Randy Brown

I have been a member of Lakeview Baptist Church for 10 years, and a deacon for a total of 19 years. I’ve been going to church my entire life.  My parents took me as a child and provided me with a firm background in the faith.  When I was 8, I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior.  Since then, I’ve been serving in every church where I have been a member.  As I grow as a Christian, so grows…

Larry Smith

I have been a member of Lakeview Baptist Church for 14 years, and a deacon for 6 years. I grew up “churched” in a small country church.  At 11 years old, an evangelistic team from Howard-Payne University came and led a revival.  This group was so exciting and so full of God’s love, that I just had to have what they had.  During that revival, I invited Jesus to come into my life. God is always present and He cares…

I’ve been at Lakeview since 2015, and a deacon since about 2011, serving at different churches. I became a believer at 5 years of age at the testimony of my mom. I am seeing God work in my life on a daily basis. Through congestive heart failure & a pacemaker defibrillator, He has kept me alive and has given me peace & great doctors. My favorite verse is 2 Corinthians 5:21 “God made him who had no sin to be…

I was raised in a Christian home by my mother, who took us to church every time the doors were open. I was saved at the age of 9…
