Preacher
Lyle Asbill
I was born in Montgomery, AL at Maxwell Air Force Base when my father was serving in the US Armed Forces. I have lived in Alaska, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alberta, Canada, which is where my mother was from. I left Edmonton to attend Oklahoma Christian and graduated in 1982 with degrees in Bible and Social Work. I have been preaching for 28 years; having served churches in Des Moines, IA, Grapevine, TX, Indianapolis, IN and this is my second time here in Naples. Prior to full-time ministry I worked for 10 years in Oklahoma City in Commercial Real Estate, served as a deacon and was part of a religious theatre group. I have been married to my wife, Carrie, for almost 35 years and we have 2 children; a son Christian who lives in Tulsa, OK with his family and a daughter Baylee who lives in Naples with her family. I have a keen interest in Foreign Missions. I have had the opportunity to make several trips to Ukraine as well as Russia, Nicaragua, and Ghana. My favorite part about ministry is watching people have those "aha" moments when the truth of God's word becomes clear.
Shepherd
Hugh Travis
Over fifty years ago a beautiful Christian lady grabbed hold of my heart and soul. Diana Rollins led me to Christ and we have enjoyed forty five years of marriage. My prayer is for God to continue to allow me to labor in His kingdom for His glory and honor.
Matthew 22:37-39
Shepherd
Barry Brown
During a Bible study with friends, Barry learned that the only way to become a Christian was to be baptized by immersion. He became an active member following the scriptural idea that without works, faith is dead. It was while he was going through the death of a child that Barry saw our congregational “faith and works” to encourage him and his family. Revelation 22:18-19 and Proverbs 3:3-5
Youth Minister
Alex Tucker
Born in Henderson, TN to amazing parents that made sure I was raised in the instruction of the Lord in a true demonstration of love. Growing up in the Estes Church of Christ, I was encouraged and mentored by many amazing people. I attended Freed-Hardeman University where I received my degree in Youth and Family Ministry. I married the wonderful Hannah Tucker, together we are the proud parents of our little boy, Evan. My favorite part of ministry is being able to be with people when they realize the love and sacrifice that our Father made for us. John 3:16
Shepherd
Scott Otey
Not having been raised in the Church probably provides me with a unique perspective on Church Leadership. No pre-conceived ideas or tainted hopes. I absolutely adore my church family, as much as my immediate earthy family After 40 plus years in the working world I recently retired from full time work. I now understand better than ever before that NONE of us are identified by our profession-by "what we do". We are identified by our relationship to Christ and with each other!
Evangelism Minister
Russ Bone
My wife and I have been married for 51 years and as we grow closer to each other our desire is to grow closer to Jesus as we try to serve the Church for which He gave His life. The goal in any ministry we serve is to help our fellow Christians fall in love with God’s Word and realize it MUST be our constant “roadmap.“
Psalms 119:105–Thy Word is a lamp unto my feet along life’s pathway.
