Through careful study of the Bible, Dr. Charles F. Betters embraced the doctrines of the Reformed Faith early in his ministry. Chuck’s passion for building a spiritual legacy is reflected in his commitment to preaching through the Scriptures unapologetically. When the death of his sixteen-year-old son Mark confronted him with life’s hardest questions, he transparently tackled those hard doctrines and painful places of life. His messages, many found on this website, boldly encourage listeners that God is not afraid of their questions about the hard places in life. Out of the grief of his family, MARKINC Ministries was established as a means to offer help and hope to hurting people.

MARKINC desires to come alongside others, who are hurting, to offer help and hope. While the roots of this ministry were started in a painful, broken place, there has been tremendous beauty that has resulted in the help and hope that has been shared with millions of people around the world.

Beauty from Brokenness: Chuck and Sharon Betters’ lives were shattered when they learned that their 16-year-old son, Mark, and his friend Kelly had died in a tragic car accident. Overwhelmed with grief, they found solace in knowing God held them tightly. Support from others reminded them of God's sovereignty and trustworthiness.

In response to their loss, they founded MARKINC, which stands for "Making Abundant Riches Known In the Name of Christ," in honor of Mark. This non-profit aims to assist others who are grieving, just as they were supported during their darkest days. What began in pain has blossomed into a ministry that offers hope and healing to millions around the world.
