About Me
Under ConstructionOur Mission & Vision
My vision and mission are to help Pastors to connect their people to faith in Jesus Christ.
My mission and purpose is to provide doctrinally and biblically sound expository sermons to the body of Christ.
Sermons that can be used by pastors and teachers to connect their congregation and students of God’s word to a solid faith in the Lordship of Jesus Christ.
It is my prayer and vision that the sermons provided will reach across the world to other countries to help those in the ministry of the Gospel od Christ.
About Me
I have been in the ministry for almost forty years. During those years I have pastored five churches. I am currently pastoring the Union Chapel Church of God. The Union Chapel Church is a small church with a big heart for God and People. I have been the pastor of this church for the past nine years.
I am an Ordained Bishop in the Church of God with headquarters in Cleveland Tennessee.
I have been married for forty-two years and have five children. Four with my wife and one we adopted. All of my family are involved in their local church teaching, preaching, singing, and or leading worship. I have nine Grandchildren that bring a great deal of joy to my life.
We strive to serve God with all of our hearts and to be true to His word.

Declaration of Faith
In the verbal inspiration of the Bible
In one God eternally existing in three persons; namely, the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
That Jesus Christ is the only begotten Son of the Father, conceived of the Holy Ghost, and born of the Virgin Mary. That Jesus was crucified, buried, and raised from the dead. That He ascended to heaven and is today at the right hand of the Father as the Intercessor.
That all have sinned and come short of the glory of God and that repentance is commanded of God for all and necessary for forgiveness of sins.
That justification, regeneration, and the new birth are wrought by faith in the blood of Jesus Christ.
In sanctification subsequent to the new birth, through faith in the blood of Christ; through the Word, and by the Holy Ghost.
Holiness to be God’s standard of living for His people.
In the baptism with the Holy Ghost subsequent to a clean heart.
In speaking with other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance and that it is the initial evidence of the baptism in the Holy Ghost.
In water baptism by immersion, and all who repent should be baptized in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
Divine healing is provided for all in the atonement.
In the Lord’s Supper and washing of the saints’ feet.
In the premillennial second coming of Jesus. First, to resurrect the righteous dead and to catch away the living saints to Him in the air. Second, to reign on the earth a thousand years.
In the bodily resurrection; eternal life for the righteous, and eternal punishment for the wicked.
