“This book answers ‘Why does the church exist?’ ‘How do I know that I am an active disciple seeking to fulfill the Great Commission?’ and ‘How do I become coachable so that I may live more as a real, active, results-producing disciple?’
In Are You Coachable?, we see the process that developed Larry’s consistent emphasis on being mentored and mentoring others toward the integral life of fulfilling the Great Commission. With great clarity and passion, borne of personal experience, Larry explains the opportunity available to each Christian to ‘know God and make Him known.’ Zeal is evident. This book reveals the consistency and passion with which Larry engages in a fully committed discipleship that demands personal evangelism.”

“… experience the deep joy reserved for those who pursue fulfilling Jesus’s Great Commission … one life at a time!”
“I’ve known Larry Stirlen for almost forty years. He has always been passionate about personal evangelism and is the most consistent person I know when it comes to sharing his faith in Jesus Christ with those who don’t know Him. Larry is gifted and has applied what he recommends in this book for decades in various churches. All this to say, he lives what he is recommending. And if you will prayerfully, faithfully, and patiently apply what he recommends, you will experience the deep joy reserved for those who pursue fulfilling Jesus’s Great Commission … one life at a time!”
—Wade Estes, retired lead pastor, CrossPoint Community Church (formerly First Baptist Church), Modesto, CA
“Of all the people I have run into in 40+ years of ministry, Larry Stirlen has been the loudest voice of the need for people to be trained in evangelism but not just talking about it but he shares his faith on a regular basis with ‘Divine Appointments’ happening every day. This book will encourage and challenge you in your commitment to the Great Commission and the part you have been called to play.”
