Resources by Topic: About EPM

We’d like to share with you just a few of the ways the book royalties have been used to make a difference in the world—and for eternity. 

I had written about God's ownership in my book Money, Possessions and Eternity, which came out in 1989, only months before I became involved in civil disobedience. Little did I know while writing that I would literally own nothing—including that book itself—within a year of when it came out.

Some of you who read my blog might not know much about EPM, so thought I’d share about the abortion clinic lawsuits that led to my resignation as a pastor and to the beginning of EPM.

Since we get asked this question from time to time, and because we’re celebrating our 20th anniversary this year, we thought it might be fun to give you a sneak peek into the daily happenings at Eternal Perspective Ministries. 

In this Q&A session, Randy Alcorn answered many questions about his book Heaven. In this clip, he talks about his ministry Eternal Perspective Ministries. 

Eternal Perspective Ministries has created several special funds you are welcome to support. 

In this video, Randy Alcorn welcomes visitors to our website. He talks about what is on our website, including books and thousands of resources on various subjects.

Dwight Myers is the shipping clerk for Eternal Perspective Ministries. He also monitors inventory and receives incoming book shipments from publishers and suppliers. October 1st will be Dwight’s 3rd anniversary of working for EPM. 

Then The ministry began in 1990 with the EPM office in the Alcorns’ basement. Randy and his wife Nanci were the only employees. In 1997, an office space was added to the Alcorns’ home, where EPM resided until 2006. Now EPM has grown to 10 part-time employees (not including Randy), and has a separate office in Sandy, Oregon, while Randy still works full-time from his home office.

Thoughts about what Randy Alcorn is like from his longtime assistant (now retired), Kathy Norquist... "I often tell people that Randy lives what he writes. It’s a privilege to work for a man with such integrity, someone you can fully trust."

Since the royalties received are way more than the operating budget of EPM, some people ask why we don’t use some of the royalties to fund EPM.
