Church On The Rock — Local services in Texarkana

Pastor John who is the congregational teacher for Church on the Rock, is absolutely among the best Bible teachers I have had opportunity to sit under. His messages are relevant to our times and lives. He remains faithful to the spiritual aspect of God's Word. Yet at the same time, teaching so the very base believer can keep abreast of what is being taught. The outreach ministries of Church on the Rock are nothing less than phenomenal.
