Notable Quotables

"For nearly two decades, I've had the privilege of witnessing the rare and wonderful convergence of spiritual gifts in Keith Allen Pintar's life. I've also seen how instrumental his gifts have been in reaching the lost and building up the Body of Christ. But it's been Keith's faithfulness to make the most of what he's been given that makes this endorsement such a pleasure to write. All the gifts and abilities in the world don't do a bit of good unless they're backed-up by a heart that's passionately committed to serving others. And when I think of Keith, the first word that comes to mind isn't "musician", "teacher", or even "evangelist"...it's "servant", which is why he's had such a powerful impact as a musician, teacher, and evangelist."

"Hello, my name is Dennis Agajanian.

It is always a blessing to add onto the list of talented musicians I know, those that are - "one in a million..." In today's world, sports enthusiasts look to people like Michael Schumacher - who won the Formula 1 Grand Prix seven times, as a hero... or to Tiger Woods - as a hero in the world of Golf. People of this caliber are rarely found these days...

In Christianity, "communication" is the essential function of reaching the lost in our world. As Christians, we are constantly seeking any way we can to reach people for Jesus Christ. Tools, such as a guitar, or speech, are two instruments that God can greatly use, but only if operated with the proper "race car driver" at the wheel. Keith Allen Pintar is a friend of mine. I have seen and heard the cannons of communication in his ability to play the guitar as a memorandum in his technique. I have seen him speak to audiences using the tools of persuasion appealing to the Logic (Logos), Emotions (Pathos), and Character (Ethos) that touches the heart emotionally, and teaching the Bible - which appeals to his audience logically. All three elements - Logos, Pathos, and Ethos, are combined to spiritually appeal to any style audience. Audiences that are poor in spirit. Audiences that are rich and lost...

Keith is an extremely gifted guitar player (acoustic or electric), who can play or perform with the best anywhere, and has performed many places that few Christian artists will ever have the opportunity to do. He has opened concerts for Phil Keaggy, the Newsboys, and Audio Adrenaline. His testimony was globally televised on the Christian Broadcast Network's "The 700 Club," with host Pat Robertson. He has sung at many churches from small to mega, including Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa, Horizon Christian Fellowship, and Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Keith has also traveled to many different countries to sing for the Lord - including the Dominican Republic, El Salvador and the Philippines.

In addition, over the years, Keith's music has been played on various radio stations both nationally and internationally. He's also had the opportunity to minister through song and teaching at pastor's, mens', youth, and singles conferences. Keith's heart for the hurting and the lost also has him ministering locally on a weekly basis in Jacksonville, FL- with members of his congregation; at homeless shelters, jails, schools, hospitals and nursing homes.

I recommend Keith to you as a man that you can trust - who will be able to communicate the Gospel to any style audience. He can be used in your Sunday morning services, midweek service, evening concert, or whatever place you feel led to have him share.

In closing, there are very few people that I would ever consider calling to replace me if I wasn't able to perform a concert, but I would call Keith Allen Pintar. If you have any further questions about Keith's ministry, please feel free to e-mail or call me. Thanks for considering my friend Keith."

"To Whom It May Concern,

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter for my friend Pastor Keith Allen Pintar. I have known Keith since 1993 when we served together at Calvary Chapel Fort Lauderdale. Pam and I have ministered at Calvary Chapel Jacksonville, where Keith serves as senior pastor, many times over the years with Potter's Field Ministries. In many places in the U.S., and in El Salvador, we have seen the Lord use Keith's talents as an exceptional guitar player and worship leader to bring many to know the Lord more deeply and praise Him consistently. God has blessed Keith with a passion to glorify our Savior through praise and worship. His performances are joyful, heartfelt and fully reflect his love for Jesus and a gratitude for what He has done for us. I highly recommend his music ministry for your services and special events. He is truly a gifted musician, teacher and valued friend in both Pam's and my life."

In Christ,

"Dear friend in Christ,

My name is Paul Clark. I appreciate you taking the time to read this short note. I am known by many for being one of the founding fathers of Contemporary Christian Music, but sometimes, it's a frustrating title. Why? Because many only take your music serious. After 39 years in the music ministry, I have been pastor, worship leader, conference speaker, etc.. Accompanying that, I have lived a lot of life, experiencing successes and disappointments. In my travels, I can say without hesitation, it is rare to find a pastor who not only tends to his calling of pastoring his fellowship, but also seeks to be faithful to a musical calling as well. My friend, Keith Allen Pintar, is one such brother in the Lord. The Lord has brought us together in a friendship and ministry relationship. I have enjoyed mentoring as well as gleaning valuable thoughts from his heart. I have stayed in Keith's home. His wife and two sons are nothing but joy to be with. As a gesture of brotherly love, and with conviction for Keith's calling, I would like you to pray about having Keith minister the Word and his songs at your fellowship, outreach event, etc. He also ministers frequently to those in prisons, and homeless shelters...

Thanks for your time and prayerful consideration in this matter of the heart."

In Jesus love,
Paul Clark

"It has been my privilege to have known Keith Allen Pintar for the last ten years. I have had the opportunity to watch him minister as both a gifted evangelist and a talented musician, which really is a rare combo. Keith has a gift of jumping into either context and effectively connecting with his audience. His life story is a powerful example of how God can take a life that has just about had it and turn it around for His Glory! Keith's passion for Jesus, love for God's Word, and compassion for the lost is both inspiring and contagious!"

"Hello! My name is Kelly Willard. Since 1977 I have had the unique privilege of being a co-laborer in ministry alongside innumerable Calvary Chapel Churches. My appreciation and respect for all of the Calvary Pastors and music ministers is very high. However, just recently, I have been blessed to get to know a very special one by the name of Keith Allen Pintar, of Jacksonville, Florida, who is pretty amazing to me. He is the Senior Pastor of the church, a teacher of the Word of God, and a very gifted/talented musician and Lead Worshiper. As well, it is obvious that he is a man of integrity in his personal life and home. And, on a side note, Keith allowed me the joyous privilege of contributing my gift as a singer/worshiper on his new CD, titled "Musicianary". It is a great recording and was a blessing for me to participate in. I can confidently and gladly recommend and encourage you to have Keith Allen Pintar to come and minister the Life and Light of his life, who is The Lord Jesus Christ, with your congregation and community."

In God's great love,
