ENDORSEMENTS
Pastor Justin Deeter, Lead Pastor, Redemption Church
Trell Ross is a man committed to the authority of the Scriptures who powerfully preaches the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He desires what so many churches have neglected--to see the “dividing wall of hostility” torn down as Christ works to reconcile to Himself a multi-ethnic Church. I’m excited to see what God will do through Trell as he plants and leads Pioneer Church. He is a brother worthy of our support and prayer as he seeks to advance the Gospel of Jesus Christ through church planting.
Dr. Jim Shaddix, Professor of Preaching, SEBTS
I have the privilege of working with young preachers and leaders who are training to shepherd Christ’s church and proclaim His Word. I consider Trell Ross to be among the cream of the crop when it comes to the new generation of pastors and church planters. This brother loves the Gospel and is committed to its advancement among the nations. He loves people deeply, expounds God’s Word accurately and passionately, and leads teams skillfully. And he roots all of it in a deep devotion to sacrificial prayer. I’m excited to watch as our Lord gives great grace to Trell for shepherding His church in South Carolina for His glory.
Prof. Ronjour Locke, Instructor of Preaching & Urban Ministry, SEBTS
I’ve had the privilege of knowing Trell for nearly two years. I’ve been impressed with his maturity and wisdom in this short period. His pastoral heart and love for Christ are evident to all who know him. He models Christ-likeness in his home, church, and community, and he strives to grow even more in his gospel witness. I am thrilled to see how the Lord will use him to make disciples in South Carolina.
Pastor Stephen Dervan, Lead Pastor, Oak Hill Baptist Church
The clear hand of God is easily sensed on the lives of Trell and Lauren Ross. Their passion for Jesus, His Church, and the lost is contagious and I count it an honor to affirm them as they trust God in this journey. I truly believe that our Great God is going to do great things in them and through them as they move to Rock Hill, South Carolina to replant Sylvia Circle Baptist Church. Rebecca and I will be supporting them with both our prayers and finances as they dig in to all that God has for them there.
Minister Sean Robinson, Minister to Students & Families, Open Door Church
It's without hesitation that I can say Trell and Lauren are committed to making much of Christ with their lives. I am overjoyed to watch this journey the Lord has made evident for them as they carry the gospel to Rock Hill, SC. In the time frame that I've known them, they've walked with a quality balance of humility and boldness that is contagious to those around them. It is this Christ-like heart that will carry them through the moments of ministry ahead. Trell and Lauren recognize the importance of team and unity, and this along with many other reasons is why we're behind them. I pray others would come alongside Trell and Lauren in supporting them as they seek to advance the Kingdom of God to the glory of His name.
