What leaders in the body of Christ are saying
about Word Watch Ministry

“I want to recommend Tom Grossman as one who can be a valuable resource in seeing a prayer ministry flourish in your church. Even if you already have an effective prayer ministry or have none going at this time, I believe Tom can help renew, re-envisionize, and equip your congregation in such a way as to bring life giving revival. Tom successfully led Shady Grove Church’s All Nation’s House of Prayer for many years, for which I am grateful. I believe he has a proven calling, an anointing, and a track record that shows that God’s hand is with him.”

-Olen Griffing, Senior Pastor, Shady Grove Church, Grand Prairie TX. Pastor Olen has served as a pastor to other pastors in the DFW Region and beyond for over 30 years!

“I recommend Word Watch Ministry to any local church or ministry that has a desire to start enjoyable Bible-   based prayer. I just cannot point to any other ministry that I believe would serve you better. I have watched  Tom lead corporate prayer meetings, conferences and workshops at our church and prayer ministry during our 20 + year relationship. When Tom teaches on prayer, people really connect with the Lord in a fresh, dynamic way, their hunger for God increases and their lives change!”

Gary Benjamin, former Senior Pastor, Shady Grove Church, Grand Prairie TX. Gary now serves in international missions in the Middle-East and Europe.

“I am excited to recommend Tom Grossman and Word Watch Ministry. Not only have I watched Tom grow in his calling and gifting as a leader in the prayer movement during the past decade – but he serves the Bride with love and humility. Tom is an amazing equipper, a solid teacher and an able minister to the body of Christ. I would strongly recommend that you give Tom and his team an opportunity to teach and equip your congregation for deep, sustaining prayer.”

Norm Frederick, 20 years senior leadership team Shady Grove Church, founding director of All Nations House of Prayer, now serving at Gateways Beyond International in Cyprus.

”I recommend Tom Grossman and Word Watch Ministry to your church. After a house of prayer has been established in your region like ANHOP has, it is needed for the area churches to receive the message and pursue their own unique expression of the house of prayer. This can happen through encounter-based prayer! Tom is taking this message of encounter-based prayer in your region to the next logical step. I pray that you might become more than just a congregation with a prayer ministry, but that encounter-based prayer would become the core identity of your church. My prayer is for you to open your doors to this vision, message and training to see both individual and corporate heart transformation in this hour.”

Bob Sorge, Oasis House Ministries – Author and Conference Speaker, Former Senior Pastor and Worship Leader

“Tom and his family joined our ministry and quickly became one of the dearest friends I have ever had and one fo the most effective leaders I have seen in the global prayer movement. He came with a wealth of experience, having already led a successful house of prayer. What impressed me most was his deep hunger to know the Lord as a friend and to see the Church made ready for His appearing. I highly recommend Tom to any pastor or leader seeking to establish encounter-based prayer in their local congreation or ministry. Tom is more than a good teacher, speaker and equipper; he is one who has consistently lived out what he preaches.”

Marvin Adams has served as Senior Pastor of River Church in Chicago for 8 years, helped pioneer the Forerunner Music Academy for Mike Bickle in Kansas City and now directs the Wabash Valley House of Prayer in Indiana.

“I would like to highly recommend the Word Watch Ministry to any leader who desires to move their congregation and their own hearts personally into a deeper and more intimate life of worship and prayer. We have found Word Watch Ministry to be fully trustworthy and truly anointed and led by the Spirit of God.”

Kirk L. Zehnder, Pastor, The Fellowship at Weatherford TX. Kirk also serves as an advisor to Word Watch Ministry and had a key role in developing the Word-Watch.

“As an ordained minister, of course, I know my theology, God’s Word, and I teach it on a regular basis…Through their weaving together Scripture, song and supplication, we realized how much we needed prayer, and especially their emphasis on communion with God. I am smitten by the tender, wooing presence of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords…These Word Watch Ministry guys have reminded me that knowledge will someday pass away – but what will remain, the greatest of these, is love. They had no agenda to push. Their attitude was this: we want to lead you into the presence of God and a deeper, more intimate connection with Christ through His love. Words can’t describe the impact they have had.”

Scott S., Director (The name of this international mission agency is omitted for safety reasons.)

“As a pastor of a local church with a very focused prayer ministry, we developed a relationship with Tom Grossman and his Word Watch Ministry team to help us deepen and broaden our understanding of intimacy with God, personal ministry and David’s Tabernacle. Tom’s team led an extended training school that really established team unity, vision and deeper understanding of the word. The teaching was solid, their team really served us and our vision. This is a friendship that continues to grow.”
