Through nearly three decades of ministry, he has served in a variety of pastoral and leadership roles with a strong focus on discipleship, church revitalization, and encouraging healthy local churches. Andy’s desire is to glorify God with his life through faithfully following Jesus, loving and leading his family well, and giving all he has to equip and encourage the local church. 2 Timothy 2:2

What We Believe
Our beliefs are grounded in Scripture and the historic Baptist Faith & Message.
Scripture
The Holy Bible is God's inspired, inerrant Word — the supreme authority for faith and practice.
The Trinity
We believe in one God eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Salvation
Salvation is offered freely to all who repent and accept Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. Those God accepts will never fall away from grace.
Baptism
Believer's baptism by immersion is an act of obedience symbolizing our faith in Christ's death, burial, and resurrection.
The Church
A New Testament church is a community of baptized believers committed to worship, discipleship, and the Great Commission.
Christ's Return
Jesus Christ will return personally and bodily to judge all people. The righteous receive eternal life; the unrighteous face eternal separation from God.
Our full doctrinal statement aligns with The Baptist Faith & Message 2000.
