David Coote

I only met Bro David Coote once in a church revival where he preached several sermons that has made a lifelong impression in my mind and soul. I started preaching a few years later and I knew that the same style and passion he preached was the way God was calling me to do the same. O how he could make you feel as if you were there in the scriptures story. The one that I remember so real was the Good Samaritan. What a blessing he was, what a talent he had and what a servant to the Lord....

I appreciate you dear brother in Christ. You sincerely forgave me immediately when I asked you to. When I saw you at Bethany in Baker, LA. and you were in the boat rowing furiously and asking Jesus if He cared that all were perishing, I knew then that IBC was the Bible college to go to.

Hard to imagine that 33 years have gone by since I was at IBC. I haven't kept up with all the news that happened over the years but was saddened to learn of the downgrade from college to training center and then the shutdown. And of course, the sad news of Bro. Coot's passing. But time marches on and things change but Jesus is still Lord. Hallelujah.

I was first exposed to Bro. David's dynamic teaching style at the Greater Pittsburgh Charismatic Conference in 1975. After being in...

I learned a lot about the Bible through International Bible College(IBC). I met a lot of great and interesting people with some whom I have developed friendships. I have ministered in various places and individuals around San Antonio since leaving IBC. What I enjoyed was David Coote's teaching, on the "Life of Christ." I took what I learned shared with others. God organized and orchestrated our lives and all who past through IBC's gates where touched by David Coote. May Ana Joy (Parker) and...

I will never forget the years spent at IBC and Bro. David bringing the stories from the Bible to LIFE. One minute he could be crying and the next he would be leaping off a desk to get his point across. I literally felt like I was right in the middle of the story and could feel what Paul was going through. It was truly amazing and lessons I have remembered over the past 50 years. Thank you Bro. David for all the lives you touched. What a homecoming you must have had when you were with Sis....

An unforgetable teacher. He loved the Lord, and taught us to do the same. Thank you for showing the love of God to all of us.

I will be forever grateful to God for David Coote and the love of God´s Word that he implanted in my life and in so many other lives. O, for more men and women living their lives to impact young men and women with the reality of who Jesus is and what He can and will do with a life committed to Him.

GOD TRULY BLESSED ME DURING MY YEARS AT IBC.BRO. DAVID WAS A LARGE PART OF THAT BLESSING. WE HAVE LOST A FRIEND.

He had a great influence on me and my wife's life and will not be forgotten.
