You’ve heard of Logos Bible Software.

But it didn’t start in an office. It began in a teenager’s bedroom.

At sixteen, Bob Pritchett was writing code to help people study Scripture.

He later left Microsoft to follow that call — and built a tool now used by pastors and Christians for decades.

Your gifting might not look like “ministry.” But it might be exactly how God wants to reach the world.

What if God calls you to ministry… but not in the way you expected?
That was my story.

Since I was eleven, I felt called to ministry — but I never fit the traditional mold. I served as a youth pastor, media pastor, and associate pastor, but something in me knew God was preparing me for something different.

A mentor once told me, “Justin, you’d be a great lead pastor… but I think your biggest impact won’t come from a pulpit — it’ll come through business.”
That sentence changed everything.

I saw pastors everywhere who were exhausted, under-resourced, and overwhelmed. I saw a gap. And eventually, God gave me the courage to fill it.

From raising money, to hearing my son’s heartbeat on FaceTime in Madagascar, to receiving a $35,000 loan from a local business leader — God kept confirming the vision.

On October 7, 2014, we launched Ministry Pass.
We even trended on Twitter that day — above Ebola.

Today, more than 181,000 pastors have used Ministry Pass to preach with clarity and confidence.

This is the story of how God uses extraordinarily ordinary people to build His Kingdom in extraordinary ways.

This week on Ministry Minute, Justin Trapp shares how Transformation Church forgave $10 million in medical debt across the Carolinas through a partnership with Undue Medical Debt. A $50,000 gift became freedom for thousands of families — a Christmas miracle of grace in action.

In today’s Ministry Minute, Justin Trapp shares the incredible story of Project Give — a church-led initiative in Oregon, Ohio, that erased every bit of school lunch debt in their district.

With over 75% of schools in America carrying unpaid lunch debt, families face real financial strain, and students face shame, hunger, and embarrassment.

Churches across the country are stepping in:
• One Texas church paid off $10,000 in lunch debt
• Another in Ohio raised $15,000 to cover every student

These aren’t just financial gifts — they’re acts of compassion that tangibly preach the gospel.

Because when the church removes shame, even over something as small as lunch money, it reflects the heart of Jesus.

This week on Ministry Minute, Justin Trapp shares the inspiring story of Grace Church in Noblesville, Indiana, and their remarkable Choice Christmas Store.

Every December, Grace Church transforms its campus into a Christmas store where every price tag says “free.” Parents don’t wait in a line for handouts—they shop for their kids, wrap gifts, and leave knowing they provided Christmas for their family with dignity and joy.

Through their Grace Care Center, this church serves thousands of families year-round with food, clothing, and care—all built on the belief that people aren’t projects; they’re image-bearers.

This story is a powerful reminder that how we give can be just as meaningful as what we give. Because the most Christlike gift isn’t under the tree—it’s the love we show when people walk through our doors.

Listen now for a one-minute reminder that generosity and dignity go hand in hand.

In this week’s Ministry Minute, Justin Trapp shares the incredible story of Tony Buzbee — one of the nation’s most well-known attorneys — and the promise he made that changed an entire community.

Years before the headlines, Tony was a small-town Texas kid who made a simple promise to help rebuild his family’s church. Decades later, he returned — not to sue, but to serve. What followed was a powerful story of faith, restoration, and a reminder that you don’t have to be a pastor to build the Kingdom of God.

This is a story about keeping your word, honoring God’s call, and showing that no matter your platform or profession, faith in action changes lives.
