Pure Gospel Ministries Real Life Story Journey

1. Pure Gospel Ministries Real Life Story Journey

2. Christian Testimony In the year of 2012, God strategically and divinely connected Pure Gospel Ministries with Step by Step Ministries. God ordained a meeting between myself and Jim Barbarossa, better known as The Shofar Man. I thought I was going to this meeting for the sole purpose of purchasing some Tallits, but God the Master planner and strategist had an extraordinary purpose much bigger than either of us knew at the time. Our church was hosting a One New Man conference, and I was led to invite Jim and Carla to attend.

3. They attended the conference, and a divine connection was instantly made between the two ministries.Jim invited my wife and myself to one of the Unity Gathering meetings that he and Carla were facilitating. During this meeting, we were introduced to a new concept of believers in 5-fold ministries, working together without competition, personal gain, or agendas to evangelize the world. We were introduced to Step by Step Ministries, which was like no other ministry we had ever come in contact with.Jim exposed us to the Evangelism Training that God downloaded to him and Carla. We were told in these meetings that every believer has a testimony that should be written and shared for the glory of God. We were given free evangelisms tools such as Real Life Stories Volumes 1 and 2. Email : jimbarbarossa7@gmail.com Website : reallifestoriesbooks.com

4. We were strongly encouraged to pray over and distribute these books as we go about our daily lives.  After attending several meetings, Jim asked my wife and I to write our stories to be included in Real Life Stories Volume 3. I immediately wrote mine, but my wife was reluctant and took a while. My wife hesitated because she didn’t think her testimony was significant. This was a big step for both of us.Being a part of Real Life Stories Volume 3 was such a blessing and gave a spiritual sense of accomplishment. We enjoyed giving out books that conveyed the transforming power of God that is available to everyone. Jim and Carla consistently attended services at PGM and taught the congregation this newfound way of Evangelizing. They later encouraged and challenged the members to submit their testimonies. As a result, Real Life Stories Volume 5 was birthed.  The real work was just beginning.Now came the task of encouraging the members to get out of their comfort zones, press beyond fear, go to total strangers, and give them the books. Jim and Carla asked if they could facilitate meetings at PGM to instruct and encourage us to evangelize through passing out Real Life Stories Volume 5.

5. We started the meetings. We have since then distributed over 35,000 books. We have taken cases of books and displays to the cleaners, car repair shops, fitness clubs, liquor stores, gas stations, and men’s and women’s shelters. We even have a display on the front desk of Gary’s City Hall. We are so grateful to God for uniting us with Step by Step Ministries. God has taken our ministry to a whole different level. We know that God is pleased with our efforts, and we will continue to fulfill the call of the Great Commission. We strongly encourage you to do the same. God doesn’t need a whole lot of people to fulfill his will. He just needs a group of committed people who have a mind to WORK!!! Email : jimbarbarossa7@gmail.com Website : reallifestoriesbooks.com
