Love Life Ministries is a non-denominational, Biblically-centered, and evangelical ministry that was founded in 2005 by Rev. Dale Kaufman.
It exists to proclaim the Love that gives us Life, to prepare teens (and adults) for the kind of love life that God wants for them, and to energize Biblical intimacy in marriages.
Those goals are accomplished through preaching and teaching at churches, camps, conferences, or wherever people need to hear the Good News of Jesus and His love for them! One of the founding tenets of LLM has been to provide quality speaking services to churches and organizations that don't have the budget to bring in the "big guns" type of speaker and pay them thousands of dollars for a teen camp or a church marriage retreat. But are those churches any less deserving of quality speaking and preaching? Of course not! So, at the heart of LLM is the desire to minister in whatever venue possible, and to do so at the lowest possible price. We work individually with churches and camps in order not to break their budget. Usually, just expenses and a relatively small honorarium is requested, but money is never an object to coming in and ministering the love of God to people!
Rev. Dale Kaufman (or Pastor Dale, as he prefers to be called) has been involved in ministry since 1979, working primarily with teens and families. He is a 1987 graduate of Colorado Christian University with a Bachelor's Degree in Youth Ministry, and has been on the ministry staff of churches in New Mexico, Colorado, Oregon, and Michigan. He is an ordained elder in the Free Methodist Church, and he holds the title of Southern Michigan Conference Evangelist, which gives him the freedom to conduct this type of traveling and speaking ministry. He has been married for going on 15 years and has two sons.
Pastor Dale has a huge heart for God and for ministering His grace and love to people, especially teens and married couples. He has a wide variety of experience in ministering to teens in settings as diverse as churches, schools, and juvenile detention centers!
His heart for energizing Biblical intimacy in marriages is most clearly seen in his capacity as a member of the Board of Directors for TheMarriageBed.com, an online ministry whose discussion forums have a membership topping 10,000 people! In addition to being on the Board, he is also very active as a moderator and a member of the Oversight Group for TheMarriageBed discussion forums. He has been involved with TheMarriageBed for over six years, and is much sought after for his Biblical and grace-filled viewpoints on marital sexual intimacy.
