Soldier of Faith Ministries - Randy Crawford on Strength, Service, and Christ

What happens when a soldier trades the battlefield for the mission field? On this heartfelt episode of the ActsSocial Podcast, host Chance Olivas sits down with Randy Crawford, founder of Soldier of Faith Ministries. Randy’s story is one of transformation, resilience, and obedience to God’s calling—a testimony that reminds us that no season of life is wasted when placed in God’s hands.

A Journey Shaped by Service

Randy begins by sharing his time in the military and how those experiences shaped his discipline, strength, and perspective on life. While military service trained him to fight battles with courage, it was his relationship with Christ that taught him to fight life’s spiritual battles with faith and love.

He reflects on the turning point when God shifted his heart from combat to compassion:

“I realized my mission wasn’t about defeating enemies anymore—it was about serving people, standing for truth, and pointing others to Christ.”

This moment of surrender laid the foundation for Soldier of Faith Ministries, an outreach dedicated to equipping believers to walk boldly in their faith while offering real-life support for those in need.

Walking in Faith, Not Fear

One of Randy’s recurring themes is courage—not the kind found on the battlefield, but the kind rooted in trusting God even when circumstances seem uncertain.

He tells listeners,

“God never asked us to have it all figured out. He asked us to trust Him enough to take the next step.”

Through discipleship programs, mentorship, and community service, Randy encourages others to live this principle daily—choosing faith over fear, trust over control, and service over self.

Soldier of Faith Ministries: Living Out the Gospel

The ministry goes beyond Sunday sermons. Soldier of Faith Ministries is active in communities, meeting people where they are with both spiritual encouragement and practical help. Whether it’s guiding someone through Scripture, mentoring young men and women, or providing resources to struggling families, Randy’s team embodies the Gospel in action.

“Being a soldier for Christ doesn’t mean we’re fighting people. It means we’re standing in the gap—praying, loving, and serving those who need it most.”

For Randy, ministry isn’t confined to the pulpit; it’s lived out in everyday interactions.

Why ActsSocial Matters?

During the conversation, Randy highlights the importance of platforms like ActsSocial, a Christian-based social media space designed to build up rather than tear down. He sees ActsSocial as a vital tool in a world often dominated by negativity and division.

“We need places online that reflect the Kingdom of God—places where believers can encourage one another, share testimonies, and unite in purpose. ActsSocial gives us that.”

By using ActsSocial, Soldier of Faith Ministries can extend its reach, foster deeper connections, and inspire others to walk boldly in their faith journeys.

Randy’s story is more than just inspiration—it’s a challenge. He urges believers to step into their calling, however big or small, and to use their gifts to serve others.

“Every believer is called to be a soldier of faith. You may not wear a uniform, but you carry the armor of God. And the world needs you to stand strong, right where you are.”
