OUR STORY - How LBC Began
Pastor Malcolm and Amy Young began talking and praying about starting a church in January of 2009. They did not have a name for the church, money, support, or committed people. They simply wanted to do something that would honor God and allow Him to get all the credit. They had a desire for a creative and artistic church that deeply, yet simply, taught the Bible in context. From the beginning, that has been their prayer and vision.
On January 27th 2009: The Young's started the non-profit incorporation process and opened the church bank account with $100 (which was money Amy had received as a Christmas present). They started sharing their vision for the church with others which included a loving environment with a comfortable setting and verse by verse passage teaching from God's Word, the Bible. By teaching the Word in passages and using it to structure the life of the church, we felt that we could reach the community and help draw others closer to God.
March 1st 2009: Life Bible Church (LBC) met in a neighborhood clubhouse to hold its first service. Approximately 25 people attended on that special day in the history of our church.
March 8th 2009: One week later LBC had signed a lease on a facility and started meeting in a warehouse ( with low rent and only a 1 year lease). Over the next several weeks the transformation of the warehouse began and God blessed LBC tremendously. Soon the church had somehow procured: an entire sound system, new chairs, a stage, fabric all over the warehouse, new kids items, a new projector, a lighting system, a large screen, and air conditioning for the warehouse space. The most important thing is this…God gets ALL the credit! See the transformation and growth (from our very first service) for yourselves in the photo gallery.
We would love to have you join us in this journey. No matter where you are in your life, you are invited to Life Bible Church. God Bless You!
