Welcome, to “a holy calling,” the radio teaching ministry of Don Minkler. This ministry, which started in September 2010, was created out of a continuing burden to help equip both those whom the Lord has called and those whom He shall call and raise up, into pastoral and teaching positions of ministry. This ministry is especially focused upon proclaiming the great doctrines of the faith, and exhorting those who teach to walk worthy of that calling with which we have been called in holiness. Let those who answer the call of God in such a ministry be ever mindful that we who teach shall be judged more strictly. Let us ever look humbly then to Him who is able to keep us from stumbling, and to present us faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy!

Hope's Phonetic Bible Link Consider the ease in which these examples enable you to pronounce difficult Bible names:
Names in the Names in Hope's
King James: Phonetic Bible:
Sadducees ........ to........SAD-you-sees
Pharisees .......... to........FARE-uh-seez
Maaseiah ........... to........May-ah-SIY-ah
This is an incredible blessing to anyone who has ever had to publicly humiliate themselves as they stumble reading through the difficult-to-pronounce names in the Bible. Hope's Phonetic Bible is the work of Dr. Jack Hope who was Don's pastor growing up. Later on, Don entered the ministry by becoming Jack's Associate Pastor. Hope's Phonetic Bible appears parallel with the King James version. Jack Hope has graciously given his Phonetic Bible to the Church at large. Although it is copyrighted, Jack has allowed it to be freely copied and used, as long as it is on a non-profit basis. If you would like a free copy on disc sent to you, as we are able, we would be glad to send one to you (one per household unless special arrangements are made). If you would include a little bit to help cover the cost of shipping the disc, great --- but if not, as we are able, we are glad to send it out.
