Don Gordon

In the ministry of SCORE International, Don Gordon helps equip believers with the tools to live a Christ-like life, and reaches those without God with the good news of Jesus Christ through baseball and other venues. His two passions are formally discipling men one-to-one in God’s word and conducting biblical marriage counseling (another form of disciple-making). Both areas have grown in Don’s ministry career. The marriage and disciple-making ministry has included workshops, seminars and conferences from coast to coast primarily in local churches. In addition, Don has the privilege of leading disciple-making, and marriage and family conferences for missionaries and church leaders. In regards to marriage, Don carefully explains God’s passion for marriage and teaches in the context of personal ministry experience with couples and singles. As a result, many have come to a greater love and understanding of Jesus Christ in the context of their marriage and relationships. Don has had the privilege of learning what it means to be broken and suffer for the name of Jesus Christ (Phil. 1:29). He has a great appreciation and understanding of the ministry of the local church.
