Welcome!
A warm word of welcome to this website! I trust you will not only come to know me better, but will find the visit enriching and helpful for yourself.
The goal in my teaching ministry and as a pastor-scholar is that the congregation and students would study the Bible in both a devotional and scholarly manner.
In addition, I agree with Alexander Campbell, the founder of the movement of churches which I serve as a pastor, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), as he wrote,
"I have no idea of adding to the catalogue of new sects. I labor to see sectarianism abolished and all Christians of every name united upon the one foundation upon which the apostolic church was founded."

Dear Trinity family,
How are you today?
Sometimes life can throw us a curveball, and we encounter situations that we didn’t anticipate. We can feel stuck and unsure of what to do next.
In times like these, one of the best things to remember is this: God is good, all the time!
No matter what we’re facing, we can take comfort in the fact that the Lord is with us, and that He is working all things together for our good.
In Romans 8:28, we read: “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” This is a promise that we can believe, knowing that He is always working behind the scenes to bring about His good in our lives.
Today, I encourage you to hold to God’s goodness. Trust and know that He is working everything out for His good in your life.
And know that Trinity is here with you too! You are never alone when you are part of ...

4. This week in worship, the Season of the Holy Spirit
We have the season of Advent to lead us in the celebration of the birth of Christ and a Lenten season to prepare us for Easter. Even Easter has its own season with the weeks following to remind us of the post-resurrection appearances of Jesus to His disciples. Then comes Pentecost, and for one Sunday, we speak about the Holy Spirit and move onward. Well, this summer, we will have the season of Pentecost for most of the summer. We will continue to speak about the work of the Lord in connection with the fruit of the Holy Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23. As we heard on Pentecost Sunday, the Holy Spirit is with us today and we desire to grow into the image of Christ through the presence of the Spirit. Galatians 5:22-23 states...
"the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance: against such there is no law."
Each week for the next 9 Sundays we will look into how the Holy Spirit changes us to form God's character in us and be His witnesses to our friends, families, and co-workers. God the Holy Spirit shines the spotlight on Christ, but the Spirit is also the One who lives within us to overcome into this life. Be with us as we start this new series on the Spirit. Read 1 Corinthians 13 and Galatians 5:22-23 to prepare for worship.
5. New Women's Bible Study this summer, has started, led by Missi Anderson
