“I have watched Cheryl serve women with wisdom, grace, and excellence. Her love for God, His Word, and women speaks volumes about her deep and abiding relationship with Jesus. Cheryl is gifted in leading, teaching, and equipping others. I am excited to see how God continues to work through Cheryl’s ministry to women.”
Andrea Lennon, Director of Lifeway Women
“With her sweet soft manner, Cheryl brings fresh insight to God’s Word. Her depth of experience and relationship with God shines through her teaching as she guides you into a deeper understanding of Biblical Truth and your personal walk with the Savior.”
Rebekah Edgar- Thrive Tutoring & Educational Services (Former missionary to Ukraine with SEND International)
Cheryl was our pastor’s wife… Cheryl seeks God and is always prepared to teach and to minister to others. She is kind and gracious to all. We remember when God began to call Cheryl to step up and to speak in front of others. It is against her nature to be in front of others, “But God” had other plans for her. We were witnesses at the beginning as to His work in her and through her as He gently nudged her over and over in different circumstances that kept putting Cheryl in speaking and leadership roles. She never sought this out on her own: it was a calling from God on her life.
She has been faithful to God to speak as He calls her. She truly is beautiful inside and out and it is a privilege to be her friend!
She exemplifies 2nd Timothy 2:15 Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. And Proverbs 31:26 She opens her mouth with wisdom, and on her tongue is the law of kindness.
Doug and Karen Blackburn, Owner of Fishers of Men Resort
I (had)… the pleasure of working with Cheryl Harp for many years. Cheryl… led the drama production that produced great Easter Drama Programs. Cheryl’s dedication to directing… to drama arts and design are only matched by her ability to bring out the best in everyone who worked on any production set. Her passion for drama, teaching, speaking and couple’s retreats is contagious, and anyone fortunate enough to work with her will undoubtedly see her exceptional skill and leadership.
Pastor Gary E. Thomas, FBC Garfield
We have been privileged to know Cheryl Harp for almost 8 years working alongside her in ministry projects, connection groups, and leadership teams. We have enjoyed sitting under her teaching in the Women’s Ministry and church trips to Israel, and even as cast members of the major productions performed by the church she directed. All of this has given us an up close look at her calm and ‘lead by example’ style of leadership. Her love for the Lord, thirst for Bible knowledge, and genuine love for people is evident in all she does.
Cheryl Harp is a wonderful Bible teacher whose passion for the Word of God is truly heartwarming. Over the years, I have had the privilege of being part of groups she leads, and her deep love for Scripture shines through in every lesson. Cheryl’s ability to break down complex biblical concepts with detailed explanations, coupled with visuals that enhance understanding, makes the Bible more accessible and meaningful. Her patience and willingness to take time to answer questions further enrich the learning experience, creating a space where everyone feels encouraged and supported in their spiritual journey.Lisa Davis, Lakeview Baptist Church
I consider myself a lifelong connoisseur of Biblical history and teachings, so in April of 2023 when I was presented with the opportunity to join the Journeys of Paul group visiting the Holy Land, I took it. The experience was more than I could have imagined, largely in part due to the influence of Cheryl Harp. Her deep-seated knowledge and insight into these ancient cultures enriched the experience to an immeasurable degree. Her love and passion for Biblical history, the scriptures, and drive to share her knowledge with others is evident. The Lord has blessed her with a special ability to integrate all aspects of her knowledge and passion into a personalized and distinct ministry. Her dedication continues to inspire and deepen the faith of everyone fortunate enough to experience her guidance.

To recommend an author or conference speaker means little to me, if that person’s life does not illustrate and reflect God’s biblical wisdom and grace. Let me assure you Cheryl Harp has those qualities and purpose. I have known Cheryl Harp for many years as a pastor’s wife and a strong Bible student. She does not shy from deeper biblical issues and is always prepared to give an account of her saving faith in our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ. While I have a deep respect for Cheryl’s intellectual prowess, I have more appreciation for her desire to share that knowledge with other Bible students. Cheryl can research and present those spiritual issues that oftentimes hinder others in a deeper understanding of the treasures found in the pages of God’s Holy Work.Dr. Clarence Holland. EdD Professor, Liberty University (Retired)
Cheryl Harp. What a Blessing that GOD put her in my life in 2016. Newly converted, I joined the Lakeview Church, got Saved and she recruited me and two other women into Bible Study for a year. I knew nothing. Her strong love and compassion for God, blew me away. I was pulled in immediately and became so excited about learning the Bible. She can read scripture like a storybook to a child with my eyes and attention unwavering. It was an amazing year. All four of us ladies became lifelong friends/sisters in Christ.Pam Gabbard, Lakeview Baptist Church
