Testimonials
Ministry is fraught with complexities, challenges, and heavy schedules. It is easy to feel fragmented and distracted and the need is for humble assistance and care. It is with this in mind that I recommend the special ministry of Mark Opseth and Ministry Outfitters.
Mark has a unique ministry and calling. His sensitive and humble style makes him a joy to work with and his vision to help those in ministry is a special niche in ministry. With so many pastors feeling overwhelmed and burnt out due to the intensity of contemporary ministry, Mark’s call extends hope and renewal for the local pastor.
~ Dr. Bill Kuhn, Hope Church
Recently Mark Opseth of Ministry Outfitters presented “The Welcoming Church” to our frontline ministry personnel and leaders. Mark exceeded my expectations for the two hour seminar. He was very articulate and engaging in his style, and the content was concise and to the point. Through his teaching, word pictures and role play activities, all those in attendance left with a relational and evangelistic conversational tool firmly embedded in their memories. I would highly recommend Mark Opseth to any church wanting to step up to the plate as Welcoming Church.
~ Pastor Brian Harris, Trinity E. Free Church
Over the years, I have attended several highly extensive evangelism and leadership training programs. For the most part they were expensive and soon forgotten. We had Mark Opseth of Ministry Outfitters come in with a leadership training that focused on connecting with church visitors. He taught us a method of reaching out to people which was far simpler, yet infinitely more effective than any other I had learned before. What made it so unforgettable was how he handed out the tools and soon had us practicing with them one on one.
In a matter of an hour or so, Mark activated a room of reserved and introverted people with powerful communication tools that I know will change the face of our church for the better. There was an excitement and a confidence instilled in us through the equipping ministry of Mark Opseth. I highly recommend him to any church looking to become more effective for the Kingdom of God!
