About Us
Spreading Light Ministries
began in 1999. It was designed to give Biblical insight into
some of Christianity's more difficult issues. Since then, that
ministry has expanded into a place where not only that is
discussed but has included theology, sermons, Bible studies, and
Christian stories. In January 2003 we included an online
school that
offers free courses to Christians around the world. In January
2005 Christian
Life Stories was
launched as its own site due to the popularity of Christian
stories and poems. In 2008
Online Bible
Devotions was launched. 2009 has brought rapid expansion to
the Spreading Light Ministries Network with the addition of
Inspirational
Online which overlaps some of the material on Christian Life
Stories. Also in 2009 My Online Bible Games was spawned as its
separate site apart from spreadinglight.com. With this new site
came numerous printable games as well as many new online games.
Totally new in 2009 is also
Study Bibles Shop,
a site which reviews and sells study Bibles.
Christian
Evangelism is the newest addition to the Spreading Light
Network but more additions are planned for 2009.
Our
ultimate goal is to bring souls to Christ and to unite the
church for that purpose. If this ministry brings even one
soul to Christ or strengthens the faith of one believer, we
believe that all our work has paid off.
We
believe that Jesus is the only way to God and are concerned by
the fact that so many see nothing wrong in other religions
today. John 14:6 says, "Jesus answered, 'I am the way
and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father
except through me.'" For this reason, we hold that
Christianity and faith in Christ is the only way to heaven and
despite our goal of unity, we will not compromise on this issue.
We
strive to see the Holy Spirit alive and active in every place
where Christians gather. We want to see a fire spread
throughout the church of Jesus Christ; a revival and commitment
like none ever seen to take place across the world. We
believe that the time may be short and our Lord may return at
any time. For this reason, we want to be found ready for
His return.
The
founder of Spreading Light has been at work within the church
for a number of years already. He is an ordained minister
and has his masters degree. Other contributors to this
ministry are involved in ministries of their own across the
United States and include various denominations. We do not
agree on all issues but firmly hold to the fact that Jesus is
Lord and is the only way to heaven.
Because
there have been some who have asked, the founder is the author
of many of the articles on this website. He is a member of
the United Brethren in Christ Church (found online at
ub.org)
and holds a B.S. in Bible from Lancaster Bible College (lbc.edu)
as well as a Master of Arts
in Religion from Liberty University. (liberty.edu)
Although none of the views expressed on this website are
contradictory to the views held by the church or the schools,
they should not be assumed to be representative of organizations. Many stances held by this website has an "official" view
by the organizations and should be taken be
held by the founder or other contributors to this ministry.
This
ministry exists only online and has no ministry budget or
materials. For this reason, we ask that visitors would not
email us asking for materials or donations to some cause, worthy
as they may be.
