Charles Yerkes holds an MA in Theological Studies from Liberty University and is the founder of the Simple Not Shallow Ministry.
He has a passion for God and for helping others grow in their relationship with God.
For the past 9 years, he has been the chief cook, bottle washer, and senior coffee maker.
Why
The purpose of this online ministry is to help others grow in their relationship with God.
It is a ministry that celebrates the fact that entering into a relationship with God is simple enough for a child to understand, and yet living a life dedicated to this relationship requires you to learn, think, and act. In other words, to be anything but shallow.
The name Simple Not Shallow refers to faith. A faith that is simple enough that a child may have it (Mark 10:14,15) and one that has the wisdom of a serpent (Matthew 10:16).
In other words, one that is thought out, practical, and strong enough to face the real-world challenges that face us all.
