About

---

 tolmáō (from tolma, "bold courage") – properly, to show daring courage necessary for a valid risk ("putting it all on the line"); courageously venture forward by putting fear behind and embracing the fruit that lies ahead for taking a necessary risk. 

The heart behind Tolmao Ministries is to equip and encourage the body of Christ to be intentional in greater availability to share the love of Jesus with people in our daily lives.  If there was ever a courageous venture that required us to take necessary risk, it is reaching the lost and sharing the gospel.

As followers of Jesus Christ, we are called to fulfill the great commission.  God has equipped each of us with spiritual gifts, talents, power and boldness to complete the assignment He has given us.  Sharing our faith and praying for people requires us to follow the bold example that Jesus gave us during His earthly ministry.    

God called me into greater availability for Him in August of 2016.  As I became more intentional about reaching those around me, I saw God move powerfully through the moving of the Holy Spirit, healing, the gifts of the Holy Spirit and many making decisions for Christ.  The experiences shared on this site are intended to remind us of the truth of scripture and how God expresses His radical love to those around us when we are simply available for Him to work in and through.

My hope is the testimonies you read will encourage you into greater availability for Jesus and to see the gifts, talents and anointing He has given you operate more frequently in your life.  Our life is but a vapor, let's endeavor to burn brightly for Him for the balance of our appointed days establishing His Kingdom on earth as it is in Heaven.

In His service,

John
