Ministry Philosophy: Dr. LaBorg is known for his bold and uncompromising preaching of God's Holy Word, the Bible. His passionate preaching comes from a deep theological conviction that the Bible is the infallible, inerrant, authoritative, and sufficient for any situation we face in life. From the heart of a New Testament Pastor with the cry of an Old Testament Prophet, Pastor Jeff stands to preach to the saints, plead with the unreached, and provoke this nation to repent and return to God.
Testimony: "My salvation was a dramatic deliverance from a life of addiction to drugs and alcohol abuse. These addictions brought tremendous sorrow to our home and ultimately brought about my dropping out of my high school and leaving home as a teenager. My Christian life has been a process of "redeeming the time" and watching God give back "the years that the locusts have eaten." I live in constant reminders that it is only God's grace that saved my life immediately and eternally. It is from this perspective and passion that I pastor His people and pursue the lost at any cost."
Education: Dr. LaBorg has spent his life "studying to show himself approved" before the Lord and has accomplished multiple degrees from Liberty University, Liberty Theological Seminary and Immanual Baptist Theological Seminary. He has done post-graduate studies at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and has been accepted to pursue a PhD in Advanced Prophetics/Eschatology.
