Over the years we have been very fortunate to reach many people who were far from God. Now we believe that He is calling us to take what we've learned and pass it on to other Christians, pastors and churches beyond Norman, Oklahoma.
Our plan is to focus on two important areas...
TRAINING PASTORS
We have supported missionaries in Guatemala for more than 25 years. They have now started 15 new churches. I was finally able to go there in March 2012 and have been back every year since then. Check out the pictures on the GUATEMALA page. I meet with the pastors to encourage and help them in how to reach more people through their churches.
My brother Rick Martin has been a missionary in the Philippines for 42 years. His church now runs around 3000 and they have a Bible College with 500 students. When they graduate, most go out and start new churches all over the Philippine islands. Check out the some pictures on the PHILIPPINES page.
Starting in 2020, we plan to do FREE "Day Aways" for pastors in the U.S. and provide very personalized help to improve their churches' outreach efforts.
Many of the 400,000 churches in the U.S. desperately want to reach out to people who need God, but just don't know how. However, the vast majority of the evangelism conferences and books today are produced by mega-churches that run in the thousands, when the average church has less than 200 people.
So there is a huge need for help that is relevant to the smaller to medium size churches' situation and from someone with a proven track record of making it happen. And we have ranged from 80 people to over 1200 and every size in between.
FREE SERMONS SERIES
We created a web site where we have made available FREE to pastors and churches many of the talks and series that Russ has done in recent years that are targeted to non-believers.
