Speakers and Worship
Keynote Speakers:
Tonya Marvin, founder of Transformed, Revived, and Renewed Ministries, finds joy in teaching the church. She has been called to encourage and equip God’s children by being a catalyst to mature the saints to the full and complete measure of Christ (Ephesians 4:11-13). Tonya delights in helping others to hear the voice of God and to be empowered by the Holy Spirit to be disciples who make disciples (Jeremiah 33:3, Matthew 28:19). Tonya loves witnessing God transform lives, revive hearts, and renew minds (Romans 12:2). She is highly gifted in the prophetic and ministry of healing and spends much of her time equipping Christ followers to step into their personal calling. Tonya has been married to her husband Mark for 33 years and they reside outside of Findlay, Ohio.
Pastor Tim Johnson has been in ministry for 25 years, 18 of which have been spent pastoring Pfrimmer’s Chapel UMC in Corydon, Indiana. Early in their ministry, the Holy Spirit asked Pastor Tim and his wife, Pam, if they wanted a “normal” ministry or a “supernatural” one. As they got on their knees and prayed together, they chose “supernatural” at that very moment! Since that decision, they have seen the Holy Spirit move in their life and ministry in incredibly anointed ways, transforming a country church of 85 in one worship service into a church of as much as 1,000+ attending 10 weekly services. Now, there are too many members to count due to all of the ministries around the globe, including 12 countries across 4 continents.
Pastor Tim also serves as co-founder and coach of The Joshua Center, a ministry of coaching and training leaders that reaches into 4 continents. He will soon complete his first book, Church by the Creek: Flowing in the Spirit. Pastor Tim and Pam have three adult children: a son, Taylor, and daughter in-law, Colleen; and two daughters, Merritt and Olivia. They also have a small pony (otherwise known as a Great Dane) named Meshach.
Worship Leadership:

Katie's Workshop: The Word of God
Most likely, we all have heard that reading the word of God is a very important part of being a Christian. But do you ever struggle with reading the Word? Do you ever get board in the reading? Do you question how to interpret difficult passages? In this session, you will learn of mistakes we often make in reading and how to make positive changes. The hope is for you to leave this session desiring to read the Word and trusting that as you do, you will come to know God better.
Jeanne Martin is a mom of 3 siblings adopted from Korea, grandmother to 4, and a lover of Jesus. At her home church in Plymouth, MI, she is the Prayer Ministry Coordinator and serves on the church council. She is part of the Aldersgate Renewal Ministries leadership where she oversees the prayer ministry and serves on the executive committee. Jeanne is a gifted teacher, a prayer warrior, and an encourager.
Jeanne's Workshop: Interactive Prayer
Join this session to enjoy Holy Spirit-led prayer opportunities. Actively listen to others and the Holy Spirit, and then pray with and for one another with authority and confidence as the Holy Spirit leads.
Katrina Shull began her journey with the Lord in 1987 while living in Texas. While there, Katrina served as an assistant care group leader teaching the Word of God and was part of the intercessory prayer group. After moving back to Ohio, Katrina taught and served at women’s encounters in the ministry of salvation, restoration, healing, deliverance, and prayer. She served as chairperson for the Findlay-Hancock County National Day of Prayer from 2014-2017. Katrina is currently recognized as a minister of the Word of God, head intercessor, and on the board of trustees at her church.
Katrina's Workshop: Do You Trust Him?
If Jesus straight up asked you, "Do you trust me?" how would you respond? Join this session to hear what took place when Jesus asked Katrina this very question. She will share about her encounter and dig deeply into thoughts such as: Do you trust the Lord, or do you often trust in your ability to handle day-to-day living on your own? Do you trust the Lord even when His will is not your own? Do you trust the Lord with all your heart?
Andrea Stateler has served with TRR Ministries since 2018 and has been a member of the advisory board since 2021. She leads a women’s Bible study and has years of service in children’s ministry. She has been a part of the praise and worship team at her home church. Andrea worked for 16 years as a dental hygienist when she began feeling led by the Holy Spirit to leave this position. She stepped out in faith and went home to help her husband, Anthony, on their farm and be a stay-at-home mom to their 3 children Peyton, Casen, and Axton. Much to their surprise, God had something more in store and brought their youngest child, Gracen, to complete their family through adoption from foster care in 2020.
Andrea's Workshop: I Know that I know What I know... I Think
Are you prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks the reason for your hope? Can you express more than your feelings if someone were to ask you, "Does God really exist?" Surprisingly, many Christ-followers stumble over our words when asked questions like these. Come and learn the basics of apologetics in ths session. We will start with answering often-asked questions and together build confidence in our responses. You really can know what you know and give a beautiful response to those who are questioning the Christian faith.
Nathan Buck is passionate about helping people know God’s Word, discover their design, and accomplish their calling. After 16 years working in staffing and recruiting for multinational clients, 11 years as the founding pastor of a congregation, and serving on regional ministry commissions, God called him to cultivate a culture of people development. Nathan now serves as Director of Discipleship for the Eastern Region Churches of God. He owns a hobby business in ceramics and uses art to help people consider that they are made in the image of God, infused with His design and purpose. He also co-leads a local community of disc golfers and enjoys life-building conversations with other players.
Nathan's Workshop: Designed to...
If someone asked you, "Who are you?" and "What are you doing here?" how would you respond? When we look at ourselves in the mirror, look at another human being, look at or anything in creation, we are seeing an intentional design that gives shape, identity, and purpose. We are told by Paul, as he wrote to the church in Ephesus, that we are "God's workmanship, created in Jesus to do good works for which He has prepared in advance for us to do." (Ephesians 2:10). Why does your design matter? What has God planned in advance for you? How do you live that out at the same time you are still figuring it out? This session will invite you to explore these questions as we see simple materials like clay and water become something more.
In 1998, Mark Barrow found himself searching for more. He felt that his ministry as a worship leader had become dry and that he was just going through the motions. That year, Mark attended an Aldersgate Renewal Conference (ARM) where he experienced the fullness of the Holy Spirit and saw and felt the love of the Father like he had never experienced before. That experience took him on a journey serving the ministry of ARM. In 2000, he, his wife Betty, and their son Christopher moved to Tennessee to be closer to the ARM headquarters. In 2016, Mark accepted the position of CEO for ARM. Today, he continues to serve in leading the ministry to provide opportunities for every follower of Jesus to experience transforming growth through the love of the Father by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Mark's Workshop: You Are Chosen, Just As You Are
If you are feeling like you have missed the mark and struggle with feelings of unworthiness, this session is for you. Many of us live our lives as orphans rather than receiving the love and acceptance of our Father God. We sometimes have a hard time believing that God really love us or sees us as worthy to be called His child. Together, we will take a fresh look at the parable of the lost son (Luke 15:11-31) and rediscover the truth that God loves you deeply and desires to have relationship with you. You do not need to clean up your life before turning to God. He has chosen you just as you are.
