What You Will Find In GOD’S Word
The Bible holds the answers to all things. Without these pages that we have been left it would be a much different Universe. Imagine a world without answers, hopes, or dreams. These 66 books of the Bible are inspired by God Himself. Every word has been placed upon these pages with the given authority to pierce our very soul. It is with this book in which we can be rooted in truth at any given time or lifestyle. It is the goal of this ministry to point people to the Bible. To point people to Jesus Christ. It has been said that people cannot live without Hope. Look to the Bible. Inside you will find the only hope. Jesus Christ.
Our Story
Evangelist David Aldridge spent 15 years in the greatest evangelism tool that churches have today. The Bus Ministry. Not only did it change his view of souls but also the lives of many people. Five years was spent preaching every Sunday to a large group of teenagers in a teen church. Then he was moved into the role of Bus director where he would lead over 650 Bus riders every week and 15 Junior Church programs. Under the leadership of his pastor, Dr. Tim Gammons, David would be ordained into the ministry in September of 2023. It was after this that David felt a calling to evangelism. In November of 2024 he obeyed God and left the love of his life Woodland Baptist Church in Winston Salem N.C. and the Bus ministry in order to help other churches and their Pastor. To encourage, love, and be a blessing to God’s people. His number one goal is to point people toward Jesus Christ.

Meet Evangelist David Aldridge
David was born in Boone N.C. where he grew up and went to school. He lived in a Christian home where his dad was also a preacher growing up. At the age of 16 he accepted Christ into his heart and God began a work that still grows today. After going to Maryland upon graduation God would send his future wife his way. He would meet and marry Amy. Then God would give David and Amy two daughters that would almost complete the family. It was after this that two great son-in-laws would enter into the picture. One of David’s greatest highlights of his life was to marry both of his daughters.
At age 36 David would finally surrender to preach and place his focus on God. At this point David’s Pastor would put him to work in many areas of Woodland Baptist Church. He would find his love in the Bus Ministry. Eventually he would become Bus director and to this day you will often hear him say “This is my heart.” In November of 2024 God would move him to evangelism to carry on the love for souls.
