dojo travels
Because martial arts was a tool in Sensei Boyd's youth that helped him learn to control a out-of-control temper, and because it was ultimately used of the Lord in his life to point him to faith in Jesus Christ, it is only right that the dojo entrusted to his care be and remain: a platform for taking the Gospel into other countries, a vehicle to effect fellowship and discipleship for Christian young people, a tool for pointing the lost to faith in Jesus Christ.
Over the years, many opportunities have arisen around the world to conduct martial arts demonstrations and to use these as a platform for distributing the Bible and communicating the biblical Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
