Paul commanded the young evangelist Timothy to "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching" (II Timothy 4:2). He also told the church at Ephesus that when one speaks the truth he must do so "in love" (Ephesians 4:15). It is our desire that the Preaching at Northwest always be directly from God's word and that the message presented from God's word always be presented with love. Those listed below are our ministers and they do the bulk of the preaching here at Northwest.
