by many gifted Pastors and leaders (John Ortberg, Lee Strobel, Nancy Beach, Rory Noland, Gene Appel, Mike Breaux, Dan
Webster, Deter Zander, Dr. Bilzikian, to name a few...) through the ministries of Willow Creek Community Church. I also experience
growth through the teachings of Pastor James McDonald at Harvest Bible Chapel, Pastor Ron Heitman of Evangel Church. Many
