BitCoin for Churches
Patrick Melder pt 3
If you are an investor or someone thinking of investing, you probably have heard about Crpto-currency lately. Crypto is an unregulated, off the grid type of currency that has governments upset. Why? Mainly because they can’t regulate it!
There is a lot of misinformation out there and a lot of different choices if you decide this is something that you want to do.
To help us get a little better understanding of Crypto-Currency and, more specifically, the “big boy” in the room – BitCoin – we have our guest today who happens to be a BitCoin expert! Praise God!
Dr. Patrick Melder was a US Army doctor for 13 years at Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington, DC as well as a private practice Ear, Nose and Throat surgeon after serving in the military. He holds over 30 US and international patents and is passionate about the Great Commission of spreading the Gospel to the ends of the earth…
Patrick is also a serial entrepreneur. He first learned about Bitcoin in 2013 but made his first purchase in 2018 and has held ever since. He’s written extensively about Bitcoin’s truths and the impact it has on believers and non-believers.
Patrick also hosts a weekly podcast: “Mission:Bitcoin,” this is an interview podcast focusing on Bitcoin and Christianity, exploring Christian responsibility in adopting Bitcoin; How Bitcoin helps Christians align with God’s plan; and How Bitcoin can be used in Christian Missions.
He has also the author of  “The Christian Case for Bitcoin.”
You discuss, on your podcast and blog, that Christians and Christian ministries have a “moral obligation” to adopt BitCoin. What do you mean by that and why is this a “moral obligation?”
You teach and share about using BitCoin to further Christian Ministry. Why would a ministry do that and how would they go about getting started?
  • Individual Christians
  • Ministry / Churches
  • Missions Work

  • Are there any special reporting rules that apply to churches and ministries that accept BitCoin or other crypto-currencies as offerings?
    Can a ministry use BitCoin as an investment?
    Tell us about your podcast, “Mission-BitCoin.”
    You have a variety of guests with various backgrounds – but they are all discussing BitCoin. Is this a topic that is generating more and more interest?
    Let’s talk for a moment about your book, “The Christian Case for Bitcoin.” What can our listeners find in your book?
    You also recommend an app called… “Fold?”  What is this app about and is something our listeners should use?
    Patrick, this has truly been an informational interview on a very important topic that is really coming into its own right now – BitCoin.  As we get ready to close, how can someone order a copy of your book, “The Christian Case for Bitcoin.”?
    If someone would like to reach out to you, to ask a question or possibly to do an interview such as this, how can they do that? How can they get in touch with you?
    Folks, crypto-currency is no longer just a fad. It is real. It is something, as you heard Patrick Melder discuss, could be used by Christians, not if, but WHEN a financial collapse happens. We see the handwriting on the wall already. You need to protect yourself, your family and continue to support the work of ministries to reach as many people as possible with the Gospel. BitCoin is something that you definitely should pray about getting involved with. Amen!
