We have been serving in the Lords army for 8 years. My name is Gary Hawkins my wife
Stephanie, daughter Michaela, son Caleb and son Jacob. I grew up in a Christian home, my dad is a God
fearing, Bible
preaching baptist preacher. I had heard some of the hardest messages on hell and some of the sweetest
messages about heaven, and just made professions to please man. I worked in the church, many times
doing everything from just under what the pastor had to do. Many times I would be so wrapped up in the
church that I would think well I have to be saved, I do this and I do that. I taught Sunday school, lead the
singing and evening went on visitation faithfully, yet I was lost and on my way to hell. Only because I had
never fully gave my heart to the Lord. I was in service on a Sunday morning, and my Pastor gave the word
of God as he had done many times before, but this time it was straight to me. I heard the word of God and
it was burning in me and that morning I seen hell as a place were I would to if I died without calling on the
Lord Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. God gave me a new heart on July 11th 1999. He then gave me
the burden to share the gospel with a lost and dying world by calling me to preach his word! My wife
Stephanie grew up in Michigan for 17 years. We met and were married and moved to South Dakota. This
is were she heard a clear presentation of the gospel, after service we all went home as we had before and
she laid in the bed tossing and turning and when I asked what was wrong she said she knew right then
that
if she died she would spend eternity in hell. My dad had the honor to lead her to the Lord!
We have had the great privilege to serve the Lord with my Dad working in Church Planting and Christian
Radio, God has greatly blessed us with a family that is serving the Lord spreading the gospel to a lost and
dying world. Our goal is to reach as many people with the gospel as far and wide as we can. We believe
by way of radio is the fastest way to do this. We have been blessed to have been apart of starting
churches in the west and also starting two Christian FM Radio stations that play only God fearing Bible
Preaching and Godly singing 24/7.
In His Service,
Bro Gary Hawkins & Family
