Massey Campos

Co-Founder of Self-Evident Ministry

Massey Campos is a first-generation American, and a 3rd generation preacher. Both his parents were born and raised in Mexico and immigrated to America as young adults in order to pursue the American dream. Massey, along with his two brothers and one sister, grew up traveling as a family, as their father was an evangelist.


As his father preached, Massey, as early as age 5, picked up a guitar and bass guitar and started playing. While still in his teens, Massey began preaching to congregations the unsearchable riches found in Christ.


In 2001, Massey began speaking to audiences around the country in high schools, colleges, churches, and much more. Massey’s constant desire and passion is to see Americans, both young and old alike, understand the Biblical heritage of this great nation and bring America back to the God who gave us this liberty. 


Massey is the father of three awesome boys, and husband to his beautiful wife, Cari, who assists with Massey’s appearances, and is the Assistant Pastor at Revive Church.  He and his family currently reside in Port Saint Lucie, Florida.


Other areas Massey is involved in include:

  • Assistant Pastor, Revive Church, Stuart FL.

  • Ordained Minister, since 2007

  • Author

  • Internationally Endorsed Musician – Bass Guitar & Vocals

Cari Campos

Cari Campos

Co-Founder of Self-Evident Ministry

Cari has worked in the non-profit sector for close to 20 years, including events coordination, public relations, and donor relations.  For much of her adult life, she has played a “behind the scenes” role in these ministries, but recently was led to share her heart and message on the power of prayer, how prayer and seeking the aid of Heaven played a vital role at the foundation of America, and how God’s miraculous power is available to all of us through prayer. She is also a bi-weekly co-host on the Self-Evident podcast.


Cari grew up in Minnesota and comes from a multicultural family, as her brother, Jason, was adopted from Korea, and her sister, Chrissy, was adopted from India. Her heart is to see the divides among the American people brought to closure. She homeschools her and Massey's 3 boys and also volunteers at Revive Church in their children's ministry.

Larry Mayo

Larry Mayo

Certified Instructor & Regional Director

Larry D. Mayo - of Lewes, Delaware, is a musician, recording artist, public speaker, radio personality, and amateur historian.


After over a decade of studying our founding documents and the men who wrote them, Larry realized how little Americans had been taught about American history and has made it his passion to change that. Larry began as an IOTC student who became a Certified Instructor, then Delaware Chapter Leader, elected to the Board of Directors, appointed to Vice President, and currently is C.E.O. and President of the Institute on the Constitution. Having grown up at what is now the Delaware Seashore State Park and holding a deep love for Delaware, he embarked on the task of developing “A Comprehensive Study of The Delaware State Constitution” as a major part of his passion to restore the DE state government to its proper constitutional role. Larry has taught hundreds of students, from young teens at The Cross Christian Academy, to adults of all ages, as well as elected officials at churches and civic organizations throughout Delaware.


As Thomas Jefferson said “Anyone who desires to remain ignorant and free, desires what never was and never will be.”
