The Process

The GCP Personal Evangelism Equipping Strategy

Our goal at Good Catch Publishing is to equip each individual church member to share the good news of Jesus Christ through the personal testimony of people within your fellowship. These are the elements we will produce to give your church a sustained personal evangelism structure.

The Book Production Process

1. Contact a GCP Outreach Consultant at 1-877-96-REACH (73224), or at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . The consultant will send you a contract , the Authorization for Automatic Billing or the Credit Card Authorization Form and present your best options to survey your congregation.

2. Survey your church with the GCP survey. When surveying, take the time to help members think through the survey. You may want to combine this with a special message on the power of the testimony.

3. Select the surveys of the people you want to be interviewed by GCP. You should include a fairly even mix of genders and as wide a range of story themes as possible. Send us 12 to 14 surveys. Not all the surveys will be included in the book. The extra surveys will give us options if we are not able to make a connection with some of your congregants. Please prioritize the stories from 1 to 14 with the most desired survey starting at 1 and the most expendable at 14.

4. Fax or mail your surveys and a signed copy of your contract to

5. GCP will begin the process of producing your book.

6. GCP will call the people on your surveys and schedule a time for their interview with our professional writers.

7. After the interview has been conducted, our writers will write the story.

8. The story will be sent back for an accuracy check with the storyteller.

9. The story will be edited until we get approval from the storyteller.

10. The entire un-proofread manuscript will be sent to the person in charge at the church. He or she will then read the manuscript to assure that it accurately reflects your church's vision and values.

11. Once the manuscript has been approved by the person in charge at the church, we will then proofread, typeset and print the your new testimony book.

12. A GCP representative will launch your book at your church on the agreed upon date.
