A Message from the Pastor
Temple Community Church exists by deliberate ecclesiastical commission; an extension of the biblical pattern – churches plant churches. It was not born out of reaction or division, but deep desire, through structured oversight, and intentional planning with a group of God’s people who desired an opportunity for a fresh start. Our aim is not novelty or trend, but faithfulness to the timeless truths of Scripture and the enduring mission of Christ’s Church.
Our foundation rests on the firm belief God has spoken clearly, comprehensively and sufficiently in His Word. We affirm salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone, according to Scripture alone, to the glory of God alone. These truths are not slogans—they are the framework for our preaching, our worship, and our discipleship. We are committed, by the grace of God, to cultivate a church culture where Scripture is not only respected but relied upon—for doctrine, for counsel, and for daily living. The Bible speaks with authority and sufficiency to every aspect of life and godliness.
We will labor to bring God’s Word to bear on real lives in real time—not through speculation or sentiment, but through careful exposition and practical application. Whether in the pulpit, the counseling room, or the fellowship hall, our aim is to hold forth the hope and help found in Scripture alone.
My role is not to innovate, but to faithfully guide, feed, and protect this flock with the tools God has already provided. My sincere and humble desire is to shepherd a church marked by theological depth, “truth-to-life” application, and pastoral care; a church anchored in truth, strengthened by grace, and built for His glory.
I extend a personal invitation for you to come and visit.
