An
interdenominational,
charismatic, Christian
community based in
Ann Arbor,
Michigan. The
Word of God sprouted the larger
international group of
Christian communities known as the
Sword of the Spirit. Many people consider the Word of God just another group of
Christians, while many others believe that the group is a
cult. The Word of God was
founded by Ralph Martin and Steve Clark. Ralph Martin has written dozens of Christian
books and has a
television show on
PBS. Steve Clark has also written dozens of books, the majority of which were
published by Servant Publications, also based in Ann Arbor. The bulk of the Word of God members are
Protestant or
Catholic.
