Rescued Not Arrested — Organization Profile
Rescued Not Arrested is a 501(c)(3) Christian nonprofit prison ministry that exists to reach incarcerated people and their loved ones with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the Great Commission. The ministry serves youth and adults in jails, prisons, correctional facilities, and re-entry settings through Bible distribution, evangelistic outreach, testimony, chaplain support, and volunteer service.
The organization is based in Phoenix, Arizona, and serves incarcerated people and families across Arizona, the United States, and international ministry locations. Its public materials describe work with county jail facilities, the Arizona State Juvenile Correctional Department, chaplains nationwide, and mission outreach connected to countries including Belize, China, Costa Rica, Kenya, Kerala India, Mexico, Nigeria, Panama, and Zimbabwe.
Rescued Not Arrested’s ministry began from the story of founder Roger Munchian, who developed a passion for outreach to people in jail and prison after his own experience of incarceration and spiritual transformation. The organization’s message emphasizes that people can be “rescued” through Christ rather than defined by arrest, conviction, or incarceration. Its work is aimed at both the incarcerated and the loved ones who carry fear, grief, and uncertainty outside prison walls.
A central part of the ministry is providing English and Spanish NIV Bibles and NIV Life Application Study Bibles to inmates and chaplains free of charge. Rescued Not Arrested states that it provides Bibles upon request from inmates and chaplains nationwide, with Life Application Study Bibles connected to completion of a nine-lesson correspondence Bible study through American Bible Academy. The ministry also provides Bibles to jail and juvenile correctional settings and has supplied chaplains with large quantities of Scripture resources.
Rescued Not Arrested also serves through re-entry support, facility outreach, baptisms, testimony sharing, volunteer service, and practical care. Its re-entry program is connected with Arizona 2nd Chance programs in state, federal, and county facilities, providing resources for inmates preparing for release. The ministry also notes that it provides prescription eyeglasses and eye exams for inmates needing vision screening.
People can engage with Rescued Not Arrested by donating, volunteering, supporting Bible distribution, serving through approved prison outreach opportunities, participating in ministry events, praying for incarcerated people and families, or contacting the ministry about chaplain requests and service opportunities. Its distinct contribution is a Gospel-centered prison ministry that combines Scripture distribution, correctional facility outreach, re-entry support, testimony, international missions, and practical care for incarcerated people and their loved ones.

Frontiers USA — Organization Profile
Frontiers USA is a Christian mission organization focused on sharing the gospel among Muslim peoples with limited access to Christian witness. The organization’s stated mission is to inspire transformational movements to Christ within least-reached Muslim people groups by sending teams to catalyze change. Frontiers describes its work with the phrase “with love and respect, inviting all Muslim peoples to follow Jesus.”
The organization’s core focus is recruiting, training, sending, and serving long-term teams who live in Muslim communities. Frontiers prioritizes peoples and places with the least access to the gospel and seeks to make disciples among Muslim peoples who do not know the saving message of Jesus Christ. Its approach emphasizes long-term presence, team-based ministry, disciple making, and locally appropriate strategies in the places where workers serve.
Frontiers USA is based in Phoenix, Arizona, and is part of a wider Frontiers network with national offices in multiple countries. The U.S. organization serves churches, mission candidates, long-term workers, short-term participants, and supporters who want to engage Muslim peoples. Its ministry scope includes regions of the Muslim world such as North Africa, the Sahel and Sub-Saharan Africa, Türkiye and the Balkans, the Middle East and Arabian Peninsula, Central Asia and the Caucasus, Southwest Asia, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
The organization operates through a process it describes as recruit, train, send, and serve. Frontiers coaches across the United States help identify followers of Christ who share the organization’s heart for Muslims. Training prepares workers for language learning, disciple making, personal development, and healthy team dynamics. Teams are then sent to least-reached Muslim people groups, while pastoral coaches and other support staff serve workers and their children through the challenges of cross-cultural ministry.
A distinctive part of Frontiers USA’s model is field-governed, locally led, team-based mission work among Muslim peoples. The organization says team leaders make decisions for their own context and that teams serve with a common regional vision while adopting locally appropriate strategies. Frontiers also emphasizes coaching, accountability, grace-filled relationships, and a focus on planting healthy, reproducing churches through disciples who make more disciples.
People can engage with Frontiers USA by praying, giving to the Frontiers Mission Fund, supporting individual workers, exploring short-term trips, beginning the long-term application process, attending events, using resources, or helping a local church take next steps in mission engagement. Churches can connect with Frontiers for opportunities to send, support, and mobilize people for ministry among least-reached Muslim communities.

Healthy Churches Network — Organization Profile
Healthy Churches Network (HCN) is a ministry organization that helps congregations and Christian leaders pursue church health through coaching, written resources, and seminars. The organization describes its purpose as assisting churches in becoming healthier and building a network where leaders can learn from one another and make a greater impact in their communities. Based in Phoenix, Arizona, HCN serves church leaders around the United States, and its director’s teaching ministry has also included seminars in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Germany, and Thailand.
The ministry’s core emphasis is not simply organizational technique, but helping leaders focus on intimacy with Jesus and follow His lead. That spiritual focus shapes HCN’s coaching approach, which centers on prayer, personal discipleship, and leadership health. The organization presents church health as something that grows out of the spiritual and relational life of leaders, not only from ministry systems. Its stated vision is to connect leaders in ways that strengthen both their churches and their witness in their communities.
Healthy Churches Network operates through a mix of one-on-one and team coaching, teaching events, and practical ministry tools. Its site highlights Christian coaching for leaders and leadership teams, along with a library of books, assessments, downloadable documents, newsletters, webinars, and seminars. These resources include leadership assessments, discipleship and coaching assessments, the PH Meter, and a prayer resource called Heal Our Nation. Together, those tools show a strategy that combines spiritual formation with practical evaluation for pastors, ministry staff, and church leadership teams.
Dean Trune serves as the director of Healthy Churches Network. HCN identifies him as a certified life coach who works with Christian leaders and leadership teams, helping them focus on intimacy with Jesus. The organization’s biographical material also connects his ministry to decades of prayer seminars and teaching in many states and several countries. That background helps explain the network’s strong emphasis on prayer, personal character, and long-term leadership development rather than short-term church growth techniques alone.
People can engage with Healthy Churches Network in several ways. Church leaders can explore coaching, use the available assessments, attend or host seminars, read Dean Trune’s books, or make use of downloadable ministry materials. Supporters can also contribute financially through the organization’s donation page. For churches looking for outside encouragement, spiritual coaching, or practical tools for leadership reflection, HCN presents itself as a resource aimed at healthier leaders, healthier teams, and healthier churches.
