Hi, I’m Larry Cole.
I’m the founder of Torch Bearer Leadership Development and
Pastor of Appalachian House of Prayer in Boone, NC.
At the age of 25, I was still suffering from the effects of a broken home and my own bad decisions. I had little education, no money and even less hope of being a successful Man of God, Husband or Father.
In 1996 I found myself with a desperate hunger for God.
That’s when things began to change.
Following a life-changing encounter with Jesus, I got a job with a Fortune 500 company and impacted multitudes with the Gospel of Jesus Christ in the business world.
I married my best friend Carla, graduated Bible College and raised 2 children.
My heart is still burning passionately for Jesus and I live to help others gain that same passion and be victorious Believers.
I love to listen to people tell their individual story and help them find where they are and help chart the path of where God is leading them.
I love to teach how to be aware of God's Presence and how to experience
Personal Discipleship from Him!
I speak to congregations and groups, illuminating the Covenant God has made with us through His Son.
