Meet Reverend Crystal Martin

Our Keynote Speaker

Crystal Martin serves as the National Director of the Assemblies of God Network of Women Ministers—a professional organization mobilizing women to fulfill their ministry call. She is passionate about advocating for, collaborating with, and training women ministers, and believes the image of God is best reflected and the Church of Jesus Christ is healthiest when both men and women are empowered to fulfill their call at every level of ministerial leadership.

In addition to serving with the Network of Women Ministers, Crystal has served with Chi Alpha Campus Ministries, U.S.A. for over 20 years. Presently, she serves as the director of Chi Alpha Missions, coordinating Chi Alpha’s cross-cultural initiatives including global missions, international student ministry, diversity initiatives, and compassion ministry partnership. Crystal is the co-creator of the World Missions Summit, a partnership between Chi Alpha and Assemblies of God World Missions designed to launch a missions movement in this generation. The phrase coined by Crystal, “Give a year and pray about a lifetime,” gives students a tangible starting place to fulfill their missionary call.

Crystal and her husband, E. Scott Martin, the Senior National Director of Chi Alpha, reside in Springfield, MO, and have two sons and a daughter-in-law.
