Preaching and TeachingPreaching that uplifts the Word is the purpose of the pulpit ministry at Pleasant Olive. Messages are primarily expository in nature where the passage is explained and taught in it's context. We are not opposed to topical preaching but are typically expository since we enjoy preaching through entire books of the Bible. It is our goal to always preach "Thus saith the Lord". We make no apologies for strong Biblical preaching.
Outside of the preaching, it is not uncommon for various teaching to come straight from the KJV Bible and even with the use of a sound curriculum. We are able to field all ages at our service times. |
Music MinistrySongs, lyrics, and rhythms that uplift the Lord are the purpose of the music ministry at Pleasant Olive. We enjoy songs that contain doctrinally sound lyrics, teach a Biblically sound message, and that do not contain a worldly sound. We sing congregationals from the hymnal and also welcome special music from individuals. We are not opposed to music outside of the "red back hymnal" but certainly recognize it's reliability and proven content.

Fellowship and FamilyMembers that uplift the name of Christ are the goal of our assembly at Pleasant Olive. Every person is important to us at POBC because every person is important to God. The Lord has gifted us all differently and we need each other. Through everyone participating under the leadership of Christ, we can more efficiently fulfill His purpose for us as individuals and as a church corporately. We believe that all can contribute for the glory of the Lord at Pleasant Olive from the Pastor, to other leadership, as well as lay members and visitors. There's no greater fight than that of fighting together for a lost soul or to help someone grow in the knowledge of grace after salvation.
