While our small staff  sometimes share in the speaking/teaching workload, this is supervised, and most of it done, by our Director, Adrian van Leen.  Adrian is a qualified and accredited minister with Churches of Christ in Western Australia.  He has had 17 years in pastoral ministry in one country church and two metropolitan churches.  While pastoring metropolitan churches he also trained to be a school teacher and then taught school classes for several years.  He has earned qualifications including a Diploma in Ministry, Diploma in Religious Education, Diploma in Teaching, Diploma in Theology, a Graduate Diploma in Educational Technology, Post Graduate Diploma of Arts (Religious Studies).

He assisted in designing and setting up a unit in Contemporary Religious Movements for the Religious Studies department of what is now Edith Cowan University.  He has designed and conducted a variety of accredited semester units on CRM's and World Religions at Perth Bible College, WA Bible College, Kenmore Christian College (Queensland) and the Churches of Christ Theological College in New South Wales  [these two colleges are now combined as the Australian College of Ministries], Bethany School of Missions (Singapore), and shorter courses or units at Biblical Graduate School of Theology (Singapore) and Haggai Institute (Singapore).  He has been a regular and sometime visiting lecturer/speaker at Edith Cowan University, the above named Colleges, Luther Seminary (South Australia) and the Lutheran Seminary in Hong Kong.

He has spoken to student and staff Christian fellowships, and other groups on university, college, and high school campuses around Australia and in Singapore.  He is a regular guest speaker with Overseas Christian Fellowship student groups.  He has conducted seminars and spoken to a wide range of groups - church groups, para-church groups, camps, conferences, youth groups, men's and women's groups, Rotary groups, Armed Services wives' support groups, and other community groups.

Our preventative education work also involves us in the media and we are regularly consulted by print, radio and TV media around Australia and overseas.  We have been quoted in state and regional newspapers across Australia - from the Adelaide Advertiser the Brisbane Courier and the Canberra Times, through to the West Australian, as well as the New Paper and Straits Times from Singapore; and the Oregonian in the USA.  Articles have appeared about our Ministry in the New Idea, Cosmopolitan, Australian Women's Weekly (twice), as well as in Christian publications such as New Life, New Day, On Being, Impact, and numerous denominational and para-church publications in Australia and overseas.  We have had series of articles in several Anglican and Roman Catholic publications, as well as reports in a number of  Protestant denominational papers.  Our Director has had regular columns  in several Christian publications.

Our Director, Adrian van Leen, has not only written hundreds of articles published in numerous magazines and papers, but he has also written several books of varying lengths: Modern Cults and Sects (1981), O Is For Orange (Rajneeshees) (1983), Knock! Knock! Who's There? (1985) (co-authored with B Haig, Anglican Clergy-man - on Mormons and Jehovah's Witnesses), Christianity and Freemasonry - Is There a Conflict? (1987),  The Problem of Extreme Christian Fringe Groups (1989) (Thai translated edition 1990) and   The Mormon Message Examined (1999).  Several other books are 'on the drawing board' - but a heavy workload and shortage of staff, currently makes it difficult to find the time to write additional books
