Founder of Oneness Through Redemption
“I have known Christian quite well for almost 10 years. He is a deeply committed lover of Jesus Christ and a mature person, both spiritually and emotionally. In the last 7 years he has served in almost every area of our church… He is a man of prayer and I can count on him to spend time praying for the Lord’s guidance and for the needs of our congregation. His integrity and wisdom has been a wonderful gift to me personally and to our church. Christian is quite a preacher, frequently sharing at our Sunday Morning services in regular pulpit ministry. He heads up our evangelism program and has planned and led regular evangelistic projects to our broader communities that have been quite successful… He has traveled with me to India and Africa ministering in Crusades and he has made many other international trips by himself.” (2011)

“I have known Christian Osburn for 10 years. Chris and I both came to know the Lord around the same time and in the same way. Of all those I’ve known he has gone the deepest in the Lord. He has devoted his life fully to know and serve Jesus with all of his heart. Chris is a great Husband and Father of four wonderful children… He has shown himself to have a true servant’s heart in many ministry activities at the Church that he and I attend. He is and elder, teaches Bible studies, preaches, organizes the adult Sunday school, has organized and executed many evangelistic outreaches and sits on our compensation committee. He also is extremely anointed operating in the Gifts of the Holy Spirit and has a strong knowledge of God’s word… Chris has strong anointing for evangelism as well. He has gone on many missions to Africa, India, and El Salvador where he has preached at many outdoor crusades in the power of the Holy Spirit. I have personally seen Chris lead people to Christ and boldly proclaim the Gospel… In the many years I’ve known him he has shown to have a heart to know God. Chris is dedicated to the study of scripture, prayer and living a life yielded to the Holy Spirit. I personally see the fruit of the Spirit in him.” (2011)

“I have known Christian Osburn for over seven years, and consider him a dedicated man of God. I have been blessed to have him as a friend, fellow traveler and fellow servant in Christ. Last year he accompanied me in two mission trips to Asia & West Africa. I was impressed with his Patient, level-headed approach to any endeavor he had been involved with. Christian demonstrates a giving and generous nature and he is a good listener, good communicator of the word of God…I could continue with descriptions of Christian and his wife Tina’s many good qualities—instead I would simply like to say how much I think of Christian and how strongly I recommend him for ministry locally and globally.” (2011)
