Point
Man International Ministries was founded
by Bill Landreth in 1984. Bill was a Vietnam veteran who served with the Americal Division.
For years he had suffered from what is known as PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress
Disorder). Having many symptoms of PTSD, Bill couldn't
get all of his needs met by the Veterans Administration (VA). We believe VA provides a very necessary and important role on
the road to most veterans recovery, but the concentration does not target the
"spiritual" part of man.
Bill had come to know
Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. His new Commanding Officer.
After God began healing Bill a passion rose up within him to begin sharing with other walking wounded
regarding his newfound relationship. Many say there is no cure for PTSD other than medication.
Bill had found out there was not only a cure, but also a way to live a strong and joyful life.
Soon Bill knew that he had to pass the message on to his fellow veterans.
He founded Point Man
International Ministries. Sadly, Bill passed away due to a heart attack a couple of years later.
Other veteran brothers picked
up the Point Man Ministry banner and carried it on into a new era. We are
proud to say that Bill's legacy lives on to this day.
