MEET THE TEAM

Our team is made up of real people who love Jesus, love this city, and love seeing people find home in His church.

These are the voices, hearts, and hands that help carry Revival City forward, one conversation, one Sunday, one person at a time.

  • We Live In Shifting Times But Are Rooted In Eternal Truths. Here At Revival City, We Are Guided By Certain Foundational Beliefs And Shaping Values. Our Theological Foundations Include, But Aren’t Limited To The Following:

    The Bible: All Scripture Is Self-Attesting And Is Truth (2 Tim. 3:15-17), Requires Our Unreserved Submission In All Areas Of Life. The Infallible Word Of God, The Sixty-Six Books Of The Old And New Testaments, Is A Complete And Unified Witness To God's Redemptive Acts Culminating In The Incarnation Of The Living Word, The Lord Jesus Christ. The Bible, Uniquely And Fully Inspired By The Holy Spirit, Is The Supreme And Final Authority On All Matters On Which It Speaks.

    The Trinity:  There Is One God, Eternally Existent In Three Persons: Father, Son, And Holy Spirit. These Three Are Co-Equal And Co-Eternal. (I John 5:7; Genesis 1:26; Matthew 3:16-17, 28:19; Luke 1:35;  Isaiah 9:6; Hebrews 3:7-11)

    Jesus Christ: Jesus Christ Is God The Son, The Second Person Of The Trinity. We Believe That The Lord Jesus Christ Is Fully God And Fully Man And Is The Only One Who Can Reconcile Us To God. He Lived A Sinless Life, Died On The Cross In Our Place, Rose Again To Life, And Ascended To Heaven.On Earth, Jesus Was 100% God And 100% Man. He Is The Only Man Ever To Have Lived A Sinless Life. He Was Born Of A Virgin, Lived A Sinless Life, Performed Miracles, Died On The Cross For Mankind, And Thus Atoned For Our Sins Through The Shedding Of His Blood. He Rose From The Dead On The Third Day According To The Scriptures, Ascended To The Right Hand Of The Father, And Will Return Again In Power And Glory. He Is  (John 1:1,14, 20:28; 1 Timothy 3:16; Isaiah 9:6; Philippians 2:5-6; 1 Timothy 2:5)

    Salvation: We Believe That We Receive Salvation, The Forgiveness Of Our Sins And Reconciliation To God, By Grace Through Faith In Jesus; His Death, Burial, And Resurrection. Salvation Is A Gift From God, Not A Result Of Our Good Works Or Of Any Human Efforts. (Ephesians 2:8-9; Galatians 2:16, 3:8; Titus 3:5; Romans 10:9-10; Acts 16:31; Hebrews 9:22)

    The Church: The Church Is The Body Of Christ, The Habitation Of God Through The Spirit, With Divine Appointments For The Fulfillment Of Jesus' Great Commission. Every Person Who Is Born Of The Spirit Is An Integral Part Of The Church As A Member Of The Body Of Believers. There Is Spiritual Unity Of All Believers In Our Lord Jesus Christ. (Ephesians 1:22, 2:19-22; Hebrews 12:23; John 17:11, 20-23)

    The Holy Spirit: Came To Glorify Christ And To Apply The Saving Work Of Christ To Our Hearts. He Convicts Us Of Sin And Draws Us To The Savior. Indwelling Our Hearts, He Works In The Life Of The Believer To Help Them Mature Producing Fruits Of The Spirit (Gal 5:22). In Addition He Empowers The Believer With Gifts (1 Cor. 12) For Ministry Purposes. He Instructs And Guides Us Into All Truth, And Seals Us For The Day Of Redemption.

    Christ’s Return: Jesus Christ Will Come Again To The Earth—Personally, Visibly, And Bodily—To Judge The Living And The Dead, And To Consummate History And The Eternal Plan Of God. (Rev. 22:20).

  • If you spend more than five minutes around Pastor Dan, you’ll quickly discover two things: he loves Jesus deeply and he probably has a strong opinion about The Ohio State Buckeyes football team. (Go Buckeyes!) Somewhere in that mix, you may also find a box of Milk Duds, which he considers both a snack and, depending on the day, a minor spiritual gift. Learn More
