WELCOME
Welcome to the Gospel Martial Arts Union. Founded by two black belt pastors in 1986, we have since grown into an international association of dedicated Christian brothers and sisters training and teaching the martial arts with a Biblical perspective.

We are hard at work organizing the National Conference which will be held in the Dallas, Texas area in September, 2025. Stay tune for more details as this promises to be one of the largest events for Christian martial artists ever.
OUR MISSION IS TWO-FOLD
FIRST: We are dedicated to effectively and collaboratively promoting the teaching of Biblically principled martial arts/sciences, conflict resolution tactics, and life protection training.
Central Belief: Everyone can benefit from Biblical martial arts training, especially the household of faith.
Central Motivation: Everyone should train in Biblical martial arts with a qualified and credentialed instructor.
Central Focus: Practical demonstration of great love by willingly laying down our lives for those in need.
SECOND: We are committed to teaching personal responsibility and accountability. GMAU ministry initiatives are distinguished from other sporting activities by emphasizing life skills and growth through: Spiritual Discipleship; Mental Discipline; and Physical Development.
We journey together; unified and determined to building up the GMAU family, together pessing toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus (Philippians 3:14).
