SENIOR PASTORAL CANDIDATE:
​PASTOR RICK FODDRILL

I am honored and humbled by your consideration of me for the position of Senior Pastor. I have greatly enjoyed my time serving you as Associate Pastor since 2013 and it would be a great privilege and joy to continue that service as your Senior Pastor!

However, I do not want to presume upon your support nor give you the impression that my years here as your Associate Pastor somehow earn me such a position. 

Therefore, I want to give you every opportunity to understand my beliefs, convictions, and focus in pastoral ministry, the church, and the faith. I hope this webpage will be a useful resource to that end and will result in our church making a unified, informed, and confident decision.

This page includes my testimony, doctrinal beliefs, philosophy of ministry, sermons on important church topics, and links to books that have helped to form my convictions for pastoral ministry and the church. 

​What I most want to communicate to you is contained in the current sermon series, "Upholding the Distinct Marks of the Church." You can find these messages directly below. You can also subscribe to our Youtube channel and follow the church on Facebook where messages and clips will be uploaded weekly as the series progresses through the summer.

DOCTRINAL BELIEFS

BOOKS

I thought it might be helpful to include books which have been very helpful in my understanding of church ministry and are good summaries of my views on the church. 


OTHER RESOURCES


I consider 9 Marks ministry and Capitol Hill Baptist Church good models to follow regarding church identity and ministry. I have especially benefited from their emphasis on recovering meaningful church membership.
