OUR PASTOR | Clover Bottom Baptis

Pastor Dale Ragland

My goals are:

To help others to grow in their relationship with Christ.
To lead and equip others for effective service in the Body of Christ for the glorification of God and the edification of His Church!
To lead the Church in the fulfillment of God’s Will in the mission for which we were called.
To effectively minister to those who are hurting, so they might find emotional and spiritual healing.

One of my life verses is John 8:31-32

31 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” John 8:31-32 (ESV)

The world does not accept the truth, the word of God. We live in a time where we face many struggles and even as believers, we can find ourselves chained to uncertainty and yet the word of God promises that if we hold to his word we will know the truth and the truth will set us free.

My greatest desire as a pastor is to live the truth, share the truth and help others to walk in the truth, that we may be set free.
