Austin Gardner

President at Alignment Ministries

Missionary mentor, Maxwell Certified Leader, Coach, Speaker.

Certified Behavioral Consultant, DISC


I'm deeply devoted to Christ's cause and passionate about spreading the gospel globally. Decades ago, I realized that reaching unreached areas requires a shift in perspective, which led to my "salvation to reproduction" strategy.

Starting as a boy in Tennessee, I yearned to contribute to global gospel preaching. Over five decades, I've witnessed lives transformed through church planting and education in 50+ countries. My journey spanned from Tennessee to Peru, teaching the Great Commission.
Cross-cultural leadership prep is crucial, yet often lacking. I aim to empower aspiring missionaries to thrive, not just survive. Church planting is key.

✅Equipping pastors to support missions, fostering local-global church connections.
✅Educating church members through historical missionary media, showing how everyone can help.
✅Leading believers on a mission-focused journey through resources and materials.
✅After aiding pastors and youth in missions, my role is to shed light on blind spots for global evangelism success.

"The only hope of the race is that, as in apostolic times, the whole Church shall become a body of evangelists, and every converted soul consider it a necessary part of discipleship to witness to all men that Christ died for all." Arthur T. Pierson
