Aanii (Hello)
My name is Mike Peters
I have recently stepped aside from the pulpit after 41 years of Native ministry. Even though I do not actively preach every Sunday, I maintain this website to help indigenous people learn what it means to be a follower of Jesus and be empowered by the Holy Spirit to live a daily life of victory. I wish to encourage others to take up the mantle of leadership across Indian Land.
A Message From MIke

Miigwich!
I want to say “thank you” for the faithful ones who give sacrificially every month to financially support 4FM. Because of your faithfulness I can pay the bills to keep the ministry going. 4FM is not a huge operation. It’s about as small as you can. Due to COVID-19, 4FM went from live gatherings to Facebook Live. Our live stream went into nine different countries which showed the hunger indigenous people have for the truth of Creator’s Word.
Because of my stand for Biblical truth, I was increasingly being threatened of censor by Facebook. At times they even muted the sound! After 41 years of full-time Native ministry I was getting a little tired and decided to step away from the pulpit.
But people both Native and non-Native asked me to keep going, they were hungry for truthful teaching and growth. So I decided to enter into the age of podcasts and audio!
Here on my website I do my best to bring weekly 15-20 minute teachings from a Native worldview. I am still building my site to include other themes to help Indigenous people grow in their faith in following Jesus (who was also brown!).
I am excited over the opportunities 2023 is going to bring to 4FM!
As we enter 2023, I am asking for your financial help.
Your financial support will:
-
Help me defray internet costs.
-
Website and domain maintenance.
-
Upgrade FM’s online presence.
-
Help me keep reaching indigenous people in nine countries around the world with solid Biblical teaching.
There are over 6.7 million Native American Indians in the United States and 6 million of them are not followers of Jesus. Please partner with me and help me reach a forgotten and marginalized people with the truth of the Gospel!
Thank you for supporting 4FM.
Sincerely,
Michael Peters

What if it's not true?
For over 400 years the indigenous people of North America have been told that in order to become a Christian and go to heaven we must forsake our way of life and accept the European way. We were told that our sacred ways were not acceptable to God because they were pagan. God hated our language; our dress; our songs; our dances and our worldviews. But what if it's not true? For generations missionaries have told us that we had to leave our culture behind and assimilate into theirs. What if that is a lie? We have never been given the chance to invite Jesus into our culture to transform it like He has in every culture He has created. 4FM asks the question: What would our indigenous culture look like if we invited Jesus into it, rather than us leaving it?
Can we be both fully Native and fully Christian?
4FM believes it is possible to invite Jesus to redeem out Native culture!
