Pastor Mike Purkey (Lenexa Christian Center) - I have known Pastor Coy Barker for over 30 years. Coy has been a true friend and man of God of which there are very few today.  I have always been impressed by his work ethic and desire to see God move in every aspect of his life.  I believe you could place the ministry of Coy Barker at any locale and a great church would arise from his efforts. I am so thankful to know and have a dear friend so anointed of the Spirit.
         
   
  Pastor Ron Dryden (Founder - Cathedral of Praise) - For many years I have known Dr. Coy Barker, first as a neighboring pastor in Oklahoma City, then as a dear friend. His genuine compassion and fierce loyalty have been a blessing to me through the good times and the challenging times.  Pastor obviously is a gifted preacher, a lover of God, and one of America’s greatest pastors. I’ve always heard that there are few true friends in life…and if that is true, Drs. Coy and Dee Barker can be counted in that number.  I am blessed of God to have Drs. Coy and Dee Barker as my friends.
         
 
 

Bishop and Mrs. Robert C. Vance (Retired Senior Pastors - Tremont Avenue Church of God) - Each month we eagerly await the new issue of your powerful and insightful devotionals that seem to be written just for us.  What a blessing you are to the body of Christ.  And, the fact that we know you personally, lends even greater validation to your daily messages.  Let us continue to receive the benefits of your wisdom, experience and walk with God.
         
 
    Pastors Phillip and Sheryl Kirkland (Senior Pastors - Destiny Center) - I count it all joy to endorse two people Sheryl and I consider to be a ministry gift in our lives.  Drs. Coy and Dee Barker are not only dear friends, but they are two of the most gifted leaders in christianity today.  With a keen sense of wisdom and an insight to the needs of ministers, this couple have found a place in our hearts that could never be replaced.  We would like to say thank you to both of them for the Godly council and encouragement they have given us over the years. I recommend them to anyone seeking a mentor and a voice to speak into your life.
     
 

Bishop Julius Abiola (Presiding Bishop - Christ Life Ministries) - Drs. Coy and Dee Barker's support as apostles, that have been called to awaken God’s people to the possibilities that God has deposited in them, have indeed helped us in our mission as uncommon champions. They have also helped us provide meaningful opportunities to Christians for the purpose of nurturing, training and equipping them as potential Christian leaders to fulfill their destiny in Christ. We are proud to be associated with Metro World and are highly honored to have Dr. Coy Barker serve on the board of trustees of Christ Life Ministries Int. and Dr. Dee Barker serve on the governing council of Christ Life Bible Institute & Seminary. As they avail themselves to other ministries, God will honor them and cause them to reap greater reward of His glory.
Pastors Fabian and Barbara Sena (Senior Pastors - Victory Center) - We want to take time to show our appreciation to Drs. Coy and Dee Barker.  They have been a holy mantle over us.  Filled with wisdom and love, they have been a source of encouragement and strength over us, our family, and our ministry in Hobbs, New Mexico.  We want to thank God for  them.  VisionConnectors and their daily devotionals have been an amazing blessing to our lives!  VisionConnectors has been used in our academy, on our mission trip to Africa, and in our private devotions.  What a blessing they both have been to us! We love them and thank them for always being there and for all the godly counsel they have continually given us.
