It has been a very busy couple of months for us at PREPARE Magazine. We are so thankful for the support and encouragement we’ve received, and have been humbled as we recently celebrated our one-year Anniversary of the digital publication. It’s been quite a journey. It hasn’t been easy, and we’ve made plenty of mistakes along the way, but our hearts are filled with joy and thanksgiving for each of our wonderful subscribers, expert contributors, and advertisers.
With our Celebration, we have released some excellent new services and resources. We continue to do our best to respond – as it fits our vision and mission – to the needs and requests from our preparedness community. We are blessed to have a small part in sharing good training, resources, and important strategies to help families in their preparation efforts.
Our desire is to share a message of hope and encouragement for the future. Certainly, there are difficulties ahead – but we can not allow the difficulties and challenges to drain us of hope. We believe we can work together to build a prosperous and happy future.
Here are some of the new resources that we have JUST LAUNCHED!:
New Premium Membership Subscription: In response to the growing requests and needs of more in-depth training in preparedness, we have created and launched a new Members Subscription. This new subscription-based service will allow us to go a bit deeper in training than what is typically found in a magazine format. We will be collaborating with some special experts to share regular monthly live-webinars to offer instruction and training on a wide-variety of preparedness topics. These monthly webinars will be offered as part of the benefits package for our Premium Members, and will be recorded so that our member have a growing library of expert resources and tools archived for their benefit.
There are other great resources that are included in the Premium Membership, including access to all previous released digital publications of PREPARE Magazine, how-to ebooks and special reports, videos, and much more.
For more information, go to: www.PrepareMember.com

Print Publication of PREPARE Magazine: It has taken a bit longer than we thought, but we are pleased to say that we have launched the print version of PREPARE Magazine. It is beautiful.
The full-color, bi-monthly, print edition is now available for subscription. There is a special bonus to early-subscribers, so if you have an interest in a print version of PREPARE – you may want to take action now.

The topics (and guest presenters) are different each month, and offer diverse training content on topics related to preparedness, self-reliance, and disaster survival.

Webinars will be recorded and archived for Premium Members
Webinar Attendees will be able to ask questions (either live, or prior to the event) of the expert presenters or host.
Downloadable written materials will be provided on the webinar topic, and made available to attendees
Premium Members will be able to attend the webinars and receive access to the recording free-of-charge. Others wishing to attend (who are not Premium Members) will need to pay a fee to attend these training events.

Meet one of PREPARE Magazine’s Valued Core Contributors: Jason Hunt
When we say that at PREPARE Magazine our contributors have a heart to help others prepare…we really do mean it! We hope you will get to know this particular core contributor in greater depth.

Jason Hunt founded Hunt Survival, Inc./ KY River Bushcraft as an outreach and training center for people called to prepare for the gospel ministry that have a desire to get back to basics. His vision was equipping small groups of men and women that would venture out to take the gospel to diverse areas outside of the institutional church setting; more specifically in an outdoor or wilderness environment just as the early church did in its humble beginnings.

With an office now located in Floyds Knobs and training sites throughout Southern Indiana, FCU continues its commission of equipping God’s Generals to reform the nations with the power of the Gospel of the Messiah Jesus. With students from all 50 states and over a dozen other nations Frontier has been met with a wide variety of acceptance and recognition. FCU is equipping believers to make a difference in their communities for God’s kingdom.
Jason has been training in the martial arts for almost thirty years and was inducted into the 2001 U.S. Martial Arts Hall of Fame. He has black belt ranks in Ju Jitsu, Hapkido, Arnis, Krav Maga and Kapap.
