The All Christian Archive (ACA) is independently owned and managed by A USA Preservation LLC. Registered legally as an for-profit, monetary fees or donations are not tax deductible according to federal and state laws.
At the same time, the ACA is an apostolic ministry of Pa*l Wheelhouse for the Body of Christ. Can this be? Certainly. They are two sides of the same coin, as he sees it. His mind has naturally inclined as a preservationist and at the same time God gave him a minister’s heart.
Collecting for the All Christian Archive began in the 1980’s before the thought of establishing a Christian Archive was ever in thought. The P. Wheelhouse was keeping everything Christian, curriculum, course notes, conference binders, Bible seminars, evangelism trainings, magazines, newspapers, records, etc. After earning his MSLIS degree and then starting his A USA Preservation business, the vision became clear to establish an independent Christian Archive. In seeking the domain in 2020, he added the “all” to “ChristianArchive to make it unique. AllChristianArchive.org site was initially launched in 2021.
The founder was also working to establish a Christian Information and Resource Center (CIRC). In the fall of 2021, he decided to dedicate some pages for the CIRC on the ACA site as an ongoing project of the ACA.
Having also been an Adjunct Instructor of Religion, he puts on both his pastor and professor hat in writing many of the short article posts on the CIRC’s Information and Resources pages in particular. He hopes these articles will be a real help and a blessing to many.
