...There is only one Chuck Missler. There will only be one Chuck Missler. He was born in a unique era of emerging technological development, with an unusually high IQ, and God gave him an appetite to use his gifts to study scripture. I don’t want to take the time to recap all of Chuck’s background, but if you want to review it in depth, here’s a link: chuckmissler.com.

Besides being a great Bible teacher and man of God, Chuck created a certain genre of Bible teaching. Genre is defined as a category of artistic composition, as in music or literature, characterized by similarities in form, style, or subject matter. To describe the uniqueness of the K-House ministry genre, I’ll borrow a phrase from Bob Cornuke that stuck this week, “We sometimes have to leave the safe harbor of mutual consent to find truth.” Chuck and the K-House team have consistently sailed out of that harbor and have research projects to prove it!

With Acts 17:11 being Chuck’s cornerstone, he taught us to be like the Bereans. So many subject matters in our Christian life now in this heightened age of deceit require a diligent Berean approach. We firmly believe the future will require an even greater adherence to the Berean approach to God’s word mixed with an Issacharian discernment.

And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do;

— 1 Chronicles 12:32

For 22 years, I personally have benefited from Chuck Missler’s Bible study commentaries as a study tool. Whether working in my twenties bi-vocationally for Larry Burkett’s Crown Financial Ministry or through my thirties and into my forties as a local brick-and-mortar church pastor in ministry. Even now operating my own ministries and serving as a K-House ministry affiliate, I cling ever closer to the Word of God and a large tool box of Biblical research and experiences to navigate this landscape.

For both Bob Cornuke and Ron Matsen, their relationship with Dr. Missler goes back even further to the Southern California days at Calvary Chapel Costa Mesa under Pastor Chuck Smith. Each man has been successful over the years partly due to the teaching and example they received from Chuck Missler’s ministry.

K-House possesses the sacred trust of 1000’s of hours of materials, of discoveries, and ministry relationships. The primary focus and function of Chuck Missler’s ministry has always been to conduct the serious study of God’s word, “66 books written by 40 different authors over many thousands of years, yet creating an integrated message system.” Like me, many of you heard Chuck’s voice in your head reading that last sentence. So, what is God doing for Koinonia House 2.0?

Team Uniqueness

As Ron was sharing what God has put on his heart about the vision for the future, I was encouraged looking around at the high-quality team God has been assembling. This is a very talented and special group of people called to continue the legacy of Koinonia House ministry. Everyone has a different yet amazing story, many on the team assembled have even come from different countries down to New Zealand to lend their experience and expertise. Most of all the call of God is on their life to build this great ministry. I watched how discussions were hashed out about concepts, ministry was strategized, artwork was dreamed up and almost instantly created. Then I watched how The River Lodge conference room was quickly converted to the recording studio environment to create the videos that have been seen by millions of people across the world. This team is efficient, they are proficient, and I believe they have been gathered together to continue this mission.

Future of the Ministry

Ron’s ultimate vision for Koinonia House is to create a repository of Biblical knowledge full of personal study notes all collected in your own personal resource library. There would be materials on every book of the Bible, every chapter of every book and every verse of every chapter. On top of that, there will be a large library of topical materials too. Koinonia House will create a hub of serious Bible scholarship that end-users could take with them as a ministry toolbox for success in whatever Kingdom field God has called them to. There will continue to be new resources created by men and women called to speak into this Berean and Issachar style of ministry. What a blessing!

God has given many people a passion to invest in this type of ministry toolbox and for those who do so regularly we are very grateful. Your investment into the Koinonia House ministry fuels us to provide materials that equip the Body of Christ. Thank you for making a difference. Lives are being changed, and that is the Legacy we are working to continue.

I have two requests.

Share your story to encourage us and allow us to encourage others by the word of your testimony. I am collecting ministry impact stories at gunnar@learngenerosity.com.
