Thank you for visiting our page! 

We love watching Jesus change lives! As students at the University of Illinois (Bruce) and Texas Wesleyan University (Julie), God used the ministry of Cru to transform our lives and give us a vision for how He could use us to help change the world. By the time we graduated from college, we both knew He was calling us to share the love of Christ by becoming staff members with Cru.

In 1982, we began what was to become a 35-year adventure, performing with evangelistic bands, including our family band and our boys' band, 3union.  We witnessed God use our concerts to encounter thousands of lives around the world with the Good News of the Gospel! 14 years into that adventure, the Lord blessed us by unexpectedly expanding our scope. Not only were we able to continue our music ministry, but we were invited to become part of the speaker team for FamilyLife’s Weekend To Remember marriage conferences. Those events quickly became a passion area for both of us, and we are now entering our 29th year serving on the team. We’ve seen the Holy Spirit restore countless marriages and witnessed tens of thousands of couples surrender their lives and families to Christ!

In 2021, Julie and I began a new role as Development Representatives with the Jesus Film Project, helping fuel the mission financially by working closely with current and potential major donors to the ministry. Over its 45-year history, The Jesus Film has become the premier tool for world evangelization, with over 2,200 language translations of the film completed and 1,800+ missionary partner organizations utilizing its resources worldwide. In 2024 alone, over 767,711,625 people viewed JFP media, with 22,357,788 million of them indicating decisions for Christ, and the establishment of 223,578 new churches! 

All our ministry work is made possible by an amazing team of people who share our hearts for seeing Christ transform lives. These faithful partners commit to praying for us, encouraging us, and investing in our ministry regularly. They are critical to our efforts, and we consider each like family! Without our team, we wouldn't be able to focus our time and energy on the ministry full-time. The return blessing is that our partners can greatly expand their impact for Christ, far beyond their normal circles of influence. Together, we are helping accelerate the fulfillment of Christ's Great Commission and hastening the return of Jesus! 

We would love for you to prayerfully consider joining our team and help us spread the Gospel to everyone, everywhere! For more information, feel free to contact us using our contact information below.

“Have you ever considered giving in the most tax-smart way? 

Many generous partners like you are discovering how to maximize their kingdom impact—not just for Cru, but also for their local church and other ministries—without ever touching their checking or savings accounts.

Here are three powerful ways to give smarter:

  • Stock Gifts – Avoid capital gains and give more.
  • Donor Advised Fund – Streamline your giving with tax efficiency.
  • IRA Giving (age 70½+) – Reduce taxable income while advancing the gospel.

Cru Foundation is a ministry of Cru designed to serve you with strategic, tax-smart giving solutions at no cost to you! Our mission is to help ensure more of your generosity fuels the Great Commission, not taxes.
