The founder of the 73rd Trust, Mark Ritchie is devoted to sharing the Gospel in an innovative, contemporary way. He delivers his messages like a stand-up comedy routine, telling story after story -- some funny, and some poignant and is sure to connect powerfully with the crowds at Fuel 2010, as well as viewers watching at home.
"We're pleased to have such an amazing line-up of artists at Fuel 2010, along with Mark Ritchie who will be speaking," said GOD TV Co-founder and Director of Television, Wendy Alec. "Mark is a great communicator with a real sense of fun, but able to hit you right between the eyes with a powerful message of how God can change lives. Fuel 2010 is a good opportunity to share the Gospel with the unsaved, especially with young people, who would not ordinarily go to church."
