FRESNO – On Sunday, Aug. 14, Fresno Bible Church took time to honor and show their appreciation for their pastor of 30 years; Chris Cutshall.
Cutshall, who is a native of West Lafayette and a graduate of Ridgewood High School, credits the church and its members as being the reason why he has been the pastor for so long.
“This church family has really been a blessing to my family and me as we have been growing together for such a long time. I really believe in the power of longevity and the unity and cohesiveness that it breeds because that would be all but nonexistent if we were to change pastor’s every few years,” said Cutshall.
Through the years, Cutshall and his family have had their fair share of both good and bad experiences; but, he said that through it all, the church has always been one of his greatest outlets for strength and encouragement moving forward.
Cutshall couldn’t say enough about the church and its mission as he exclaimed that its growth and ability to relay the word of God is what sets it apart from other churches.
“I really think that we as a church are all on the same page and that is God’s page. We preach God’s word each week straight from the Bible and so by striving to be biblical in our faith, it truly strengthens our love for God and; therefore, our love for each other,” said Cutshall.
Through it all, Cutshall said that his time with the church has been well worth it and nothing short of a blessing.
