Joel McGarvey
Joel McGarvey Associate Director, Evangelist
Mr. McGarvey grew up in Altoona, Pennsylvania in the home of godly parents who instilled in Joel and his siblings the importance of serving the Lord. It was during these years that he sat under the ministry and teachings of Pastor Henry Kulp. Joel is a graduate of Grace Bible College. For over twenty years Joel ministered in 3 churches in Michigan and 2 in Pennsylvania. Joel and his wife Susan have four children. Their two daughters (Rebecca and Jennifer) live in Wisconsin where their husbands pastor churches. They also have two sons, Paul (in the Army) and Joel Jr (at home). Joel has been involved in radio and television ministries as well as traveling with his brother Tim in a singling ministry. He also serves on the Board of Things To Come Mission, currently serving as its Chairman. Joel joined the Board of BDTLB in March of 2004 and became the Associate Director in January of 2005. Since that time he and his wife have traveled extensively sharing the saving Gospel of the Grace of God around the country in one of their Faith and Fire Crusades. The McGarveys look forward to ministering in your church.

Over the years that team has increased; some joined the team and others departed, but the purpose and message has remained virtually unchanged.

Admittedly this article will be different than most published in the pages of Truth Aflame. Its subject matter is not evangelistic, nor is it expounding some deep theological truths. But it is my prayer that it will find fertile ground in the hearts and minds of married couples. Prayerfully read the following article and weigh its words against your own personal marital relationship. Today, perhaps as never before, we must work to strengthen the home.
