A creative Biblical presentation of the Gospel truth through Gospel Illusions.

A descriptive, powerful and dynamic ministry for all ages with a colorful and visual view

of the Holy Bible.

Ministering God’s Word here and around the world through the means of Gospel Illusions.

Our Vision

To build up the body of believers by teaching the importance of prayer, reading God’s

Word the Bible and sharing God’s Word with others.

Our Calling

To serve ALL with no reservation. To minister unity, harmony, obedience to God’s

Word and salvation through the Blood of Jesus our Messiah (the foundation of God’s

Holy Word).

Why

Many programs are centered to select groups of people (i.e.: singles, teens, men and

women) this separates the family, with the children going to the nursery or classes, teens

elsewhere and so on.

Our Goal

To bring the family together

To learn together

To grow together

This ministry is entertaining and teaches the practical applications of Scripture and It’s meaning.

We also minister to select groups; children, teens, singles and couples upon request.

Our experience spans over 30 years of ministering here in the US, Mexico and as far

away as Israel, Peru, Japan, Malaysia, Thailand, Philippines, and Hong Kong (working

with Hong Kong Youth for Christ).

We have trained many missionaries using Gospel magic for evangelism including the

Calvary Chapel Bible College in Peru, Baptist Seminary in Penang, Malaysia, Bethel

Seminary in Mai Sai, Thailand as well as several seminaries in Bangkok, Thailand. We

have held many training sessions while working

About the Performers...

Michael: I am a native San Diegan and was raised under the Roman Catholic doctrine.

As a child I had a desire to be a Priest. My life took a turn for the worse at about age 17,

including heavy drug usage (legal & illegal), alcohol abuse, and eventually suicide

attempts. It was during one of these attempts to end it all that I cried out to God. He

answered my cries for help, and within a period of seven months, I was alcohol and drug

free. I have been continuing to grow and serve the Lord to this day.

Jeannie: I am a native San Diegan and was raised in a Protestant home. I've known and

loved the Lord all my life. At the age of 21 I made a life-long commitment to follow the Lord in all His ways.

We met at church and married in 1983. Within the first years of our marriage we wanted

to serve the Lord. Our service began by teaching Sunday School. We started using

puppets to teach Bible Stories and soon after was introduced to Gospel Magic by a

Baptist minister. We have been members of the International Fellowship of Christian

Magicians since 1989. We started teaching Sunday School to serve the Lord and it

became full-time (since 1997) ministry!

Our hearts desire has and will always be to serve the Lord with every breath….
