What is a Gospel Magic Show?
Gospel Magic is the use of sleight of hand and illusion used as visual aids to assist in the explanation and comprehension of spiritual truth.
A typical show is a 30 - 45 minutes comedy audience participation magic show, with a special ending focusing on biblical truths. The show is a evangelistic outreach tool. It is the hope of this ministry, to share a clear presentation of the gospel in a non-threatening manner to children and adults.
What is your Statement of Faith and Beliefs?
As a member of the International Fellowship of Christian Magicians, My Statement of Faith is:
I have received Jesus Christ as my personal Lord and Savior, and believe the Bible to be the only inspired infallible Word of God. I believe that Jesus Christ was born of a virgin, and that He died on the cross as the only atonement for our sins; that He rose from the dead; that He ascended to the Father's right hand in Heaven, and will one day come back for those who trust in Him. As a member of this fellowship, I commit myself to:
(1) reaching lost souls and encouraging growth in the
body of Christ through the use of such talents as magic, ventriloquism, and
associated crafts
(2) diligently to be a more proficient performer with these talents, and
(3) carefully uphold the code of ethics of the magic profession (relative to
exposure of magical effects and ideas)
My beliefs are evangelical and are inline with my home church, Kennebec Community Church. Please visit their website www.kennebecchurch.org for a complete overview of our beliefs.
What do you charge?
The price of Salvation has already been paid. Ministry though, does incur expenses, so I do charge an investment fee. Here is how the investment scale works.
God has agreed to be faithful to do His part.
I have agreed to be faithful to do my part.
We ask you to be faithful to do your part.
I require travel reimbursement with a love offering. If an offering is not appropriate then an agreed upon honorarium. Please understand that this investment is not the final say on if I will come. Please understand though, I do set a goal to reach, as this is my livelihood.
What Gospel Magic is NOT!
It should be emphasized that Gospel Magic is NOT in anyway an involvement with or in the supernatural, occult, witchcraft, so called black or white magic, spiritualism, or the new age. The Bible Clearly Forbids Participation In Any Of These Forms Of Evil. For an excellent article on the use of Gospel Magic, you are encouraged to read an article put forth by The Fellowship of Christian Magicians at FCM.org called "Should a Christian Do Magic or Conjuring?" written by Robert Hill.
