bless both of you in your labors, and make provision for you according to His riches in glory!                                                                                         Pastor Robert G. Smith, Cottonwood CF, Alamogordo, NM

THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR MINISTRY WITH US ON SUNDAY! May the Lord bless you.  I am hearing good things from everyone about the impact of the Sermon on the Mount and God's Grace and Israel's Place.  We forget the power of the word of God.  It is sharper than a two edged sword! Pastor Hugh, First Baptist Church, Grants, NM

Dear Mr. Cole, Thank you for blessing me the other night like you did. I know I haven't known you very long, but I love you. Thanks again, Blessings, Hannah (12)

Thank you, so much, for being used by God to influence those in this small body of believers.  I want to include here, that we went to another church where there were 5 other small churches like ours and the subject matter was the same.  Isn’t it great how the Holy Spirit works to help us to grow in our relationship with Christ. We appreciate you being available to God for service.
Love Pastor Joe and Judy Bryant, Grace Baptist Church, Alamagordo, NM

After seeing the Book of James presentation from Brother Dennis, I am calling for a media fast in our church in March. The message we recieved is to be spiritually purified. Pastor Tim Tyler, Christ Community Church, Roslindale, MI
----------------------
It has been such a blessing to have your ministry at our church. Your ability to bring God's Word alive is such a strong and passionate way to touch lives. His Word draws men. Your dramatic presentation and style expressed your emotions and feelings, as well as the characters. Immediately, you were able to engage the audience. When I think of theatrical performances, I immediately think that your supposed to get your socks knocked off. You, no doubt, are a gentle and humble man. Because of this, your ministry is successful. People see the Character and not the man portraying the character. That in itself is more powerful than "getting your sox's knocked off" by all the fluff! I felt like I was there in the crowd with His disciples, because the focus was on the Word! Thank you so much, and may the Lord continue to direct your ministry in every area. God bless you, your family and your ministry. - Henry & Kathy, Brewster, MA

Denny,
We just wanted to say thank you! We know what you do, you do for the Lord, not for personal thanks or recognition. But we still want to thank you.

Thank you for the magical way you bring God's Word to life. Thank you for being so willing to be used as His instrument. And thank you for standing up for the children of this world. In a time when so many are "me, me, me" and otherwise would push these children to the side without a second thought, you are willing to go out with God's Word and say "Look, look at them, this is what we are forgetting, God's precious children."

So thank you for opening eyes and hearts every where you go. We praise God that you came into our lives! You are in our prayers! Love, Rick & Julie Gillespie
Freedom Road Church, Springfield, OH

Dear Pastor Cole, I just wanted to let you know what I got out of the Spiritual Emphasis Week that you did at my school, Markoma. God touched me and let me know that I did not have a good attitude. By the end of the week, particularly the last service that we had, God told me that I had to choose to have a good attitude, and when I chose to do so he would be able to speak to me! Thank you so much for coming and I hope you will keep in touch. Susannah, Markoma Christian School, Iowa

I KNOW the Lord is using your ministry. My heart was rejoicing. Edna Fitzgerald, South Bend, IN.
