Mark Sewell, a longtime church member, passed away May 8, 2018, following a courageous battle with brain cancer. Before his passing, Mark sat down with senior minister Art Stansberry to share his faith story.

Before I accepted Christ as my personal Lord and Savior, I was lost in a dangerous way. Although I had perfected the art of mischief as a child, I knew there was something off. Outside the presence of my loving mother, I stayed in trouble at school and in the neighborhood. We were not strong church attenders, but I enjoyed going with neighbors from time to time—mainly for the opportunity to sneak out and go to the corner candy store. Eventually, my family, like many others, was stung by divorce and other major life changes.

At around eleven years of age, we moved from St. Louis, Missouri, to South Central Los Angeles, California, and it was much more than I bargained for. I saw and experienced more things that made my previous mischief in the Midwest seem saintly. As I maneuvered the streets of Los Angeles, I saw the need for God—mainly to protect me from others or from getting caught doing something stupid. I was not too interested in Him as Lord of my life, but I was certain He watched over me and kept me away from criminal activity.

The danger came when I saw how much “better” I was than those around me and on the news. I felt that though I was not perfect, I had a clear line to heaven because I had become a “pretty good guy” in comparison. This false thought had light shined on it when I joined my college choir (mainly because of the pretty girls) and met my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. After one rehearsal I wept, and responded to His call and welcomed Jesus in my life. I was baptized on March 31, 1985.

After coming to the Lord, He has continued to bless me so much and so often. He is marvelous! He took a kid that was kicked out of more elementary schools than necessary and college to being a faculty member at the University of Georgia. He took a knuckle-head kid and placed him in a 30-year child welfare career. The list goes on and on, including Him placing my family and me in our awesome church home here at MC3!

We searched for years trying to find a church to go “all in” as a family. My kids have grown up and been poured into here; my wife has grown in her faith while being in relationship with other believers; and the Lord has called me into leadership here with this awesome church family. I love this church and fully support it for one simple reason: THE TRUTH IS SPOKEN IN THIS PLACE. Just like with all churches, we have our share of ups and downs; however, the commitment to unity in love and standing strong on God’s word keeps us focused on His purpose for our lives.

Ellen Galloway grew up in a loving family and went to church every Sunday. As she grew older, however, she began to question her commitment to Christ and eventually put church on the back burner. All along, God had a plan for her life, including work in a prison ministry.
