Become a “Friend of Faith@Home”!

Mission Statement: “Establishing the home as the primary place where faith is lived and nurtured.”

What might it mean to you to enhance the faith growth of thousands of people around the world; to impact generations to come; and to strengthen the church? 

According to the Barna Group, “More than 90% of ‘Christian households’ do not pray, read the Bible or engage in any type of family devotions or faith talk.” As a result young adults, who once attended Christian Sunday school and youth ministry programs, are walking away from the faith at an alarming rate. 
​

As a supporter of Faith@Home ministries you are helping to shape today’s culture by impacting the lives of individuals, families and churches across the globe. What might it mean to be a person who helps influence a person’s life; a family’s life; a church’s life; to be “generationally strong” for Christ? By becoming a “Friend of Faith@Home”, you can have this influence – you can make this difference! As we celebrate the 5 year anniversary of Faith@Home, please join in supporting this powerful ministry movement.

Watching Mark over the last few years, I have seen him completely sell out to follow God’s direction with his Faith@Home ministry.  Mark travels all over the globe with the message that easily translates to other cultures and helps churches and families make a significant difference.  I would highly recommend Mark’s work to you as some people are visionaries, some are implementers, and Mark possesses both attributes.”

“It has been fascinating to see how key influencers from several denominations responded to Mark’s message so passionately.  A dynamic influential leader called and begged to get more information or a recording because everybody was calling saying ‘you should have been there’.  The principles Mark taught have been added to the topics being addressed at seminars, summer conferences and denominational gatherings.  We love to watch how ideas take hold and spread and it is exciting to see how Mark’s teaching struck a chord with the leaders in attendance.”
