"I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Ted Schempp for your ministry. I know Ted quite well, having first come in contact with him through my work at CCA. Ted has done an excellent job through concerts and leading worship at CCA. I have also had Ted lead worship at the church where I serve as pastor, on numerous occasions. From both a Chaplain and Pastoral standpoint, I feel it is worth mentioning that he is not only talented but also has a servant's heart."

"Ted Schempp is a servant of the Lord Jesus. He goes where the Lord leads, which led him to Teen Challenge. Here he volunteers about five hours a week, and while at T. C., he has taught a class on "Boundaries" and has inspired the students to set new boundaries for their lives. Also, he leads the students into a higher level of worship. We feel Ted is a great man of God and has a humble heart to serve wherever needed. He understands authority and submission to those he serves."

"Ted Schempp's worship music and issue-related songs, deal with the Christian life and walk, that touches the heart. His preaching style easily relates particular scripture texts to people's lives. His approach is relational with a touch of humor. Our congregation greatly appreciated what he had to say."

"It is an honor to highly recommend the ministry of my brother in Christ, Ted Schempp. Ted first served our church in the spring of 2007, at the recommendation of our sister church's pastor. Ted and his wife Sharon, led a time of praise and worship, using not only well-known contemporary Christian music, but also fine and artistic music of Ted's own compositions. The event was so well enjoyed by children, youth and adults of all ages, that the pastor and Board of the church soon thereafter asked Ted to come back in 2008. We have no hesitation to ask Ted to lead us in praise and worship, or times of teaching, because we know he loves the Lord Jesus Christ, believes the Bible wholeheartedly, and shares personal experiences in a humble and God-honoring manner."

"It is a pleasure for me to recommend the ministry of Ted Schempp to you. As Ted ministered to us through his music, it was evident to me he has a passion for the glory of God. His goal for every concert is to create a Christ-honoring atmosphere in which the hearts of the people are open to the Holy Spirit. Ted ministers from his heart, and he is open in sharing the stories, whether tragedies or triumphs, behind the songs he writes. As such, he speaks to people in all phases of life."

"In the sometimes monotonous and heavy work of the church, Ted Schempp, brings a breath of fresh air. It was a pleasure experiencing his passion for ministry to God's people, and his excitement in the Lord."
