Michael Pierpoint, Minister of Evangelism/Fellowship

Michael is a graduate of Teen Challenge of Southern California, January 1997. He earned his BA in Christian Studies from California Baptist University in May 2000. He earned his Master of Divinity with Biblical Languages from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth, Texas in May 2003.
As the Minister of Evangelism, my role is to equip our people to share the love of Jesus when God gives the opportunity. As the Minister of Fellowship my role is to help people understand that Christianity is not an event; it is not a prayer we prayed and a bath we took when we were seven.
