A word from the pastor
I am the third pastor in this church's history, following sixty years of pastoral leadership on this corner. I do not take that lightly. We are not a perfect church. We are a connecting church. Connecting with you is the first step in connecting you with God.
Third senior pastor in Revelation's history. Chairman of the Pastors and Elders Council, First Jurisdiction COGIC.

What we believe
Christ at the center. The Spirit at work. The Word as our authority. Everything else follows.
Christ crucified, risen, and coming back.
We are a Pentecostal church in the Church of God in Christ tradition. Jesus is the Son of God. He lived a sinless life, died on the cross for our sin, rose from the grave on the third day, and is coming back. Salvation is a gift, received through repentance and faith in Him. The Holy Spirit is the One we depend on for power, holiness, and life. Scripture is our authority. We come together to worship, to be taught, and to be sent. That is the work.
We are not a church about church. We are a church about Jesus.
Everything we do here points to Him. He is the only reason any of this matters.
Mission
Connecting with people to connect people with God.
Vision
To become a kingdom ministry center, focused on delivering the love of Jesus Christ through family resources, community engagement, and Christian connection across Bible study, media, conferences, and ministry services.
