Radical Truth, Inc.
Proclaim Truth. Share the Gospel. Expose Islam.
Programs and results
What we aim to solve
All of the Christians and Muslims throughout the world make up approximately 50% of the world population. The church often lacks the knowledge and training of how to witness to and share the Gospel with non-Christians (Muslims and other), so although our ministry is primarily focused on reaching Muslims with the Gospel and equipping other Christians to do the same, our OVERALL focus is sharing the Gospel with everyone.
Our programs
What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?
LIVE Evangelism Training
We provide LIVE evangelism training free of charge to churches, bible study groups, college clubs, and any other Christian groups. This four-hour training focuses on 'general' evangelism in order to equip Christians to share the Gospel with all people groups.
Online Evangelism & Training
Through our website and through videos and podcasts on various platforms, we share the Gospel and defend classical Christianity, and equip Christians to do the same. Videos and podcasts also include full-length visual presentations, random interviews, sermons, our 20-Hour "Understanding Islam" (Apologetics to Islam) Training Series, and more.
Television Shows & Podcasts
Our "Radical Truth" TV Show airs on NRBTV.org (DIRECTV Ch. 378) on Saturday nights and the episodes are currently available on five different video platforms. The podcast version of the episodes are available on over fifteen different podcast platforms.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
We believe the Muslim world represents the largest unreached people group who have not heard and understood the Gospel of Jesus Christ as presented in the Bible. The population of Muslims in the USA continues to increase. To that end, our long-term goal is to provide the necessary training to every church and Christian around the nation and mobilize them to evangelize Muslims in a winsome, attractive, and respectful manner. Our success is measured on a church by church basis, whereby after we complete our training, the members of that church actually apply, in a practical way, the knowledge they have learned. Our mission will not be complete until every church and Christian around the nation, who desires to reach Muslims, becomes equipped through our programs and begins actively engaging Muslims in matters of eternal importance.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
To accomplish our long-term goal, church leadership first needs to know we exist, and we fill a need most pastors are unequipped to fill. To that end, we seek opportunities where we can introduce our organization to pastors and senior church leaders, such as missions & pastor conferences, and outreach events. We also ask other pastors whose churches have benefited from our training programs to promote us by word of mouth and positive recommendation. We publish a monthly newsletter through MailChimp and measure its effectiveness in helping us gain recognition among church leaders, which is also published on social media. We maintain an active website and video and podcast channels, which provide resources of training materials Christians and pastors can use for personal study and localized training.
What are the organization's capabilities for doing this?
Our leaders and capabilities include:
- Tony began his formal studies on Islam in 2010, and it was around that time that he met Joe Carey, Founder of Radical Truth. They quickly became friends, especially after learning that their respective Islamic studies professors were good friends as well. Soon after that, Tony and Joe worked together regularly on many television shows. After Joe Carey died in 2018, Tony was one of the few men who Radical Truth's board of directors had in mind to carry on the torch of Radical Truth.
- Affiliation with a national organization of Muslim ministries, through the Center for Muslim Ministries of the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College.
- The personal recommendation and endorsement of several well-known and highly respected senior church leaders.
What have they accomplished so far and what's next?
In the past four years we have given a number of sermons in churches, provided LIVE training in churches and Sunday school groups, given LIVE presentations at multiple non-church events, and have created over fifty episodes of the "Radical Truth" TV Show & Podcast. Currently, our podcasts have been downloaded in 75 countries throughout the world.
