About us

If you aren’t living on the Edge you are taking up too much room! If you are tired of the humdrum traditional church where the traditions of men make the Word of God of non-effect then we invite you to join us.  We endeavor to make the Word of God relevant to your life so you can be on the cutting Edge of what God is doing throughout the earth.  We minister the Word of God line upon line, precept upon precept, here a little there a little.

Beginning in 1991, Lonnie and Barbara helped pioneer a church in Northwest Indiana, starting with approximately thirty-five people. After six-years, eleven hundred were in attendance. In 1996 he obeyed the call of the Lord, resigned his position with the church and founded Lonnie Jarvis Ministries, which is dedicated to taking the gospel to the nations of the world. Evangelist Jarvis has an earned Doctor of Theology degree in religious education.

During 2003 the Lord laid it upon Dr. Jarvis to establish a church. One where he and Barbara could duplicate themselves raising up a body of believers that would be willing to take the gospel not only to the world, but to their own neighborhoods and families. In January of 2004, they answered the call and founded THE EDGE CHURCH of Northwest Indiana.

Today, Evangelist Jarvis is also called Pastor, and along with his wife Barbara, they pastor THE EDGE CHURCH located in Merrillville, Indiana.
