About Us
Our ministry began in 1967 when the late Pastor Sheldon Emry followed the direction of the Holy Spirit and moved from Minneapolis to Phoenix, Arizona, to start this work. He had spent 7 years learning from Pastor C. O. Stadsklev of Hopkins, Minnesota, and had also done much in depth study on his own.
Pastor Emry died in 1985 and the mantle of the ministry fell to Pastor Barley in 1987. In 1991 the church moved from Phoenix, Arizona to Sandpoint, Idaho at the Lord’s direction and have now been here over 30 wonderful years.
In 2023, Pastor Barley passed away and now the church and it's ministry is now under the care and guidance of Pastor Reid.
An excellent place to start with our ministry is our introductory booklet written by Pastor Emry, Heirs of the Promise This is also available in DVD format and is available here on YouTube. It is a wonderful tool teaching the message of our true identification as the Children of Israel and America being the Stone Kingdom talked about in the book of Daniel.
We also have Heirs of the Promise II: The Stone Kingdom which includes Pastor Barley, Archaeologist E. Raymond Capt, Bible Scholar Ernestine Young, Pastor Robert Phillips of Wales, Teacher David Hillard of England, Pastor Bob Williams of England, Lady of Avalon Catherine Cameron Sage, and Pastor George Southwick. It is a wonderful lecture, that further explains the biblical and archaeological evidence of the Anglo-Saxon, Germanic, and kindred peoples being the literal, physical descendants of the tribes of Israel. This is also available in DVD format and is available here on YouTube.
May God bless you as you study His Word and seek His Will for your life.

Greeting fellow Christians,
You will notice I did not refer to you as Judeo-Christians because Judaism is certainly not in any way shape or form Christian. Our Pilgrim, Puritan forefathers founded this nation to be a Christian nation, not a Judeo-Christian nation. So, again, with honor, I refer to you as fellow Christians.
You have come upon a truly unique website. This church, this ministry is not about multiculturalism, but is about a whole Bible, Kingdom of God orientation which proudly proclaims Jesus Christ as our Redeemer and that He came to redeem His Covenant people Israel (Hebrews 8:8-10), who are the Anglo-Saxon, Scandinavian, Germanic, and Kindred people. We welcome you to openly explore the many services we now provide, and do so with a Biblical open mind and heart. The Truth in Jesus Christ will set us free. The world only offers us deception, as Jesus told us “many are called, but few are chosen.” Matthew 22:14, and “strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.” Matthew 7:14
May the Lord bless you as you study His Word,
Pastor Dave Barley
Pastor Kevyn Reid
I grew up in the Kingdom message and have always known the truth about our identity. I am thankful for my parents, Kevlyn and Margaret, my Aunt Mary-Katherine, and my Grandma, for taking the time to teach me the ways of our King and for always encouraging me to continue to study and seek God's wisdom and will for my life. I am dedicated to this cause, and I hope to continue to preach the Gospel of the Kingdom to the Christians and lovers of truth that will hear His message of hope and understanding.
Pastor Kevyn Reid
Therefore, behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak comfortably unto her.
And I will give her vineyards from thence, and the valley of Achor for a door of hope: and she shall sing there, as in the days of her youth, and as in the day when she came up out of the land of Egypt.
And it shall be at that day, saith the Lord, that thou shalt call me Ishi (husband); and shalt call me no more Baali (master).
Hosea 2:14-16
Martha Barley
I am the daughter of Pastor Sheldon Emry. My father learned the truth of our Identity as the literal children of Israel when I was three years old. He began this ministry when I was nine years old and I was blessed to grow up under his tutelage. The greatest gift my father ever gave me was an understanding of the True Christian religion and how the Bible is being fulfilled in the Anglo-Saxon People. Since that time, I have been privileged to work side by side first with my dad and now with my husband, Pastor Dave Barley. God has blessed us with His Truth and the Glorious Mission field of America. The last question the disciples asked Christ is given in Acts 1:6, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?
Why is this very important question ignored by most of Christendom? Why do they ignore that Christ talked about the Kingdom more than any other subject? Would it surprise you to learn that America is the Stone Kingdom of Daniel and the regathering of the 13 tribes of Israel? Would it surprise you to learn that the Great Nations of America and England were foretold in the Bible? Would it surprise you to learn that you are descended from the 12 sons of Jacob? Take the time to study these truths out. May I suggest the following items to begin your study.
