Thomas Simpson

Thomas Simpson was raised primarily in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. He accepted Christ as an eight-year-old missionary kid in Ghana, West Africa. At age 14, Thomas resisted God’s call to full-time service during camp but surrendered to be an evangelist at a youth rally. He graduated from Ambassador Baptist College in 2020 with a degree in Evangelism and in 2022 with a Master’s in Theology. Thomas has been privileged to travel with Neighborhood Bible Time, War of Special Forces, and other evangelistic teams. He has interned at churches in Florida and North Carolina, where he assisted the pastor, directed a youth group, restarted a church choir, and lead outreach ministries. On August 22nd, 2026, God united Thomas and Andrea as husband and wife. He is passionate about seeing lost souls saved, believers encouraged, and lives changed by God's Word.

Andrea Simpson

Andrea was born in Ecuador and grew up in a missionary church, making a profession of faith as a child. God opened the door for her to attend Hyles Anderson College where she graduated in 2019 with a degree in Elementary Education. Andrea received assurance of her salvation as a freshman in Bible college and later surrendered to serve the Lord in whatever capacity He saw fit. God led her to teach for a few years at Christian schools in Tijuana and Monterrey, Mexico. In 2025, Andrea and Thomas were engaged. After a year-long immigration process, God united them in marriage. She is excited to serve the Lord in evangelism.

Beliefs

Bible

Bible

I believe in the plenary verbal inspiration of the 66 books of the Bible through the Masoretic Text of the Old Testament and the Received Text of the New Testament. I believe God preserved His Word for English-speaking people through the King James Version. Lovingly, it is the only English Bible I use.

(2 Tim. 3:16, 2 Pet. 1:19-21)

Music

Music

I believe Scripture gives many principles regarding the ministry and morality of music. Songs in local churches should teach Bible truths, encourage believers, and glorify the Lord. There ought to be a spirit of excellence, a heart of praise, and a lack of worldly/sensual influence.

(Ps. 33:3, Col. 3:16)

Man

Man

I believe that man is by nature and by choice alienated from a holy God. He is incapable of saving himself from eternal separation from God in a place called Hell. The only solution is through repenting of his sin and placing his faith in Jesus as his personal Savior, trusting the finished work of Christ on the cross. "Whosoever will" may come.

(Rom. 3:10, 6:23, 10:13)

God the Son

Cross

I believe Jesus Christ is both 100% God and 100% man, without any sin. I believe He is the Creator, the virgin-born Son of God, and the only Savior for mankind. He died on the cross, was buried, and rose again for the sin of all mankind. His message of hope is what this dying world so desperately needs.

(2 Cor. 5:21, 1 Tim. 3:16)

God the Spirit

Dove

I believe in one God who manifests Himself in three co-equal and co-eternal persons. I believe that God the Holy Spirit is not a force but an individual who can be grieved, comforts, and accomplishes many other personal actions.

(Eph. 4:30, John 14:16)

God the Father

Worship

I believe that God the Father is a merciful and just Judge. He orchestrated a plan from before the foundation of the world to redeem mankind unto Himself. He deserves all the glory from our lives.

(Ps. 130:7, Rev. 4:11)

Church

Church

I believe that God instituted the New Testament local church to be the pillar and ground of the truth in this age. The two ordinances are baptism by immersion (after salvation) and the observance of the Lord's Supper. God commissioned the church with making and maturing disciples.

(Matt. 28:18-20, 1 Tim. 3:15)
