Rev. Mario A Najera
I’m an Apostolic minister, husband to my incredible wife Bibi Najera, and father to two amazing boys, Andrew and Jared. I have the honor of serving as a minister at 1st Tucson House of Worship under the leadership of Pastor Enrique Espino.
The iHAT Podcast—which stands for I Have A Testimony—was born from a desire to reach people through a virtual medium, so that anyone, from anywhere, could hear uplifting testimonies and faith-based conversations to help build up their faith. My heart is to glorify Jesus, encourage the Body, and remind people that God is still working in lives today.
