About Living Word Teaching Center
Hello and welcome! We are Pastor Curtis and Debbie Butler, ordained ministers with a deep passion for guiding others in their faith journey. For the past 29 years, we have had the privilege of pastoring and serving various communities, most recently here in Rhome, Texas.
Our ministry journey began at Speedway Christian Fellowship in Justin, Texas, where we devoted 24 wonderful years of service. It was a blessing to lead and nurture that congregation, and we are excited to continue our mission after merging with Living Word Teaching Center in 2018.
Outside of our ministry, we are grateful parents to two grown sons, two wonderful daughter-in-loves and proud grandparents to four wonderful grandchildren. Our family is a central part of our lives, and we cherish the moments spent together.
We look forward to welcoming you into our church community and family where we hope to grow in faith and fellowship together. May God’s blessings be with you as we embark on this journey in Rhome.
With heartfelt blessings,
Pastor Curtis and Debbie Butler
We Believe...
1. The Bible is the inspired Word of God and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, for instruction in righteousness. (2 Tim. 3:16, 2 Peter 1:21)
2. Jesus was God manifested in the flesh, conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, was crucified, died, rose from the dead the third day, ascended into heaven, and is seated on the right hand of God making intercession for us, He is coming back again and will judge the quick and the dead. (1 Tim. 3:16, Jn 1:1, Matt. 1:23, Heb. 4:15, Mark 16:19)
3. Salvation through the shed blood of Jesus. Forgiveness of sin. Salvation by grace and not works. (Eph. 2:8-9, John 3:16, Acts 16:31)
4. Healing for the whole man---spirit, soul, and body. (Isa. 53:5, 1 Thes. 5:23, 1 Pet. 2:24)
5. The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Godhead. The infilling of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in other tongues. It is a separate experience from salvation. Comes on people to endue them with power and equip them with power and equip them for ministry. The gifts of the Spirit are available to every believer and are necessary for the church to function as God intended. (Acts 2:4, 38-39, Acts 10:44-48, 1 Cor. 12:4-11, 1 Cor. 14)
6. Deliverance (Mark 16:17, Isa. 61:1-3, Lk. 4:18-19
7. The blessed hope-resurrection of the body and life everlasting.
