WOW! 73 Years... I've Got A Story For YOU!

I have an incredible story to tell you. It's a story of God's faithfulness to Sheridan.Church in Tulsa, OK over the last 73 years.

On the last Sunday of November In 1951, Glenn & Ola Millard started at small fellowship (around 12 people) in their garage at 2nd & Sheridan.

Pastors Glenn + Ola Millard

This small fellowship quickly grew into one of Tulsa's largest churches in the 1950's.

Soon a new auditorium was built and Sheridan Road Assembly of God became the hub of the charismatic movement in the 1960's in Tulsa.

Pastor Glenn Millard invited a Texas evenglesit named Kenneth Hagin to Tulsa to hold a revival at Sheridan.

That revival went weeks upon weeks and Kenneth Hagin decided to move to Tulsa.

Pastor Millard and Kenneth Hagin built a a tremendous relationship and Rhema Bible Training Center was launched at Sheridan.

This was not the first Bible College to start at Sheridan though. Trinity Bible College started at Sheridan as well and then branched out on its' own.

The first two graduating classes of Rhema held all their classes at Sheridan until they expanded to Broken Arrow, OK.

During the two years that Rhema was housed at Sheridan, there was a young couple freshly out of Oral Roberts University who started attending Rhema and became the Youth Pastors at Sheridan.

Glenn + Ola Millard with Billy Joe + Sharon Daugherty

Billy Joe + Sharon Daugherty served as the Youth Pastors at Sheridan while attending classes at Rhema Bible College.

A few years later, Pastor Glenn Millard decided to retire and transitioned the leadership of the church to the Daugherty's.

Under Billy Joe + Sharon Daugherty, the church rebranded from Sheridan Road Assembly of God to Sheridan Christian Center and quickly grew.

Due to the huge growth of the church in 1981, Billy Joe + Sharon Daugherty launched Victory Christian Center out of Sheridan Christian Center.

Pastor Vep Ellis with Pastor Jackson Lahmeyer

The third pastor to take the helm at Sheridan was Vep + Lavonne Ellis.

Under the leadership of Pastor Ellis several programs and ministries were launched in the Tulsa area.

Many are unaware that Sheridan has planted over 30 churches and launched many more ministries over 73 years such as: Grace Church, Eastland Assembly of God and etc...

For 34 years, Pastor Ellis expanded the reach of Sheridan in Tulsa area until he decided to retire in 2017 and that's where Kendra and I come into the story...

Something that amazes me about Sheridan over 73 years is how we have had ONLY 4 pastors.

Since 2017, we have seen Sheridan re-blossom and God is doing great things today in our midst!

I want to thank Pastor Ellis, our church members and so many others for the opportunity to serve as the 4th Pastor of Sheridan.Church. It's the honor of a lifetime!

Tomorrow at 10am CT, we will celebrate 73 years!

See you there.

Thank you,
Pastor Jackson Lahmeyer

Last week at Sheridan.Church, I started a mini-series within our WKND series over the Book of Acts.

In Acts 17, the Apostle Paul spent 3 weeks in Thessalonica reasoning, explaining and proving Jesus from the Old Testament Scriptures.

Therefore, yesterday I took the Book of Genesis and reasoned, explained and proved Jesus as Messiah from those 50 chapters in the 1st book of the Bible.

Next Sunday, we will find Jesus in Exodus and Leviticus and the following Sunday we will look for Jesus in Numbers and Deuteronomy.

I believe the sermon from yesterday will really teach you some things that maybe you have never seen before from the Book of Genesis.
