ToolsForMinistry.net is a resource site where a variety of tools and teaching aids for Christian ministry are made available. Many church leaders, Bible teachers, and Christian servants are always in search of Christ-centered materials that will enhance their efforts to lead, teach, and serve. Finding good Bible curriculum for classes and discussion materials for small groups is not always easy. Some individuals are simply in search of study tools that will increase their Bible knowledge and aid in personal spiritual growth and development. Meeting such needs is the goal and purpose of Tools For Ministry.

In all the tools and materials that we make available, a priority is to be Bible-based and Christ-centered. Our intent is to build a user-friendly site where Christian leaders, teachers, and servants can find practical tools that will sharpen their skills or aid them in training others for various Christian ministries. We would like for this to be an “equipping place” for servants of Jesus Christ.

In his more than 40 years of ministry within the local church, Dr. Garmon has prepared numerous ministry tools and teaching aids that can be effectively used by others. At the present time, he is re-working many tools that have already been tested and tried. Also, he is writing new Bible curriculum and preparing ministry tools that can serve the needs of local churches and mission-minded individuals. Please check back often as new items are added.
