The resources on this app are provided free of charge thanks to the generous support of individuals committed to sharing the hope of Jesus. Our desire is to offer the Light of Jesus through triage, treatment, and teaching. Encouraging and equipping others about God’s trustworthiness and faithfulness, no matter how difficult the circumstances, through the variety of free resources we produce and distribute. So far, we have seen Light of Jesus touch millions of broken people worldwide through our resources. Helping one more person at a time find hope. Scripture is clear that we will all go through some sort of hardship or suffering during the course of our lives (Hebrews 12:7-11, 1 Peter 4:12). How will you respond when suffering invades your life? Are you prepared? Will you be able to see the Beauty in the Brokenness? MARKINC Ministries is the beauty that was raised from the brokenness of losing their baby boy, Mark. When Chuck and Sharon Betters lost their sixteen-year-old son in 1993 in a tragic car accident, they could feel the hemorrhaging in their broken hearts. Encouragers came alongside them in the darkness to triage the hemorrhaging and remind them that God is sovereign and you can trust Him. That was the beginning of MARKINC, Making Abundant Riches Known In the Name of Christ, in honor of their son. While the roots of this ministry were planted in a painful, broken place, tremendous beauty has resulted in the help and hope shared with millions of people around the world. The MARKINC Family has been charged with offering the Light of Jesus through triage, treatment, and teaching. Helping one more person at a time find hope. We offer triage to help stop the hemorrhaging of a broken heart and show you that you are not alone through our Help and Hope podcasts and Ask Dr. Betters videos. The Help and Hope podcast is a collection of real stories from real people who have been through darkness in this broken world and found their light in Jesus. The Ask Dr. Betters videos feature Dr. Chuck F. Betters providing biblically sound answers to your tough questions. Questions like “Will I Know My Loved Ones In Heaven?” and “What Happens When We Die?” You can find treatment through Anchored Virtual Biblical Counseling. Experienced counselors are available to help you stitch the wound and move toward hope. Helping you travel by faith, with the hope of Jesus, we offer teaching through the In His Grip Sermons and the Daily Treasure Devotional. In His Grip is the preaching and teaching of Dr. Chuck F. Betters. With over 50 years behind the pulpit, Dr. Betters has consistently taught that God is sovereign and that you can trust Him when you are in His grip. The Daily Treasure Devotional, written by Sharon Betters and guests, embraces the power of God’s Word to encourage, equip, and energize us to walk by faith in the pathway God has marked out for us, no matter how difficult it may be. We hope this app brings you peace and hope, whether you are going through a difficult time or know someone who is suffering. May you see the light of Jesus through these resources. Please feel free to connect with us, submit a question to Ask Dr. Betters, leave a comment, or join our prayer group directly within the app! Mobile app version: 6.22.1
