"Not unto us, not unto us, but to Your name give glory, because of Your mercy, because of Your truth."  - Psalm 115:1

"Pastor Jon, what a Spirit-filled morning at London Bridge Baptist Church at our last men's breakfast for 2020!!  Thank you for bringing a message that touched and moved the hearts of men this morning.  To see so many men kneeling at the foot of the Cross on a Saturday morning, surrendering their heart and confirming their commitment to be the Pastor of their home was a true "God Moment!"  We have men whose lives and families will be forever changed!"


- Tom Armbrister, Associate Pastor, London Bridge Baptist Church, Virginia Beach, VA



"We recently had Jon come and do a men’s conference at Hillside.  He did a phenomenal job where those who attended were brought closer to Christ through his dynamic teaching and personal experiences.  He addressed issues we all deal with on a daily basis.  If you are looking for a sincere servant to come and encourage the men in your church through God’s Word, I hope you will consider our brother Jon."


- Joe Santerelli, Senior Pastor, Hillside Community Baptist Church, Brooksville, FL



"Pastor Jon did an amazing job connecting with and encouraging our church. God used him in a mighty way to urge people to passionately pursue their relationship with Jesus, and to serve Him using their spiritual gifts.  Jon is a great communicator and encourager."


- Daniel Duncan, Senior Pastor Balm Baptist Church, Balm, FL



"Thank you Pastor Jon for the great 4 week workshop on 'Unlocking Intentional Biblical Discipleship.' You made it fun, informative, interactive, engaging, and with the importance of the how / why / where to disciple and much more.  The best workshop ever on discipleship for our great God.  Thanks for being a living example of what you teach."


- Hank Sytsma, GracePoint Church, Plant City, FL



"God moved through Pastor Jon in a powerful way at Temple Crest Baptist Church!  He gave us the pure milk of God's Word and we were challenged to be reading God's Word everyday!"


- Don Hassee, Senior Pastor Temple Crest Baptist Church, Tampa, FL



"Pastor Jon Couch with the leading of the Holy Spirit preached the Word of God.  These were God-led, Spirit-filled services. God moved over myself and my congregation in all three services.  We saw the Holiness of God, which brought us to a point of brokenness and the urgency that we need to be obedient to our Lord, and to go about God’s business not ours. What a blessing.  Thank you Pastor Jon, for being an instrument for the Lord."


- Mark Nunes, Senior Pastor Sheldon Road Baptist Church, Tampa, FL



"It was such a blessing to have brother Jon to speak at CMU 2017.  He spoke the unapologetic truth in the message that the Lord had given to him to speak to the men in attendance.  I would recommend brother Jon to speak at your next event.  He is such an encourager but most of all, he is a man who truly loves God.  I am honored that God allowed our paths to cross.


- Carl Shack, Jr., Founder Christian Men United, Lithia, FL

- Dan Reid, Senior Pastor Journey Church, Valrico, FL



"It is refreshing in this age of "apathetic and convenient" Christianity to find someone like Jon Couch who is passionate about the truth of God's word. This passion is clearly seen as he preaches the Word of God with Truth and Sincerity. God has used Jon to convict the people of Countryside Baptist Church to search God's word for deeper truths and inspire them to live as God desires them to live. His clarity and focus are rare today. He is truly a light shining brightly in a dark world. I strongly recommend Jon Couch to you as a person who will share God's Word."

"Jon Couch desires to encourage men to find their purpose and strength in our Lord. This Day Ministries commits to being relevant to speaking to men concerning their responsibilities, temptations, and challenges. Jon speaks passionately, honestly, and biblically to men on how to experience Godly victory in their lives and families. Jon loves men and our Lord in a way that inspires those he speaks to as well as those he lives with day to day to want more in their walk with Jesus. Jon's faith, humility, and authentic lifestyle will inspire your men. I recommend Jon as a man and a preacher for your church and your men's ministry."


- Gary Payne, Executive Pastor and Men's Ministry, Bell Shoals Baptist Church, Brandon, FL

- Chaplain Tim Borland (deceased), Jesus Only Way Ministries, Riverview, FL

Jon also has the spirit of Barnabas in that he is an amazing encourager. It is without reservation that I recommend Jon to any church or ministry."


- Kelly Green, Evangelist, Kelly Green Evangelistic Association, Tampa, FL
