A Surge In Growth: The Lord has used the new Truthstream Community to reconnect me to the Body of Christ in a way I didn’t expect but deeply needed. Through the fellowship, the shared hunger for truth, and the Christ‑centered conversations, He has drawn my heart back into meaningful relationship with believers who strengthen, encourage, and sharpen my walk in Christ. What began as a simple platform has become a place of genuine connection, reminding me that His Body is alive, present, and essential to my spiritual growth. Thank you for being part of that grace. -TSM Member
The 2027 Ministry Merger: IOM America has been diligently working to merge all of our content into a unified library system, making it significantly easier for onlookers to access more than 2,000 media productions, over 9,000 publications, and the growing collection of IM Writer’s Forum contributions. This comprehensive archive represents years of ministry labor, now being brought together into one accessible platform. Our goal is to have the full system ready by mid to late 2027, providing a streamlined, user‑friendly resource for the Body of Christ.
Next Forthcoming Book: Judge Mark T. Boonstra and I have been developing an extensive publication scheduled for release during the 2028 election year. The book, America, The Shaken Foundation, reflects years of collaborative research and writing. Based on the samples shared on our Substack channel, Identity Politics, this publication is likely to be a success, both scholarly and deeply practical—challenging Americans to return to the foundational principles that shaped our nation.

Family Update: This past summer has been one of the most challenging seasons in our 26 years of ministry. Between ongoing health issues, multiple basement floodings, AC system damage, financial pressures, and other difficulties that would need more space to detail, the strain has been real. Yet through every setback, the Lord has sustained us, reminding us that His strength is made perfect in weakness and His faithfulness does not falter, even in the hardest months.
One difficulty our supporters have specifically asked about is my heart surgery. After a summer marked by increasing weakness in my heart, my cardiologist referred me to a well‑known heart surgeon for a new procedure called Pulsed Field Ablation. Although I felt some understandable anxiety about undergoing heart surgery, we chose to move forward. On September 25th, the procedure was completed. While my heart will be closely monitored for the next four years through an implant, I must tell you—my heart has not felt this strong since before my diagnosis of heart failure eighteen years ago.
Jane and I want to thank each of you who prayed for us, remained consistent in your financial support, and stood faithfully by our side throughout this challenging season. Your steadfastness has been a profound encouragement to us.
The Bible Study: Jane and Jess have faithfully led the IOM America Ladies Bible Study in our community for multiple years, and the fruit of their labor is unmistakable. I have watched the steady spiritual growth in the women who attend, and I must say, the impact of this outreach has been nothing short of supernatural. The testimonies emerging from this group are touching lives far beyond the study itself. I am deeply blessed by the dedication these two women demonstrate—loving the attendees with unwavering faithfulness and a relentless commitment to Truth.
The Men & Warfare Study: Our home church has chosen to launch a church‑wide men’s study using The Men & Warfare Study, the resource the Lord led me to write twenty‑one years ago and which we revised and updated this year. Please pray for the men who have committed to attend. Every man who returns to biblical manhood strengthens the Kingdom of God and brings lasting impact to his home, his church, and his community.
