I'm a Hope Dealer
Greetings in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I'm Ray “Butch” Marvin, but some of my friends call me the "Hopedealer." The reason is because of the amazing hope that is found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Hope in the Gospel
So many people go through life in despair. Maybe you're one of them. Good news! There's hope in the Gospel! Jesus Christ came to forgive our sins, change our hearts, and make us part of His family forever. I can't think of a more hope-filled message. I'd love to share this message with you. If you want to listen to it right now, click here to go to my resource page. On the resource page, you can click on one of the "Hope Dealer" messages to listen to it now, or follow the instructions to download it .
Turning Believers into Hopedealers
I love preaching—especially preaching the glorious Gospel. When I preach to Christians, I often challenge them to be peddlers of hope in their daily lives. I challenge them to become "Hope dealers" themselves. I created a 4-part preaching series about this called:
Becoming a HOPE Dealer
The individual messages in the Hopedealer series are:
| 1 | You Could Be the ONE | Listen to an audio excerpt* | |
| 2 | You Are the ONE | Listen to an audio excerpt* | |
| 3 | What is in Your HAND | Listen to an audio excerpt* | |

Go to the resources page if you would like to listen to (or download) the messages for free. On the resources page, you can also purchase "Becoming a Hopedealer" on CD.
I have been called a freelance preacher and an evangelist. I refer to myself simply as a guy who loves Jesus and has an incredible love to share Him with the world. I see myself as a blue-collar guy in a white-collar job who loves people, projects and sharing the GOSPEL. I feel called to lead the lost to the church and the church to the lost. God reached down and pulled me from my sin and I am forever grateful.
I would love to bring "Becoming a Hopedealer" or other gospel messages to your church or organization. You can click here to learn more about me, or to check my references. You can also check out my speaking schedule, or contact me.
May the Lord fill you with hope and help you bring genuine hope to others.
