Witnesses and
Testimonies Wanted!
Please consider
writing your testimony for the next Lighthouse Book of
Real Life Stories.
To be a part of this
book you must agree to carry 2 books in hand every day and use them to give to
lost people in your community as the Holy Spirit directs you . 2 books a day
would be about 720 books a year.
The subtitle of the
book is “Life Has Many Storms.” Due Date is NOW! Release form
is attached . Testimony will not be accepted without release form.
Guidelines to Help You
to Write Your Story/Testimony for a 3-Fold Flyer or Book.
Part 1 - Describe what
your life was like before coming to the Lord.
Part 2 - Tell how you
came to the Lord.
Part 3 - Describe what
your life is like now.
Describe the changes
between part 1 and part 3. Brag on God and what He has done for you!
Tell your story in the
order that it happened. Do not bounce around from the present to the past. Use
your age to help you tell the story. Start sharing your life from say age 3 to
10, then tell some things from age 11 to 20, then 20 to 30, etc.
Do not insert
scripture in your story. It is ok to put a favorite verse at the end that
pertains to salvation. Just tell your story. Keep it simple. Do not thank
God at the end of every sentence. Just tell your story. Do not try to teach in
your story. Just tell your story. It is ok to add 1 or 2 of your favorite
scriptures near the end of your story.
Paint a picture with
your words!
∙Finish by signing
your testimony with your first name.
∙Place your cell phone
number and email address at the end of story.
Please use a
phone and email address that will remain active for many, many years ahead.( 90
% of the people that respond to the books call or text. I have prayed several
people through suicide) A story without a phone number serves no purpose! We
all need to learn to be available and minister to hurting
people! We will also add the church or ministry contact info,
please provide it. (Name, address, phone number, text number, email
address.) But this does not replace the personal contact info!
Do not
worry about a title. We will take care of it.
Do not talk in
Christian language. Talk or write in plain simple English. Remember your
audience is a lost soul. Your purpose in writing this is to reach lost souls.
Do not preach! Do not teach! Do not share your pet doctrines! Simply share
what Jesus has done for you and will do for the reader.Did not push or slam any
denominations. Do not drop names of important people or places. Use only first
names if you refer to other people in your story.
The length of your
written testimony should be around 1000 to 1100 words.Along with your
testimony, fill out a “Release Form,” and send it back to us .You can request a
release form at this email jimbarbarossa7@gmail.com
For those who can do
so, please print the Release Form, complete it, scan it, and email it
back.

form, please send it to the following address:
