Our Leadership
THE LEADERSHIP OF THE TRENTON CHURCH OF CHRIST
Scripture is filled with examples of God choosing leaders for His people.
The leadership of the Trenton Church of Christ is based on the pattern laid out by God in the Bible.
SPIRITUAL SHEPHERDS
We are led by four spiritual shepherds—men chosen by the congregation to lead based on their age, life experience, and the type of character God has indicated in the Scriptures. These men do not run the church but instead make decisions as a group based on the wisdom and knowledge of God’s word they have gained through lives of service to God. Our shepherds are:
John Frazier - Kent Heaton - Billy Mikell - Freddie Summers
