Christ Powered Ministries (CPM)

​

​​Christ Powered Ministries exists to bring the Word and the Love of Christ to students. In doing so, we know that Jesus Christ will be exalted and young people will come into a vital, passionate relationship with the Savior. In turn, they will be equipped and encouraged to impact their generation for the Kingdom of God.

 

CPM was established as a 501c3 student mission organization in 2007. Founder and President of CPM, Rev. Darryl Riden, is an ordained Southern Baptist student ministry veteran with 28 years of experience reaching students with the Gospel of Jesus Christ through teaching, evangelism,  domestic and international missions, student counseling, and leadership training in theology and apologetics.

Darryl and the CPM Team have led hundreds of young people to Christ and have a deep desire to raise up a new generation of Bible-believing, soul-winning student leaders regionally and nationally.
