About Us

Lost Lake Ministries



At Lost Lake Ministries we tell stories—stories that introduce newcomers to the familiar characters and plots from the Bible and the God who loves them—stories of people from our times who make Bible stories new and fresh to those who have heard them for years—stories that help people discover a foundation of perseverance, encouragement, hope, and joy from which this “greatest story ever told” can radiate through their lives.
