In The Great Commission, Jesus calls every Christian to step out in faith and spread the Good News. This is faith in action! People who obey this command change their spiritual lives forever! It could be spreading the Good News to a neighbor or moving to another country to reach the people there. It could be sharing with less fortunate kids down the street or spreading the Word in a town two hours away. Wherever we go, every faithful Christian is compelled through obedience to share the Gospel. If you’re a believer in Jesus Christ, how has He called you to help with this important mission? Who has God put on your heart to share the gift of salvation? What small or large steps can you take, with the knowledge that Christ will be by your side, “to make disciples of all the nations”?
I know that God has a place and a job for every part of the church body. Ask God to reveal to you how He wants you to help further His Kingdom, Amen.
I now realize that NOT everyone has the opportunity to minister and witness to others through song.
However, they can PARTNER UP with a ministry that does just that.
The missionaries who have been called must depend on Jesus who convicts the hearts of those dedicated to helping spread God’s Word. I have always been uncomfortable asking for financial support. Now days, it seems that everyone is asking for money.
However, those of you who know me know my heart.
I am now looking for Ministry Partners that will support this ministry financially by committing to a set amount of financial blessing each month. Any gift will bless the ministry and many others. A commitment of $10.00, $20.00 or $50.00 a month will assist me in planning for the coming year and eventually become a full time Missionary for God. Any amount of support is appreciated. I do not want to put handcuffs on God.
My Ministry will be designed to give the person who doesn’t know Christ an opportunity to hear the gospel. Literally thousands of churches cater to the mature Christian. I believe Randy Norton Ministries should be one that is designed and dedicated to reach out to those who do not yet know Christ.
Christian Country Music fits perfect in the Cowboy and Country Culture. The Cowboy Church is where I turned from playing in bars for the “World” to Praising the Lord Jesus Christ. The people relate to the melodies the style of music and best of all they hear the words that talk about Jesus and the plan of salvation.
I also ask that you support the ministry by becoming a prayer warrior. The word of God never returns void and your prayers will be greatly appreciated. Join with me in spreading the good news.
Luke 8:1-3
The King of Kings and Lord of Lords came to earth and could have easily snapped His fingers to produce untold riches, but instead chose to depend totally on God and others to cover His personal and ministry expenses.Philippians 4:10-19
This is my favorite passage of all. Even though the apostle Paul was homeless and penniless most of the time, he possessed a supernatural peace and contentment very few have. Yes, he was thankful to the believers for their financial support, but he did not ask them to give because he had needs. This is how he put it: “Not that I seek the gift itself, but I seek for the profit which increases to your account” (v. 17). In other words, Paul didn’t need anything. His motive in asking was strictly for the Philippians’ benefit! Whether the believers understood or not, Paul was doing them a huge favor by helping them move some of their earthly treasure to their heavenly bank account. He finishes off by pointing upward and saying “and if I ever did have needs, I would simply go to my Father’s bank—full of glorious riches—to refill my supplies” (v. 19)

1. Personal Devotion
My personal and private growth in devotion to the Lord Jesus and His Word will always hold priority over the advancement of any public ministry or work.
2. Accountability
I reassert my commitment to the Lord, through a commitment to local church ministry involvement; and, the voluntary participation in a small group of Christian peers, with whom I will nurture openness in areas including: personal devotion, purity, family, work, and rest.
3. Proclamation
My ministry will always strive to promote the reputation and name of the Lord Jesus Christ over my own reputation; and the advancement of Christ’s Kingdom over my own career.
4. Performance
My public performance will always seek to emphasize ministry that is spiritually, morally and ethically pure.
5. Progress
I will regularly rededicate the development of my artistic craft(s) to the agenda of proclaiming Christ’s gospel and worshipping the Lord God Almighty.
