 Comments from Ken's past ministry
(24 years ago in Atlanta):Dear Mr. Needham, I was recently leading my men's small group Bible study through Colossians 1 when I remembered a week of meetings where I heard you preach from the same text. I dug through my old tapes and found the sermons, dated April 1983. I would have been a young teenager at the time, but I remembered the sermons as the best I had ever heard on the text. I shared some of the tapes and wove pieces of them through my lesson. I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know that 24 years later a sermon preached one evening in Atlanta was still being used, was bearing fruit, and was a blessing to other Christians. Unfortunately, the cassette tapes are falling apart and I need to try to get them transferred to a digital media so that they will continue to be a blessing going forward. I was happy to find you on the web and to see that you are still preaching the Word of God. Thank you for your ministry. |

Ken was at our church and in my home for a small
group meeting – absolutely wonderful and so challenging! What a blessing he
was to us and how great to see how God has gifted him and how he is using
those gifts! Loved the story about the girl on the plane with red & green
hair as he was teaching on the effect and power of the Holy Spirit in our
lives. |

Comments from Ken's past ministry at Crusaders
Camp: "How the years pass. I was reading Hebrews this morning and your teaching from Nefyn camp years ago came back to me so I thought I'd look you up. I still remember a lot of what you said - you did Hosea at the same camp! Thanks so much for your teaching and friendship all those years ago - I am constantly thankful for the richness of the spiritual upbringing I had at Crusaders." |

Comments from a principal at a large Christian High School: "Thank you again for a wonderfully challenging week of chapels at Westminster. The Lord has gifted you in marvelous ways and we are so thankful to Him that you are so willing and eager to share those gifts in the preaching of the good news. I particularly love your approach to all of life - seeing the hand and providence of God in creation and in all things. What a blessing it was to hear about the honey bees, the edelweiss, and all the other wonderful stories that point us to the truth of God's Word. I know that the Spirit was at work among our students and faculty, and that great good will come as the result of your time with us." |

Comments from parents of a Senior High School Student in one of Ken's
recent classes: "She was so inspired by Ken's presentation to their class she spent quite a bit of time discussing it. . . She says he is her favorite speaker EVER! We both love that he is a man about the world who prays fervently and reads Gods word daily. It is definitely someone to respect and listen to because of his own walk with God and the wisdom and insight he can share. |
