Leadership

After training for over 17 years in various martial arts, (Shotokan, Shou Shu Kung Fu, American Kenpo, and Shaolin Kempo.)  Pastor Spencer R. Fusselman developed Shinja Kenpo Karate as a way to bridge the gap between physical and spiritual disciplines. Through his military career, he learned that a holistic warrior is one who is spiritually, mentally, and physically prepared. As such, the modren Christian should be equally prepared for their spititual  battle.

Shihan  Spencer's  personal mission in life is to connect warrior concepts to faith in a tangible way. He is constantly developing ways to demonstrate spiritual disciplines through physical disciplines such as fitness and martial arts. He is finishing a Masters of Divinity at Sioux Falls Seminary with an emphasis on pastoral counseling and Post Traumatic Stress.
