We are the Body of Christ called to be Jesus in our community, in our city and in our world
Made Through Fire Ministries began 10 years ago on the West Side of San Antonio, Texas, at the corner of 27th and Delgado streets. Through a powerful testimony of Pastor Jose Esparza, MTF Ministries was born to reach, restore and expand. Through the Gospel of Jesus Christ and our commitment to grow believ
ers in their Christian walk, MTF has become a house of restoration within the community. For 10 years, we have lived out our commitment to serve both the local community and neighbors by equipping each person with the resources they need and helping members grow in their relationship with Christ in order to serve others with their spiritual gifts and talents. We are blessed with the ministry of our Pastor and his wife Olivia Esparza, their daughter Melodie Esparza-Lopez and her husband Carlos Lopez. We look forward to welcoming you on Sunday at 10:30 a.m. for Bible study. ABOUT OUR PASTOR
Jose G. Esparza was born in central Mexico, raised on the east side of Los Angeles, California and moved to San Antonio in the 1980s. In 1984, while working in construction, he experienced a tragedy where the ministry was born. On a construction site in San Antonio, an explosion of five gallons of gasoline erupted, burning his entire body. In the process, he was declared dead. Through a simple prayer of a doctor and the great power of God, Jose Esparza was given life again. This is where Made Through Fire Ministries got its name. Today, Pastor Jose Esparza serves as the senior pastor with his wife Olivia Esparza. He is energetic, spontaneous and loves God profoundly. He also has a passion for evangelism and oftentimes ministers in small and big venues around the country. His daughter Melodie Esparza-Lopez and her husband Carlos Lopez are the praise and worship leaders.
