As of May, 2010,
Rev. Steve
is the new pastor of Hosanna Free Lutheran Church in Cumberland, Wisconsin.
"I have been a Christian since I
was a boy of 9 years. I started preaching at 17 years old. I was
asked to pastor a church at 21. In 1990 I graduated from Asbury
Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. Since then I have pastored several churches. Also God has
blessed me with a wonderful wife, Cynthia, and my quiver is full of 7 delightful
children. they have been a great source of joy and blessing.
During my time of ministry I have
had many difficult and heartrending experiences in the organized local church.
After many years of much prayer, study of God's Word, and reflection, God has
caused me to come to many startling and amazing conclusions about the organized
churches of America. I believe the Lord wants me to share my insights and
grievances with other sincere Christians who truly desire Christ in a Biblical
way. I believe the organized church can be a hindrance to fully following
Christ. Do not be too quick to judge me as a radical fanatic. I did not come
to this evaluation in haste or presumptuously. It has taken many, many years of
thoughtful prayer to reach my conclusion, one I had never wanted to reach, but
one which the Holy Spirit has directed me to, which the Scripture has also
confirmed. Below is my discussion and evaluation. Read it thoughtfully and
prayerfully. Your relationship with God may depend on whether you understand it
or not."
