Johntown MBC is a community of ordinary individuals who bravely place their trust in Jesus, allowing Him to perform extraordinary feats.
They posed inquiries such as, "Imagine a church that prioritizes others." This mindset centered on serving others has not only influenced our identity but also continues to shape us. As we embarked on establishing a church that worships God and departs to serve, our mission has remained unwavering.
Today, Johntown stands as a single church in Northeast Texas seeking to impact our community with the love of Christ as we seek to love God and others. We want to make disciples for God's glory and the good of the world!
We believe that church isn't just about a building with a cross. It's about people's relationship with God and each other at the cross.
Johntown MBC is a community of diverse people from all walks of life, who have decided to give Jesus the ultimate power and trust. This means we believe He will help us do what we can’t -forgive, transform, give back and nurture. We invite you to explore any of our recorded services (or stop by to see in person) to see Johntown's values and approach for yourself.
Men and women everywhere are born to live together, not alone. As a closed-knit church, we believe we can all walk along our individual paths, together. With a strong shared sense of His love, each member of the Johntown MBC community can find a way to live a wholesome life of faith while sharing the struggles, happy moments with other members of the church.
At Johntown MBC we see it as an imperative to care for what God has created for us. It is our duty to be good stewards and sustain what we have been blessed with for the next generations. To make this happen, we take action because we believe the Gospel doesn't trust transform our lives, it can transform our communities as we await his appearing.
The men and women of Johntown MBC's team are passionate about Jesus, the church, and our community!
As an elder, I desire to provide Christ-centered preaching, teaching, and shepherding. As a disciple-maker, I desire to grow alongside fellow believers as we exhort and edify each other to fulfill our God-given giftedness. Finally, as a servant, I desire to serve anyway that I can to glorify God because whatever we do, we are to do it for Him. I have my Bachelor of Science in Religion from Liberty University and my Master of Divinity from Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, MO.
I am married to Melissa! We have two kids, Francesca (24) and Spencer (11). We enjoy movies, playing games, and laughing together. I enjoy being outdoors & "all things" eating, Melissa loves "all things" food while Spencer loves "all things" YouTube & video games. Francesa lives in Arkansas!
Kids are my passion. I am an elementary school teacher, but even more than that I love teaching Jesus to kids! My mission alongside my JMBC family, is to train up these precious children, and give them a firm foundation to cling to. Ultimately, there is no greater joy than witnessing someone accept Salvation and turn their lives over to our Lord and Savior!
