Pastor Earl Hood

Pastor Earl Hood
An Associate Pastor at Berean Chapel in Detroit Michigan, has served in the ministry for over 20 years. He is a Bible Institute graduate from both the Evangelical Training Association of Wheaton Illinois, and William Tyndale College.

Having founded both T.E.A.M. Ministries, and FaithWalkers Bible Training Ministry, in Southfield, Michigan, these ministries reflect his calling and passion of studying and teaching the Bible.

“I love to teach, and I strongly believe in equipping the saints with the word of God. Saints not only need to read the Bible, but they also need to know how to properly apply the Word to their everyday life. The body of Christ has gotten away from the basics, and entertainment has replaced education. My prayer and desire is to restore Bible Study back to its proper place of prominence in the Church.”

NAMe

NAMe
The members of NAMe (Not About Me) stand firmly on their conviction that it is not about them as a band, but that it is about Christ and all that He has done for them. They sing for the glory of His Name. NAMe is lead by Julie Phelps on vocals and guitar with Ruth Hickling and Michael Collins on vocals, Matt Bone on drums, Tonya Dibble on Keyboard, Arnoldo Reyes on lead guitar, and Dan Veres on bass.

We welcome this band from Ward Church as they lead us during our worship time.

Engaging and authentic, Kimberly von Oeyen, is a woman who will open her heart to you. As you hear her sing, you will feel each song as she invites you to cultivate intimacy with God by drawing near to Him and resting in His promises.

Married in 2004, Kimberly is Eric von Oeyen’s “gal in Kalamazoo.&rdquo Together they attend Richland Bible Church and enjoy vacationing in locations where they can hike trails by day and sleep in the comfort of a hotel by night.
