About Us

The Purpose of This Ministry is to clearly and relevantly proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ so
that persons of all ages may experience new birth through faith in Jesus and transforming life through
the power of the Holy Spirit and may become faithful witnesses of Jesus Christ.
  
This is a faith ministry dependant on freewill offerings, honorariums and the support of churches and 
individuals who choose to partner with this ministry.
  
Through preaching, workshops, music and drama Roy shares the gospel with people of all ages and
works to equip God's people to effectively bear witness to Christ today.  Roy has spoken in groups
of all sizes - from youth groups to a Promise Keepers stadium event, from local churches to a local
fair.  He has also spoken in many different denominations in several states.
  

Born in 1963, Roy gave his heart to Christ at an early age and by

age 11 began to know God's call to preach. From the beginning his

heart burned with the desire to preach as an evangelist. Roy became

a certified layspeaker as a teenager. He graduated from Indiana

University of Pennsylvania in 1985 and received a Master of Divinity

degree from Asbury Theological Seminary in 1989. Roy is an ordained

Elder in the United Methodist Church. He pastored full-time for seven

years. In answer to years of prayer and preparation he was appointed

to serve as a General Evangelist full-time in 1996. Roy is accountable to the Board of Directors

 of Roy Gearhart Cutting Edge Ministries and to the Western Pennsylvania Conference of the 

U. M. Church.

Janice and Roy have been married since 1983 and since then

have been partners together in all phases of ministry.  Janice

gave her life to Christ as a teen. She has grown to be a gifted speaker

and teacher. Janice has played church music since she was twelve.

Her talent with piano and keyboard has enabled them to develop

a music and worship leading ministry through which they blend

contemporaryand traditional elements. Janice is also the ministry's

office manager.
