Mission

That You May Know Ministries was founded in March of 1996. At the time, I (Keith Ferrin) was a youth and worship pastor in Tacoma, Washington and came to the realization that – for many Christians – the Living Word of God is a phrase rather than a reality. That’s when I began to focus my preaching, teaching, writing, drama, and music into a ministry that would guide people into an active relationship with the Word and its Author. After almost eight years of ministering around the United States, Canada, and Europe, our mission statement is still the same:

That You May Know Ministries exists to introduce Jesus to people who don’t know Him yet, and lead those who already know Him into a greater understanding of, and deeper love for Him and His Word. That You May Know Ministries seeks to do this through preaching and teaching, drama, writing, and music.
