called to a higher standard...

I am very thankful for Pastors Craig and Courtney Sturtz.  They bring informative and practical teachings which have helped add to and shape my walk with Christ, making it more stable.  At times, these teachings have been very prophetic in dealing with specific issues in my life, and have brought a conviction to press on farther in my relationship and walk with Christ.  Between the two of them, I am always encouraged and called to a higher standard.

given tools and taught how to use them...

Pastors Craig and Courtney have been a huge part of my transformation process.  They have both imparted Truth into my heart and taught me many spiritual tools!  They have given me tools  and taught me how to use them.  Their words have edified me.  I thank God for them and plan to have them as part of my counsel for a very long time. They have both gone through the transformation process, and have a gift for discipleship.

seeking the comfort and glory of God...

I am blessed to be able to know Craig and Courtney.  They always shoot me straight.  They don't water anything down.  They encourage my brothers and me to seek the comfort and the glory of God.  They have blessed us with the Fan the Flame [event] where we get to pour back into the world by serving and sharing our testimonies.  The love Craig and Courtney have shown me has been a game changer in my walk...

not only in word...

Craig and Courtney have spoken to my heart and ministered in many different ways to me as I have walked with the Lord.  They have opened their hearts and loved me and the guys around me - not only in word, but in spending time coming out weekly to refresh our spirits with worship and a God-given Word.  My heart is thankful to have spiritual encouragement from their love for the Lord, and filled with joy to have them in my life as examples and as friends in the faith.
