Mike Ghiglia is Founder and Director of STS Ministries and author of all STS Bible studies. When not fishing for men he may be found fly fishing for wild trout in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.
"It's been said: 'There is no premium on biblical illiteracy.' I am absolutely convinced there would be far more Protestants who were formerly LDS and far fewer Protestants who are now LDS if we could stamp out this epidemic among professing Christians." |
Erika Ghiglia is Graphic Designer for STS Ministries. She hails from Hermosillo, Sonora in Mexico and is Mike's full-time partner in life and ministry.
"As a graphic designer I know the value of an appealing image. It saddens me to see the LDS church use the image of Christ, which is so appealing, and change the doctrine of Christ so that it is no longer biblical." |
Carla Parker is Administrative Assistant and Web Master for STS Ministries. She has also been called by the LORD as the primary intercessor through prayer for Mike and STS. Carla has been a life-long student of the Word of God and delights in serving "the King of kings."
"It is my firm belief that most of our battles as Christians are won in the prayer closet. I am called to pray that STS will be used to bring the Truth to the LDS church -- that they will be rescued from deception and brought into the marvelous Light of Jesus Christ, one soul at a time, and also from the top down!" |
Paul Whittington is a Teacher/Presenter and computer guru for STS Ministries. He is also Chief Architect for Nitro Security which specializes in intrusion prevention systems (IPS). When it comes to a zany sense of humor, Paul is in a class all his own. Paul is a perennial Leader for Community Bible Study.
"Praise God for His precious gift of grace! A gift that everyone needs to appreciate and accept! A gift that most LDS folks don't realize is available!" |
Patricia Whittington is a Teacher/Presenter, and Translator and Editor for STS Ministries. She is also a technical writer for the Idaho National Laboratory and for Nitro Security. Patricia was raised in Peru and is fluent in Spanish. Her mother was a missionary for the Methodist church and so "the apple didn't fall too far from the tree."
"My desire to share my faith with Latter-day Saints literally 'took off' once I became aware of the incredible evidence for the Bible. To have a faith that is founded on fact is a great comfort to me and a powerful witness to others." |
| Joel Peterson is a Teacher/Presenter for STS Ministries. He is also a highly sought-after personal fitness trainer for the Apple Athletic Club. Joel was a faithful Mormon for 33 years and held many positions of authority in the LDS Church, the highest of which was Elders Quorum President. Joel became a "born again" Christian in 1984 and has one of the most powerful testimonies you will ever hear. He feels a particular calling by God to help Evangelicals effectively share the true Gospel of Christ with Latter-day Saints.
"I am convinced that you, the reader and witness, will one day be in Heaven where someone you've never seen will approach you, throw their arms around you and say, ?Thank you so much! You witnessed to my grandmother when she was a young Mormon woman. Because of you our entire family was saved.'" |
James and Charity Hallmark are "Strategies" class Group Leaders for STS Ministries. James also leads the LDS Action Group at Christ Community Church and is an engineer for the Idaho National Laboratory. Charity is a Registered Dietitian and the mother of two children. James and Charity have been used of the LORD in an incredible way to open their home to and dialog with LDS missionaries.
"We have had the privilege of inviting numerous LDS missionaries into our home. Moreover, some of our best friends are Latter-day Saints. Because of Mike's experience with, and our concern for, LDS those difficult discussions are now much more fruitful."

Dr. Ken Parker is a Teacher/Guest Speaker for STS Ministries. He and his wife Debbie pastor Covenant Bible Church in Rexburg, Idaho (home of BYU-Idaho). Ken's passion for reaching out to Latter-day Saints is unrivaled, and he takes great pleasure in sharing his "tools of the trade" with our M2M missionaries.
"One cannot have salvation without the objective truth of the Bible. Today, many are exchanging the truth of God for relativism. Instead of practicing good study habits, people are guessing at the interpretation of Scripture. The context of the passage does matter!"
