Welcome!

EPIC (Exiles Pardoned In Christ) Ministries, Inc., was founded by Jerry and Donna Williams. Jerry was the founder and former president of Harvest Ministries, which was established in 1977. Harvest was a forerunner in Contemporary Christian Music and the predecessor of EPIC Ministries. Jerry and Donna are committed to seeing the saving and healing power of Jesus Christ once again sweep across America. By God's eternal grace this ministry will be a safe haven for those who have long believed the lie of the enemy that because of their past sins and mistakes God is unable to use them any longer to establish His purposes for them and fulfill His destiny in their lives.

Jeremiah 29:11 embodies the heartbeat of EPIC:

"For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give you a future and a hope."

The Treasure Hunter, an article written by Victoria Boyson, (www.boyson.org), is one of the best explanations of the heartbeat of EPIC Ministries and with permission, we include the following excerpt from that article (thank you Boyson Ministries):

"As an apostolic generation emerges, we should see in them a people who are driven to recover and release the destiny of others. They will look past obvious weaknesses to find priceless treasure hidden in their hearts.

The apostolic man or woman tirelessly searches through the refuse of the devil to discover in the people the enemy has abused and entangled in sin, the hidden treasures awaiting him. He possesses the heart and mind of Christ and views people through the eyes of redemption. He is a treasure hunter and he views the world quite differently than most. He does not look for his treasure in the storehouses of palaces, but in those who have been discarded and abandoned by the enemy."

EPIC Ministries believes in the hope, mercy, forgiveness and grace that are found in the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ, Who is the Son of God and reigns as King of kings and Lord of lords. We are fully committed to sharing His hope, mercy, forgiveness, and grace through the avenues of evangelism, discipleship, home and world missions, and a practical ministry of helps, healing and restoration with everyone who is weak, heavy laden, sick, diseased, broken, scattered or lost in their relationship with the Lord.

VISION, MISSION, AND PURPOSE
The vision, mission and purpose of EPIC Ministries:

• To expose and eradicate the lies of the enemy that keep exiles in physical, spiritual, and emotional chains.
• To boldly proclaim the truth of God's infinite mercy, grace and forgiveness
• To plant and cultivate an expectation that there is indeed a future and a hope for exiles (the gifts and call of God are irrevocable - Romans 11:29)
• To ultimately lead these spiritually wounded prisoners of war back into effective service with a grateful and confident song of hope and praise in their hearts.
• To be a "Jonathan" to the David destiny on the lives of leaders in the body of Christ.
