The Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God
Simon Peter answered,
“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
– Matthew 16:16 NASB
Additional scripture: Matthew 1:18, John 3:16-17, Colossians 1:12-20, John 1:1-14 and Hebrews 1:1-6
This is one of the few Scriptural places that makes a guarantee about having salvation, and about passing salvation on to others. When I forget why I am here (as a pastor) -- this is my reset. I am here for my own salvation, and for the salvation of anyone who will listen to the message. Dave Maddack

Dave Maddack has been the Equipping Pastor since April of 1997. His title and task are based upon Ephesians 4:11-13. As a shepherd-teacher he is to encourage the congregation to grow unto Christlikeness and to give them the spiritual tools and weapons they need in order to be effective servants of Christ Jesus.
He received a Bachelor of Biblical Literature from Ozark Christian College in Joplin, Missouri in 1995 and a Master of Arts from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Deerfield, Illinois in 2003.
He began preaching full-time in 1991 and was ordained in 1992. He and his wife Jill have four children.
As the Pastor, Dave seeks to be a faithful shepherd caring for the sheep; as the Preacher, Dave delivers the sermons to remind the hearers of God's Promises and God's Warning; as the Professor, Dave studies so that his classes contain challenging material for every level of understanding; and, as the "Plumber", Dave also has been known to engineer "make-do" repairs around the building until the true professionals can make it right.
The Bible
All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work.
- 2 Timothy 3:16-17 NASB
Additional scripture : Psalm 119:11 and 1 Peter 1:22-25
Pay close attention to yourself and to your teaching; persevere in these things,
The Holy Spirit
“I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.”
‐ John 14:16‐17 NASB
Additional scripture: Romans 8:9 and John 16:7‐11
Giving thanks for 100 Years in Crown Point
for as you do this you will ensure salvation both for yourself and for those who hear you.
