Mark Richard

Mark Richard knows firsthand the transforming power of Christ. For decades, he lived in the grip of sexual sin and identity confusion while outwardly appearing successful and fulfilled. But beneath the surface, he was spiritually bankrupt—until the grace and truth of God’s Word broke through the deception and set him free. Surrendering a decades-long same-sex relationship, Mark encountered the holiness of Jesus and the daily renewal of the Holy Spirit. 

Today, Mark is a steward of Scripture and a servant of others, equipping believers to walk in purity and wholeness through Christ. He ministers to men and women wrestling with sexual sin, as well as to families and church leaders longing to respond with both conviction and compassion. His teaching blends biblical depth, pastoral insight, and lived testimony, helping readers anchor their lives in God’s unchanging design. 

Mark’s ministry, through his website and social media, has reached thousands across the U.S. and around the world. He makes his home in Toledo, Ohio, near his daughter and granddaughter.
