Willie Herath

Founder of Ready Set Question Ministries

Willie …is dedicated to helping you build a reasonable worldview, one question at a time. His ministry is like ROCKET FUEL for Evangelism!

William’s story includes many years of being a timid Christian; too afraid to share his faith.

Embarrassed Christians don’t share their faith and ultimately walk away from the Church.

The harvest is plentiful, are you ready to add a little ROCKET FUEL to how you share Jesus?
