Lead Pastor Dr. Dan Acker
"I believe that every Christian ought to be joined to some visible church; that is his plain duty, according to the Scriptures. God’s people are not dogs, else they might go about one by one; but they are sheep, and therefore they should be in flocks." -Charles Spurgeon“The Church needs more people willing to wash feet, not just point out they're dirty or complain that they smell.” -Mark Hart Revelation 3:14-22 "Complacency is the deadly enemy of spiritual progress. The contented soul is the stagnant soul." -A.W. Tozer
"We need to repent of the haughty way in which we sometimes stand in judgment upon Scripture and must learn to sit humbly under its judgments instead. If we come to Scripture with our minds made up, expecting to hear from it only an echo of our own thoughts and never the thunderclap of God's, then indeed he will not speak to us and we shall only be confirmed in our own prejudices. We must allow the Word of God to confront us, to disturb our security, to undermine our complacency and to overthrow our patterns of thought and behavior." -John Stott (NET)
