“For by grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God; not as a result of works, that no one should boast”

(Eph. 2:8-9).

Pat Shaughnessy  February 28, 1962

About Us...

It is the goal of Standing Firm Ministries (SFM) to serve those in all walks of life. We minister to people in the business community, to prisoners in county jails and state and federal prisons, and to those in other countries through personal Bible conferences and through Bible correspondence courses.  Our goal includes presenting people with the claims of Christ and teaching the Bible clearly, accurately, with integrity, and in the simplest language possible.

Our mission is carried out through teaching Bible studies, monthly newsletters, the distribution of thousands of cassette tapes, ministry in local churches, teaching in Bible conferences in foreign countries, counseling and discipling, and in any other way which presents itself. We are committed to preaching Jesus Christ as man’s only hope...at every opportunity!

Pat Shaughnessy is the president and Bible teacher at SFM. His testimony, like those of all believers, is a story of the grace of God.  You can learn more about his life, by clicking on his mug shot from the Mesa, Arizona jail which was taken, of course, before he came to Christ.
