Christian education, church health, and spiritual maturity
To live is Christ.
Philippians 1:21
I'm Doug VanNostrand—principal of Perth Bible Christian Academy, teacher, preacher, and counselor at Perth Bible Church under Pastor Jordan Davoll, husband, father of four, and PhD in Bible Exposition. I write here for everyone laboring to give a life to Christ—pastors, elders, deacons, teachers, parents, and the people in the pews beside them. The work is the same: love God, love His people, and watch His church grow up into Him.
