Staff

edit

All About God consists of 3 paid employees and approximately 100 volunteers serving virtually. It was co-founded in 2002 in Mission Viejo, California by President & CEO, Greg Outlaw and COO/CFO, Randall Niles.

CEO Greg Outlaw

edit

The co-founder and CEO of All About God Ministries is Greg Outlaw. Outlaw grew up in Greenville, South Carolina and dedicated himself to Jesus at the age of 12 though he quickly got caught up in the world. He founded a successful internet company, but he then fell into a life of dissolution.

Outlaw was diagnosed as being terminally ill with pancreatitis[2] which may have resulted from chronic drug and alcohol abuse. He was bedridden and being fed intravenously and on a regime of powerful pain medications.

After rededicating his life to Jesus on December 7, 1999, Outlaw started to read the Bible and pray on a daily basis. His biography suggests that he was miraculously cured when he made a decision to walk away from his dotcom company in April 2001, although chronic cases of pancreatitis can be resolved with reduction of both alcohol and fat intakes.

Outlaw began attending services at Pastor Rick Warren's Saddleback Church and felt a calling to establish an internet-based ministry. Outlaw then co-founded All About God Ministries with attorney Randall Niles, who he met at Saddleback Church.[3][4][5]

Outlaw also runs a consulting business for Christian non-profits and Christian-controlled or owned businesses, focussed on increasing web traffic. Outlaw has written a book on search engine optimization called SEO by the Numbers.

COO/CFO Randall Niles

edit

Randall Niles is the co-founder of All About God Ministries. Randall Niles is listed as operations director and CFO of All About God Ministries.[6][7]

According to one of the "All About God" affiliated websites, Randall Niles spent nearly 20 years as a “practicing atheist” and a "passive participant on the gerbil wheel of life".[8] Niles states that he was "forged in the fires of Georgetown, Oxford, and Berkeley."[9] As a lawyer and businessman, Niles reportedly pursued materialism and success. Niles now feels that he wasn’t asking “spiritual questions” anymore. During his mother’s battle with breast cancer in 1999, Niles started a journey for truth and meaning in his life. He then began studying archaeology, religion, philosophy, science and technology.

He started going to Saddleback Church to satisfy his wife, but for months would sit outside on the grass, not wanting to be taught "mythology" and asked for money. After a sincere quest, Niles felt that the Bible was an accurate history book "inspired from outside our space-time dimension." He was "stunned by the evidence for the biblical Jesus." In May 2000, Niles became a committed born-again Christian.[9]

Niles speaks at churches, campuses, camps, and conferences. He regularly teaches courses at Colorado Christian University in business, law, and philosophy. Nile has written the books, The Great Pursuit: The Message for Those in Search of God and What Happened to Me? Reflections of a Journey.[8]
