Our Story:
Hebrews 11:1 beautifully captures our mission at Leap of Faith Ministry:
"Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see."
Picture soaring through the sky on a motocross bike or strategizing in a paintball match—these exhilarating experiences mirror the leaps of faith we encourage in every aspect of life. We embody this truth by encouraging bold leaps of faith. Our events are object lessons, teaching young adults that faith requires courage and action.
At Leap of Faith, we firmly believe that leaps of faith are not confined to extreme sports or grand adventures. They manifest in the decisions we make every day—whether starting a new job, pursuing a dream, or reaching out to someone in need. Just as a motocross jump requires planning, determination, and a willingness to face the unknown, life too demands a leap of faith, stepping into the future with trust and conviction.
Meet our visionary founder, Jeff Krumm, whose passion drove the creation of Leap of Faith. Jeff envisioned a ministry where faith isn't a passive belief but an active, life-changing force. We mirror the essence of Hebrews 11:1, taking leaps into the unknown, trusting in the grander plan. Jeff's dream was not only to inspire daring acts of faith but also to instill the understanding that faith isn't merely an event; it's a lifestyle. Every day offers opportunities to jump into the plans that God has set in motion for us, embracing the uncertainties with faith and determination.
Through our mission, we strive to show that faith is not just an abstract notion—it's a vibrant, living force, encouraging us to leap forward in our daily lives. Join us in embracing the leaps of faith that await, as we navigate this incredible journey with courage, passion, and unwavering belief in the divine path.
PB&Jesus: A Flavorful Expression of Faith
PB&Jesus is a unique blend of Peanut Butter and Jesus, symbolizing our mission. It signifies that sharing our faith should be as simple and satisfying as making a PB&J sandwich. Through PB&J, we spread a whimsical yet theologically sound message—faith can be fun, accessible, and spiritually nourishing.
Global Vision, Local Touch
Leap of Faith Ministry leaves a local mission with a universal impact. We believe our message of Faith is Action should reach everyone, from our community to the farthest corners of the world. Each PB&J event and LOF gathering is a step towards this vision.
Building a Better World, One PB&J at a Time
Proceeds from PB&J and LOF events power our mission to Spread the Word and cultivate a Faith is Action attitude. We envision a world where individuals, inspired by Hebrews 11:1, take daring leaps in their faith journey. Additionally, we strive to support underprivileged children across the globe.
Join us at Leap of Faith Ministry, where every event is an invitation to leap into a life of purpose and unwavering faith.
Vision & Mission
At Leap Of Faith Ministry we feel compelled to share the Gospel and gather together to share our faith. Through events and engagements we will show the world the light and love of Jesus Christ.
Mission
Faith is Action
Vision
The vision of Leap of Faith Ministry is that of a universal ministry with local impact; encouraging individuals through bold object lessons, adventure learning, outreach ministry, and Christ centered teachings to live fulfilled lives through Christ and Faith.
What Is Your Leap Of Faith?
We believe that Faith starts as a thought, but is not fulfilled until acted upon. David didn't simply have great Faith because he Thought about slaying Goliath. David had Faith in Christ and knew that God was with him when he STEPPED OUT to face his giant. Noah had Faith and BUILT the ark...the list goes on. As a Christ following organization, we believe the ultimate Leap of Faith is living a Christ centered life. However, we believe that everyday everyone takes a Leap of Faith. The teen or young adult suffering from substance abuse, mental illness, moving to a new city/school to start over, leaving an abusive relationship, and the list goes on of examples where individual Leaps are being taken.
To be clear...we aren't promoting a Blind Leap of Faith. As Christ followers we believe there's an overwhelming amount of evidence to support a Christ centered life. What we encourage and promote is the sharing of experiences and testimonials from people that have taken a Leap. We've found that these shared experiences and testimonials give permission and provide encouragement for other individuals to take their own Leap.

Statement of Faith
BIBLE:
The Bible is God’s infallible written word, fully inspired by the Holy Spirit, and our supreme authority
(2 Timothy 3:16-17; 2 Peter 1:20-21).
GOD:
There is one true God, the creator of the universe and of mankind. He eternally exists in the three persons of the Trinity—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Each person of the Trinity equally possesses all the attributes of deity
(Deuteronomy 6:4; 2 Corinthians 13:14).
JESUS:
Jesus Christ is God. He is the eternal and living Word, who became man, being born into this world through the virgin, Mary. Jesus is perfectly God and perfectly human, united as one person. He lived a sinless life. Jesus died on the cross as our substitute, taking upon himself the punishment that we deserve. By his death, Jesus made a once-for-all atonement for sin. We receive forgiveness of sins by turning to Him in faith. He rose from the dead bodily, and ascended into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God the Father. He is the only mediator between man and God
(John 10:30; John 1:1-14; Luke 1:35; Romans 3:24; 1 Peter 1:3-5; Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 2:24; 1 Corinthians 15:3-7; Acts 1:9-10; Romans 8:34; 1 John 2:1-2).
SECOND COMING:
Jesus Christ will come again to the earth—personally, visibly and bodily—to complete and fulfill God’s plan
(Acts 1:11; Hebrews 9:28).
MANKIND:
Man is created in the image of God. He sinned by disobeying God and earned death as a result. All of mankind’s nature is corrupt. It is impossible for any person to make himself acceptable in God’s sight. Every person is in need of regeneration by the Holy Spirit
(Genesis 1:26-27; Romans 3:22-23; Ephesians 2:1-3).
THE HOLY SPIRIT:
The Holy Spirit has come into the world to reveal and glorify Christ, and to apply the saving work of Christ to men. His fullness, power, and control are appropriated in the believer’s life by faith. Every believer is called to live a holy and fruitful life by the power of the indwelling Spirit
(Romans 8:9; John 15:26; Galatians 5:22-23; Ephesians 5:18).
SALVATION:
The salvation of mankind is wholly a work of God’s grace. It is not the work, to any degree, of human striving, goodness, or religious activity. God imputes His righteousness to those who put their faith in Christ alone for their salvation. As a result, God declares them right in His sight. Each person must be born again of the Holy Spirit and can be assured of his or her salvation immediately upon trusting in Christ as Savior. The Word and the Spirit of God alone are the basis of this assurance
(Ephesians 2:8-10; 1 Peter 1:18-19).
THE CHURCH:
The visible Church is the gathering of God’s faithful and saved people for the purpose of worship, edification, mission, and use of gifts according to His word. Jesus Christ is the head of his Church. God encourages all of His people to assemble together locally and regularly for worship, participation in Christ’s ordinances, and the ministry of the Word for teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness
(Ephesians 1:22-23, 4:11-13; Hebrews 10:24-25; Romans 12:4-5).
OUR COMMISSION:
Jesus Christ commands all believers to be involved in the making of disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything Christ commanded. His purposes require that all worldly and personal ambitions be subservient to Him. This is true discipleship. Jesus also commissions this body of all believers (the Church of Christ) to operate as one; that is, to work together with united purpose and vision to spread the gospel of Christ to all nations (Matthew 28:19-20; Acts 1:8; 2 Corinthians 5:14-20; 1 Corinthians 12:12-14).
