About La Espada 

La Espada was started in 1971 by Dr. Roland Garlick, to be for the Spanish-speaking world what John R. Rice was for the English-speaking world. Dr. Garlick, burdened for the Spanish and seeing a void in the Spanish world, took all that he had and began a ministry. “When I was a boy my dad sat me and my sister down at the kitchen table, it was there he told us ‘Danny, Joy, God has placed a burden on my heart to start a ministry, I want you to know that it probably means that I won’t be able to leave you much of an inheritance, if any, but I promise you I will leave you a good name.’ And so, he set out to begin La Espada.” – Daniel Garlick, President of La Espada

What is La Espada?

La Espada exists to fulfill the Great Commission. La Espada seeks to motivate, equip, and train pastors, and help them motivate, equip, and train their called men and women of God to fulfill the Great Commission. Everything La Espada does is to accomplish just that. You could put everything La Espada does under one of these three areas:

Motivating:

Every year La Espada holds over 125 conferences around the world.

Equipping:

La Espada Publications produces thousands of materials for local churches and individuals. From soul winning aids, to books on marriage and everything in-between.

Training:

Through the Harvest Project and Conference we are able to help pastors in areas they are struggling in.

La Espada Conferences:

La Espada holds conferences all around the world. Most are week-long meetings to edify and encourage God’s people. Some are smaller local church revivals. In every conference we give a clear presentation of the gospel and a call to service. Several preachers from all over have preached in the conferences. Over the years we have seen countless surrender to God’s will. Just in one week in September 2019 we saw over 100 people come forward to publicly say God’s calling them. Each conference we also give countless copies of “How to be Saved” to those who raise their hands to say, “I have a loved one who’s not saved, I promise I will take the ‘How to be Saved’ and personally tell them the Gospel.” We have given out hundreds of thousands of the “How to be Saved” to people just like that. 

La espada publications:

La Espada is also a full publishing house. With over 700 booklet titles on topics such as “The Deity of Christ, Why Our Children Don’t Seek God, What to Do to Not Fall Into Adultery, Why God Used D.L. Moody, 5 Reasons for Discouragement…” and coloring books about Biblical heroes like, Daniel, Job, Rebecca, Samual, Hannah, Samson, and many more.
