Pulpit Minister – Lee E. Lewis, Jr.

Click here to send Lee an email

Lee and his wife Michelle, formerly of San Antonio, TX, became members of the church in 1994. Very soon afterwards, Lee began to pursue the ministry. Having studied with ministers, elders and the Sunset International Bible Institute, he was ordained in February 2001. Since then he has served in an associate capacity at congregations in both the San Antonio and St. Louis areas.  He has served in the capacity of pulpit minister at the O’Fallon Church of Christ in O’Fallon, MO since 2006.

Having completed a bachelor's degree in business administration from Texas Southern University, Lee is now pursuing a masters degree in theology from Christian Bible College and Seminary.

While preaching the gospel in the Lord’s church for over 10 years, he has come to the knowledge and understanding of the need to diligently pursue the commission placed on all who call on the name of the Lord by Christ himself: to go, teach, baptize and continue to teach, according to Matthew 28:19-20.  “I am thankful to our Heavenly Father for the awesome privilege and the grave responsibility to share his divinely inspired word and serve His people,” says Lee.

Lee and Michelle have been married for 16 years and have eight children: Kennard, Tigh, Brittani, Taylor, Torri, Arielle, Jhory and Paris.

Favorite Bible Character: Nehemiah

Favorite Activity: Playing with grandchildren

Favorite verse: Philippians 4:13

Philosophy of Education: K.I.S.M.I.F. (Keep it Simple, Make it Fun).

Every Bible class or sermon must be applicable to our lives as Christians. We should strive as teachers to make the lessons livable and exciting for every student. Life is too short to be boring. Make the most of every opportunity to inspire, encourage and teach.
