Sherri Martinelli’s Faith & Testimony

Life has been an exciting adventure as I have stepped out of my comfort zone and joined God in what He is doing around me. It has been a privilege and joy in serving Him, and I look expectantly for what He wants to show me and how He wants to use me each day. My speaking, dramas, and parent coaching are a reflection of how God can use anyone, even an over sixty-something, stay-at-home, non-Biblical scholar, mom for His purposes. I have learned that all I have to do is say:  “Yes Lord!!! Your servant is listening!”  ​

Sherri Martinelli’s – Statement of Faith:
I believe the Bible is inspired by the Holy Spirit and therefore is the only infallible, authoritative Word of God in all matters of faith and conduct.
I believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
I believe in God the Father, who is infinite & personal: perfect in holiness, wisdom, power and love. I believe that He concerns Himself mercifully in the daily affairs of each person, that He hears and answers prayer, and that He saves from sin and death all who come to Him through Jesus Christ.
I believe in God the Son, Jesus Christ the Savior, the only begotten Son of God, in His deity, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His substitutionary and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father, in His continuous intercession for His people and in His personal return in power and glory.
I believe in God the Holy Spirit, the Helper and Comforter, in His daily guidance and revelation of truth, in His conviction of sin, righteousness and judgment, and in His indwelling presence at the moment of salvation, enabling believers to live godly lives.
I believe everyone is born with a sinful nature, separated from God and in need of salvation.  Regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential for salvation through the repentance from sin and the acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
I believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; the saved unto the resurrection of eternal life and the lost unto the resurrection of eternal damnation.
I believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.

After attending church all my life as a child, I finally understood the difference of “being religious” and “having a personal relationship” with Jesus Christ when a Campus Crusade for Christ missionary led me to Christ on January 16, 1979 in San Diego, California.  After eight years of Bible study and coming to understand more clearly what it was to truly let Jesus be the Lord, King and Master of my life, in March of 1987, I promised the Lord I would go anywhere and do anything for Him, but to please make it so obvious I could not miss His calling. That is when my life changed the most dramatically! 
 I have learned that all I have to do is say:  “Yes Lord!!! Your servant is listening!”    
TESTIMONIAL:
"Sherri, How can I count the ways of feeling blessed by your drama today of "Mary's Heart" and your willingness to share your Christian testimony.  I really appreciated your continued direction to Scripture and so appreciated the outline "Yes, Lord" that you handed out to all the women to take home.  You honored God through obedience and joy.  Your enthusiasm was so apparent as you spoke, and your joy of the Lord radiated!  I can only imagine your emotional and physical exhaustion as you were poured out for His Kingdom and glory.  Thank you so much Sherri for saying, Yes, Lord!"
