Join us for our 2023 spring revival with Rev. Charles Elliott, May 21-24. This is our annual event where we set time apart as the body of Christ to allow the Holy Spirit to refresh, renew, and revive. Nursery care (0-3 yrs) will be available each evening by our wonderful volunteers! Bring your family and friends for this exciting time of seeking God together as the body of Christ!
About Our Speaker
Rev. Charles “Chuck” Elliott serves as Associate Pastor of Brookside Church in Chillicothe, OH. A graduate of Circleville Bible College in Circleville OH (now Ohio Christian University) and Wesley Biblical Seminary in Jackson, MS, he is married to his lovely wife, Jenny, and together they live near the Scioto River where they enjoy forests and farms so characteristic of the wide-open spaces and hilly lifts of beautiful southern Ohio.
Both Chuck and Jenny were drawn to Jesus and gave themselves to God and His purposes very early in their lives. Chuck served as a missionary in Hungary and Ukraine for 10 years, as a Christian educator in Ohio and Mississippi for 6 years, and as a cattle producer in Ohio for 10 years. While serving in these capacities, across the past 30 years, Chuck has served multiple pastoral roles within the Church, mostly bi-vocationally. Jenny has served communities in both Ohio and Mississippi as a pharmacist for her entire professional life. Together they have sought to be faithful living witnesses of Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection by conforming to the gospel and by connecting in meaningful ways with others in collegiate and congregational life.
Chuck and Jenny enjoy traveling with friends, being in nature, trying new recipes, listening to most music, drinking African and South American coffees, exploring open-air farm markets, and watching BritBox.
Over the course of revival week, Chuck will be sharing a series of messages on the theme, “True Christian Daring: Proclaiming the multifaceted nature of Holy Love in the Harbor of Hospitality.”

“You can enter God’s Kingdom only through the narrow gate.” (Matthew 7:13, NLT)
In ancient Greece, Corinth was a major seaport city that became both prosperous and licentious. It was a center of wealth, entertainment, military power, and cult religion, but also intellectual pride and moral laxity, prompting the phrase “living like a Corinthian” to become an insult cast upon vagrants, drunkards, and sexual deviants.
We live in an age of disinformation, a time when nothing can be trusted, when all information is to be treated with suspicion. It is an age marked by rumor, conjecture, opinion, and bias, a time of both conspiracy and theory. Christians have claimed for 2,000 years to know the truth, but what happens when the foundations of the faith entrusted to the church are being compromised from within? How is such a situation identified, and what are we to do in response?
“And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had.” (Acts 2:44, NLT)
