Mark 16:15 - "And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to the whole creation. "

The ministers of the University church of Christ serve under the oversight of the elders preaching the truth in both love and boldness. Each of these men has been found to be firm and steadfastly grounded in the truth, preaching God's word in its entirety, and completeness.
