There’s a new opportunity coming to the area for those interested in a community Bible Study.
Community Bible Study is a world-wide organization based in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Holt resident Andrea Travis, who is involved with Community Bible Study, would like to see the organization’s Bible Study groups get started in North Okaloosa County.

“Pass it On,” is the song that identified the Jesus Movement for the Baby Boomer generation.

The opening words, “It only takes a spark to get a fire going,” remain as true today as they did 50 years ago when first sang by a generation that has now reached senior citizen status.

Destiny Worship Center of Crestview is a church experiencing rapid growth.

Perhaps it’s coincidental, but it’s probably not, the growth has taken place since April with the arrival of Campus Pastor Drew Brassefield.

Pastor Jeff Burnett joined Crosspoint Ministries in Niceville eight years ago with the express purpose of launching what is now the Crestview Crosspoint North campus.

The church, located across the street from Davidson Middle School, started in 2016 with the goal of reaching the unchurched, the de-churched or those that had been hurt in their past church experiences.

At 33 years old, Tadd Anderson is still a young man in life and in ministry.

As the lead pastor of Mosaic Church on James Lee Blvd., he also has some big responsibilities. Anderson has embraced those responsibilities as he leads Mosaic Church, which operates as a Southern Baptist Church.

Pastor Donnie Cadenhead admits he was a bit naïve when he started his church, Victorious Life Christian Worship Center.

It was January of 1994 and the pastor and his wife, Karen, took $190 to open an account for the new church.

Mike White looks like a man you would want as your pastor. His white hair and strong hands are evidence of years spent with God in prayer.

And after talking to him for a few minutes his love for his Lord and people quickly comes through.

Live Oak Baptist Church isn’t the easiest church to find in Crestview, but it has a ministry that dates back 90 years.

Pastor Jerry Nelson will celebrate 12 years at the church on November 30 of this year. Nelson cut to the heart of things when asked why someone would consider joining Live Oak.
