About Us
Kevin Rische received his B.A. in Organizational Behavior from Concordia University, St. Paul, Minnesota. He is currently working on his M.A. in Christian Apologetics. Jill Rische is Dr. Walter Martin's eldest daughter. She received her B.A. in Biblical Literature with an emphasis on the Old Testament and the Hebrew Language, from Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, Oklahoma. She is currently completing her M.A. in Humanities/History. Kevin worked for ten years as a sales/marketing representative. He managed a five state, multi-million dollar territory for a national distributor. Jill was a Library Specialist for the St. Paul Public library where she researched hundreds of different topics, answered a wide variety of questions daily, and contributed to collection development.  In 1992, the Risches were one of the first families chosen by the State of Minnesota to be part of a pilot program geared to provide the developmentally disabled with a chance for a better life. They offered care to a blind, profoundly retarded, autistic young man in their home for four years before starting their own business, Family Homes Plus, Inc., which offered an alternative to nursing home care for the elderly. Kevin and Jill live in St. Paul, Minnesota with their daughter Christina, and son Justin. Walter Martin Ministries has grown steadily since it was first founded in 1998. We are now at 250,000+ hits per month on the site, and Dr. Martin is heard on radio stations across the United States. In addition to this, Library Journal recently listed The Kingdom of the Cults as #3 on their "Books in demand from Libraries and Bookstores" list (on the Occult). It has been forty-one years and it's still going strong. We are very grateful to everyone involved in supporting this ministry. Thank you! Walter Martin Ministries focuses on evangelism and education through the rich resource provided by Dr. Martin's tapes, lectures, and books. We hope to provide answers to those searching for spiritual direction in their lives, as well as encourage and educate Christians to stand up for their faith. Jill has completed two books, the first one entitled; Through the Windows of Heaven, highlights her father's best lectures and presents them in an inspirational format. Her book has been endorsed by Dr. Charles Swindoll and was published by Broadman & Holman in July, 1999. Her second book, Jack Star and the Secret Door (Kingdom Publishers, 2003), is a youth fantasy adventure in the tradition of The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. Kevin and Jill are the Managing Editors on th 2003 Edition of The Kingdom of the Cults. Jill is currently at work on a third book to be released in 2008. Walter Martin Ministries is a Minnesota based non profit corporation started on June 12, 1998, to continue the work of Dr. Martin--providing important answers and reasons for faith. We hope you will support us in this effort. |
