Personal Recommendations



"When we are not in meetings, it has been our privilege to attend and be part of the ministry of Gospel Baptist Church. Pastor Bill Lytell and all of the pastoral staff dearly love the Lord and are committed to faithfully preaching, teaching and modeling the Word of God in their lives. They are passionate about getting the gospel to those who do not know Christ, as is evidenced by the many outreach ministries of the church, both in the Bonita Springs area and around the world. Their desire to see 'fruit that remains' is commendable, and their willingness to be honest and firm in their stand on the word of God, in a day when many are not, is so encouraging. If you are in this area, we trust you will prayerfully consider being part of this exciting ministry."

"There are many good churches across America that I could recommend without apology. There are a handful of churches that I can enthusiastically recommend, and would be honored to be a member of Gospel Baptist Church of Bonita Springs, Florida, is one of those churches. I was blessed by the hunger for, and the understanding of, the Word of God. It is a wonderful thing to meet folks that love the Bible. We are in mission conferences week after week. My heart was greatly encouraged to be among a congregation that is excited about missions all year, rather than one week out of the year. It is not difficult to care for the world if you have a heart for those around you. The local outreach is reflected in the churches worldwide ministry."

"January, 2008 was my first opportunity to meet Pastor Bill Lytell and the people of Gospel Baptist Church as I had the privilege to hold evangelistic meetings for them. Both the church and the revival crusade far exceeded my expectations. I met people from all across the United States and Canada who had come to winter in that beautiful area and were enjoying serving in a strong, fundamental church with the right kind of music. Both the snow birds and the local people serve side by side and are excited about what God is doing in their church under the faithful Bible ministry of Pastor Bill Lytell. If I lived or wintered in the Bonita Springs area, Gospel Baptist Church would be my church home!"

"What a joy it is for Karen and me to recommend Gospel Baptist Church. Pastor Lytell, his staff, and his church family are excited about serving God and seeing people saved. The church is extremely friendly, making any visitors immediately feel at home. The music is heart-warming and the preaching practical. If we lived in south Florida, Gospel Baptist would be our church home."

"Gospel Baptist Church is a church that has been named appropriately. I am impressed by their passion to get the Gospel of Jesus Christ to their community. Our ministry has had the privilege to be at Gospel Baptist Church several times. Personally, I am always blessed to be around this church and their pastor. Pastor Bill Lytell loves people. His folks on his staff are vibrant, God-loving people who are a delight to know and minister with. If you are visiting or moving to this area of Florida, you have to visit Gospel Baptist Church. I know you will be glad you did."

"It has been my privilege and honor to serve with Pastor Bill Lytell and the Gospel Baptist Church in a number of week-long crusades. When I think of churches in South Florida, this is the first one that comes to mind. These people love Christ and have an earnest desire to exalt Him in their worship and serve Him in their lives. Their generosity is extreme, their witness is known to all, their compassion for people is seen on a daily basis. If I were in South Florida, Gospel Baptist Church would be my church."

"It has been my privilege to be with Pastor Bill Lytell and the Gospel Baptist Church on two separate occasions. Brother Lytell is a very lively preacher, who preaches the old-time gospel. This is a church where people come to know the Lord and grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. I would heartily recommend anyone moving into the Bonita Springs area to seriously consider visiting Gospel Baptist Church."

"It has been my joy to conduct several week long meetings at Gospel Baptist Church under three pastors. In this day of change and confusion, it is good to know that there are churches and pastors who are committed to God's Word. I pray the Lord will use Pastor Lytell and the people of Gospel Baptist as they continue to lift up Jesus Christ."

This church has a fervency in exalting the Lord Jesus Christ, a faithfulness to God's Word, and a fiery passion in reaching lost souls.

"I have had the privilege of being in several missionary conferences at Gospel Baptist Church. I have always been impressed with the friendly atmosphere. You feel like you are among your best friends even on your first visit. Gospel Baptist Church has a history of great Bible preaching. The music is God honoring and inspiring. The church has a burden for souls in their community and around the world. There is something great for every age group. Gospel Baptist Church certainly is a church that is Biblical and culturally relevant."
