Worship Sundays 10:30 am & 5 pm

Doy is the Evangelist for the Lake Gibson church of Christ in Lakeland, Florida. He will be presenting a series of important lessons on the "The Kingship of Jesus - Bible Authority in the Light of Scripture". These lessons are imperative to you and the Lord’s church and we encourage you to join us. They will be simply understood, deeply foundational and will help you in your understanding to the work and worship of our Great God in the light of scripture.

Doy grew up in California and has been a gospel preacher for nearly 40 years, working with several churches throughout the US. He's been married to Laurie for 38 years, and they have three grown children and 7 grandchildren. He is currently working with the Lake Gibson church in Lakeland, FL while teaching full time in the Biblical Studies faculty at Florida College. Special interests include worldview issues, apologetics, Bible authority, and hermeneutics.
