Our Elders, Deacons and Fellow Workers |

Eric Svendsen, Pastor and Bible Teacher. Eric graduate from Tennessee Temple University (B.A.), Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (M.A.), and Greenwich School of Theology, North-West University (Ph.D.). He is an adjunct professor of New Testament at Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary (Denver campus), and has authored several books on biblical and theological themes (see the Resources page). He also appears regularly on Christian talk radio shows, including the nationally syndicated "Bible Answer Man" broadcast with Hank Hanegraaff. Eric is married to Madeline, and together they are raising a son and have a daughter and a grandson. | |

Robert Cook, Elder. Robert leads our church to the throne of grace week after week, and heads up our youth group where he faithfully teaches our young people how to live and share their faith as a way of life. Robert is a living example to us of true humility and love for both Christ and His church; and there are few men who genuinely love and allow themselves to be molded by the word of God as much as Robert. Although he would be the first to say he has a long way to go, to the rest of us Robert truly exemplifies the spirit of Phil 1:21: “for me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Robert is married to Sandy, his wife of 22 years, and together they have three daughters and a grandson. | |

Rollie Sohnholz, Deacon. Rollie has been with us, it seems, since the beginning of time. Rollie's appointment as deacon was a natural one since both he and his wife Cookie have always stepped up--most of the time without even being asked!--to serve the church with joyful and willing hearts. Rollie and Cookie have proven themselves over the years to be mature, faithful, and exemplary servants of our Lord to His church, and we are honored (and relieved!) to know that our church's earthly needs are in very good hands. Rollie also serves as the head of our church's financial committee, and acts as our church's treasurer. | |
 |
Chris Scheer, Deacon. A sensitive heart, an unassuming demeanor, and a servant attitude make Chris a natural selection for deacon of our church. Chris and his wife Debbie have been with us for several years, and they are a model of hospitality to our church in their eager hosting of one of our mid-week oikos groups, and in their administrative duties for the church. Together they serve the church with great joy in the Lord and with a fervent love for all the saints. As with our other servant couple, Rollie and Cookie, we are honored and blessed to have them as precious members of out body. | |

and
one heart--meeting
together to minister to one
another, encourage one another, pray for one
another, edify one another, and build each other up in our most holy
faith. It is the body and
bride of Christ who, committing herself
first 
to the Lord and then to each other
as a family,
spur
one another on to love and good
works, and together partake of the Lord's Table and the apostles' teaching.
