Mike Rayson brings a spiritual energy and depth that enables people to prayer, praise and worship with holy boldness and biblical integrity.  This ministry is divinely designed for the 21st century.  I commend it without reservation.

Rev Tom Albin - Dean, The Upper Room Chapel, Nashville TN (USA)

Mike’s testimony is as much as a blessing as his music. Mike is an authentic ‘Jesus lover and glory giver’!

Anne Graham Lotz. AnGel Ministries (daughter of Billy Graham)

Mike Rayson is that unique individual who can connect with youth in one moment and in the next, share a mature witness with senior citizens. His music and his message are lively and thoughtful and express the deep faith that lies at the heart of his ministry. If you get the opportunity to host this talented evangelist, share him with the whole church but don't fail to schedule some quality time for your children and youth!

Rev Mike Chamberlain, Kansas City District Superintendent

Kansas East Annual Conference, United Methodist Church

Mike Rayson brings warm humor, deep faith, musical joy, and an engaging manner when speaking and leading. As a result, our congregation experienced a very special time of worship together and found great encouragement for living faithfully in the daily routines of our lives. How refreshing it is to look at life through the lens of Mike Rayson!

Rev. Dr. Scott N. Field, Wheatland Salem United Methodist Church, Naperville, IL (USA)

I had the rare privilege of meeting Mike Rayson at the recent United Methodist Spiritual Leaders' Conference at Scarritt-Bennett Center in Nashville, TN.  I'm confident I speak for all of the one-hundred-plus attendees as well as for myself when I say how truly BLESSED we were by Mike's gifts of musicianship and worship leadership!  A deeply sincere spirituality permeates his musical performance, whether of one of his compositions or an original arrangement of a beloved favorite, and gives him a compelling "liturgical presence".  He skillfully weaves his own witness into the musical numbers, which captivates an audience!  I hope to invite him to our Shasta District of the California-Nevada United Methodist Annual Conference during the year ahead, and I certainly can give my strong personal endorsement that any church gathering would be richly blessed by Mike's music ministry.  

Rev Priscilla Hanford, Chair – Shasta District Council on Ministries. California-Nevada Annual Conference, United Methodist Church.

Mike was a breath of fresh air - non-threatening, he challenged us all to a renewed vision of the Gospel.  The memory of his time with us in Bristol will linger long in the memory of those who had the privilege of sharing his music and his leadership of worship.
