Pastor Scott Lewis, Pentecostals of West Houston, Houston, TX 

It is with the greatest pleasure that I write this brief but enthusiastic endorsement of the ministry of Ken and Julie Cook. This couple made an extremely positive and long-lasting impact upon our church and our community.

Brother and Sister Cook are true evangelists, in every sense. His preaching is anointed and power-packed, and each night of our revival our altars were filled with new, hungry souls. But equally important, Bro. and Sis. Cook spent many long hours with our own congregation. First, teaching them the fundamentals of outreach and personal evangelism. Secondly, each day the Cooks and members of our local church were active in our community, reaching out to the lost and hurting in our area. This aspect of the Cooks ministry revolutionized our church, and gave each member a renewed burden for souls. Their ministry not only gives your constituency powerful training, but also the wherewithal to set record breaking crowds and having a long lasting residual effect on your local congregation.

The Cooks simply seek the opportunity to help your church reach the lost in your city, and will undoubtedly transfer their burden for souls into the hearts and lives of each of your members. I whole-heartedly and without reservation can recommend this God-called couple. May God richly bless the ministry of Ken and Julie Cook.

How many times can a person use awesome, fantastic, and life changing before it begins to lose its effect. It would require me to push the limit just to begin to tell you what effect Evangelist Ken Cook had on the Church body, myself, and our local community.

His ministry was the missing piece of the puzzle for our 2008 vision.

I am the Pastor of Cornerstone Worship Center in Fond du Lac, WI. We cast a vision at the beginning of 2008 to reach for the lost like never before. It was a vision that was caught quickly and easily by leadership and church staff, but it was Bro. Cook with his teaching, preaching, and demonstration that brought the whole church body on board.

I must say that Bro. Cook truly demonstrated what I have been teaching our people concerning the Apostolic outreach we read in the book of Acts. Everyday, Bro. Cook ministered no less than 12 to 14 hours each day in outreach to the community, training classes on lifestyle evangelism and burden for the lost, a class for substance abuse entitled “Lifeline”, and preaching that was inspiring as well as motivational.

We baptized people after every service.  On Sunday afternoon, Bro. Cook ministered in a service at our local prison facility and 9 people were baptized and 2 were filled with the baptism of the Holy Ghost. My Church Administrator said, ”Bro. Ken Cook certainly does raise the bar when it comes to Evangelists!”

My Assistant Pastor, Bro. Bruce Meadows made a statement to the Church that in 43 years of ministry, he had never experienced a revival like we were experiencing.

I want to extend my deepest thanks to Bro. Cook for truly demonstrating the role of Evangelist, and imparting to our people what Lifestyle Evangelism really means. We were disappointed that circumstances did not allow Sis. Cook to be with us during the revival, but we would like to thank her as well for “loaning” her husband to truly revive our Church and myself!

In His Service,

Pastor Dale Pace

In April of 2007, our church in Western Montana had an opportunity to host a soul winning conference, with Evangelist Ken Cook. Bro. Cook came and spent several days with the core group of our church, teaching us about soul-winning, personal evangelism techniques and principles, and passing the mantle of compassion and love for souls onto the church, and myself. It was an invaluable experience! I have always had a burden for the homeless, for the alcoholic, for the drug addict, and for others under similar circumstances.

Unfortunately, I either did not have the time, or I did not know where to start. Actually, to be candidly transparent, I was also scared to death.

When Bro. Cook came to Montana to help us develop the burden for soulwinning, the first place we visited was the homeless shelter. I remember walking in that facility with Bro. Cook and was awestruck as he sat down at the tables with these people, and simply began to love them through conversation and compassion. Since that time, God has opened doors for our church that would never have been opened. This would not have happened if someone like Ken Cook, who has literally been in the trenches, would not have come and imparted his burden and insight for soul winning to this pastor and this church.

The following month, we hosted a revival with Ken and Julie Cook. What a tremendous time we had throughout our time together. During this revival, we saw a multitude of drug users, alcoholics, homeless, and mentally distressed people come into our services and be touched by the power of God. Many were baptized, and filled with the Holy Ghost. No, it is not because they are “special,” although they hold a very special place in our lives. It is because they have a passion and burden to win souls into the Kingdom of God. They are truly anointed of God. I expressed to Bro. Cook that I have been in “church” all my life, and have yet to ever see an “evangelist” evangelize. I have never, in my church life, had an experience where an evangelist comes in and says, “Take me to where the drug problems are. Take me to where the alcoholics are.”

We actually spent some time with the Mayor of Missoula, Montana, expressing to him our burden – he believed in what he saw, and he provided us with good contact information.

Since this time, God has opened doors that have never been opened up. We are currently teaching ACTS classes, bible studies, and even preaching at this homeless shelter (on a weekly basis). In fact, we purchased our first 15 passenger van, and we are now in the process of looking for van #2. Since April 1, 2007, God has allowed over 140 new people to come through our church doors. We are in an unprecedented revival in this area! (God is opening up doors; we are walking through them.)

I give God all the glory and credit, but quite frankly, I must also give credit to Bro. Ken Cook for showing us what to do, how to reach these types of people, how to pray for them, how to deal with them, and most importantly, how to love them. I would highly recommend that any pastor or any church who is not afraid to get their hands dirty or who is not afraid of revival to contact Bro. Ken Cook and schedule a time for them to come to your town and reach the lost. They will make a difference!

The Cook’s recently published their first DVD called “The Lifeline.” I highly recommend that you purchase this DVD, and use it as a tool when reaching those addicted to drugs and alcohol. It may change their life. This DVD truly is a “revolutionary approach to personal evangelism.”

Our church believes in Bro. and Sis. Cook’s ministry so much that we have committed to sponsoring them on a monthly basis, very much like partners in missions. Their website, www.kenandjuliecook.com, contains a link to setting up a sponsorship. The Apostolic Pentecostal movement desperately needs people like the Cooks to continue working in the fields. The harvest truly is white, but the laborers are very few. Our church is Kingdom-minded – the Cooks are reaching souls for the Kingdom.

If, after reading this letter of recommendation, you have any questions or would like more information about how the Cook’s ministry has affected our lives and the church, please do not hesitate to call me at (406) 273-2036.

Rev. Cory Gangle

My name is Rev Anthony E Triona. I am the Pastor of the Jackson Apostolic Church, in Jackson, OH. I’ve been actively involved in the ministry for the past 18 years. I am currently involved as section 4 Youth Leader, and OH District JR Bible Quiz master. It is my distinct honor and privilege to "highly" recommend the ministry of Evangelist Ken & Julie Cook. If you have been planning on having a revival, or wanting to have a revival that will challenge, as well as change the hearts of the church and the sinner alike….. Let me tell you, and assure you that you do not have to worry any longer!

Evangelist Ken Cook is extremely sensitive to the leading, and direction of the Holy Spirit. His ministry is very anointed as God ministers and speaks through him using him as the oracle of God. It’s no wonder why the unction of the Holy Ghost is upon his ministry, because he is a man of prayer. I personally know that to be true, because they’ve been with us on numerous occassions. Bro Cook does not come with canned sermons already worn out, but he comes praying for a fresh Word from the Lord for your congregation, for your people, and the needs of the local assembly. In my opinion, that speaks volumes of this man's heart for doing the work of an evangelist, as God has so called, and ordained him to be.

During the day time, Bro & Sis Cook effortlessly lend their assistance to any project that the church is undertaking. They look for things they can do to help you and your church. (If you’re witnessing, canvassing, mowing, or cleaning, Ken and Julie will do all they can to help). They’ve been the only evangelist couple that I’ve ever had to go "out-of-their-way" on a consistent basis, to be such a blessing not only to myself, but the church, as well. Sis Cook is a very anointed & talented vocalist, and musician! She also, is a lady of prayer. She lends great support and help to Bro Cook. (I would like to say that she was such a blessing and help to my wife in many different ways).

I personally would recommend them to anyone wanting an Apostolic revival. In fact, Whatever kind of service you want—you want the Cook’s! If I can be of further assistance, Please feel free to contact me at your convenience. I would love to answer any questions you may have).

I have known Julie since she was an infant and Ken for three or four years. He is a good evangelist and a man of prayer. I cannot think of a greater quality. Julie compliments his ministry with her ability to sing and play with an anointing. They have ministered in our local assembly and our congregation is always excited about their presence. They are an exceptionally polite couple who bless those with whom they spend time. I recommend them!

It is with great confidence and pleasure that I recommend the evangelistic team of Ken and Julie Cook. They have been of immeasurable value in revival with Victory Tabernacle. We have seen people receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost and baptized in the wonderful name of Jesus. We have seen renewed commitment in members of our church family. What a true blessing they are to the kingdom.

Bro. Cook takes the breaking of the Bread of Life seriously and brings forth soulsearching messages that stirs both the church and sinners alike. Victory Tabernacle experiences revival today as a result of the ministry of this team. Sis. Cook sings and plays the piano and is a blessing to the congregation. I cannot say enough good things about Ken and Julie Cook. You will be enriched and encouraged when they are in your church.
