Rob Taylor
I was raised in a loving home. The idea of success and “the meaning of life” were conveyed to me through images of how the world measured worth; obtaining a good job, getting the girl, starting a family, retiring, and then dying. These images didn’t contain any facets of God.
My first interaction with church and God was at a … Read More Email Rob Taylor (rob null@null ccbtn NULL.org)

Christa Mitchell
God has shown me the power of prayer all of my life, but it wasn’t until I rededicated my life, several years ago, for the last time, that I understood where He was calling me. It was through worship that He revealed all that He has for me. Salvation is a gift from God and I am only saved by … Read More Email Christa Mitchell (christa null@null ccbtn NULL.org)
Trent Schmidt
I grew up in a very moral and loving Catholic home that knew Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world, but didn’t fully comprehend Him as our personal Savior. As a junior in high school, I was never fully satisfied and was attempting to find fulfillment in drugs, relationships and success in sports. All this changed when I was … Read More Email Trent Schmidt (trent null@null ccbtn NULL.org)

Larry Mitchell
I grew up in the 60′s when many young people were questioning the faith and the values of the previous generations. After years of disillusionment, the Lord Jesus called me to Himself on Thanksgiving Day, 1979. I have had many ups and downs in my walk since that day, but the Lord has been faithful to hold me close to … Read More Email Larry Mitchell (larry null@null ccbtn NULL.org)
