The American Evangelistic Association invites those committed to advancing the Cause of Christ in American and Around the World to apply for association with the organization. The AEA was founded in 1954 as an association of Churches, Pastors, Missionaries and Trained Laity.
If you are a person called by the Mighty Lord of Hosts to join us in the Harvest, we welcome you. You must be of good report, well recommended and have a history that demonstrates clearly that you personally have a relationship with the Lord and know how to handle His Sword of Truth.
Our statement of faith is clearly set forth. We do not quibble about those issues that divide many, but with the major tenants of the Church, we allow no compromise. We exist to proclaim the Good News that the Kingdom of God is here, win the lost, console the weak and helpless, build up and equip the Body for combat. We are on a mission to penetrate the darkest regions of the enemy and bring the Light of Truth to any who will hear.
The Credentials Committee evaluates rigorously all candidates for AEA credentials.
AEA’s Credentials Committee receives applications, contacts all references, and in some instances contacts references of references. Evaluation is then made as to work and learning experiences, as well as service in aspects of Christian ministry. The candidate is interviewed by one or more of the committee. The committee’s conclusion is then given to the candidate.
The AEA Credentialing Committee/Board reserves the right to revoke any membership on demand as it pertains to all credentials, documents, and/or affiliations, or actions contrary to the AEA Mission/Statement, Doctrine, Statement of Faith, Code of Ethics, and Ordinances of the Church of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
