Pastor Frank is a Loving Husband to Teresa (12 years of blessed matrimony) and Father of Five blessings from the Lord. He has been our Pastor since March 2008.
Pastor Frank has served the Body of Christ at Lighthouse Baptist Church, Brentwood CA as a Youth Leader; Oakland Baptist Church, Warner Robins, GA as a Singles Sunday School Teacher; Immanuel Baptist Church, Antioch, CA as Youth Pastor; Pittsburg Baptist Church, Bay Point, CA as Sunday School Teacher/Pastor in Training; First Baptist Church, Federal Way, WA as Associate Pastor.
Now he serves us at IV Baptist Church as our Pastor preaching and teaching God's Word unashamedly. Our Pastor holds to the reformed Christian doctrine of the faith held by men such as John Calvin, John Owen, Jonathan Edwards, James P Boyce and Charles Spurgeon (There are many, many more).
Our Pastor spends his days serving the church and our community and most of his late nights studying God's Word and applying it to his life before preaching. When he is not studying he enjoys spending time with his family, reading (His favorite is the Puritans and Reformed Theologians), watching sports, and going to the beach.
Favorite Bible Passage
A wise man (Pastor Ed Lemons) once told me Genesis 1:1 - Revelation 22:21 and I concur. I love all of Scripture. But a place I continually come back to is 2 Timothy 3:16-17
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of Godmay be competent, equipped for every good work.
"The valley is beautiful, one of God's best kept secrets and I am excited about the opportunities of serving Christ in Cave Junction, OR"
"Please come out and join us in worship and fellowship on Sunday mornings at the County Building located on Redwood Highway. It will be a time of praise, worship, reflection, prayer, preaching, serving and learning."
We'll see you there!
