Jesus Christ Saves Ministries

Jesus Christ Saves Ministries (JCSM) is a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization that began in San Diego, California in 1997. It was created by Jason Gastrich and was a simple ministry to hurting people in AOL chat rooms. Before too long, some web pages were created and hosted on AOL's server. JCSM began a subscription mailing list and kept in touch with those that sought Gastrich's help. He began writing and emailing them a devotional message (today, there are well over 400 of them online). Later, JCSM began recording and broadcasting a weekly audio devotional message too.

In subsequent years, JCSM left AOL and began hosting its own web pages under the jcsm.org domain name. The site grew and the web pages were configured and developed as technology increased. Today, JCSM offers over 160,000 web pages (e.g. Bible lessons, devotionals, literature, poetry, humor, etc.), hundreds of mp3 files (e.g. music, debates, sermons, the Bible on MP3, etc.), and over 500 pictures from Israel.
