About Our Pastors
Faithfully Serving the Lord by Preaching His Unchanging, Perfect Word
Daniel P. Franklin
Daniel P. Franklin was saved as a young boy during the Protestant revivals of the 1950s. He was called to ministry in 1973 balancing both work as a business executive and serving as an assistant pastor at Grace Bible Church. However, provoked by the evolution of the mainstream Christian church from a Christ-centered witness into a man-centered organization promoting the false gospel of self-esteem, he resigned his secular duties in the year 2000 to devote himself to ministry. He now faithfully serves as our pastor preaching Sunday and Wednesday sermons along with writing a timely devotional: Shepherd’s Heart.
Philip K. Owen
Philip K. Owen arrived at Grace Bible Church in 1975 and has served the Lord in ministry in the church since 1978. He and his wife Betty have one son and daughter-in-law, one daughter, and seven grandchildren. Philip currently serves as Grace Bible Church’s assistant pastor teaching our adult Sunday school class as well as writing a weekly devotional: Grace Notes. He also serves in our music ministry as our choir director and main congregational hymn leader.
