What do we teach?

We believe in one God, who came in the form of man to redeem the world from their sins. This man, who is 100% God as well as being 100% man, is Jesus Christ (John 1:1,14; Colossians 2:12; Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5-6; 1 Timothy 2:5; John 10:30). We believe in baptism for the remission of sin (Acts 2:38, Rom. 6:4, Col. 2:12, 1 Pet. 3:21). We believe the Holy Ghost is essential for salvation (Acts 2:4, Acts 2:38, Acts 19:6, Tit. 3:5).

We believe that Christians should live their lives in holiness, which is the process of sanctification as discussed in the Bible. ( 1 Peter 1:13-16; 1 Peter 2:9; Hebrews 12:14; 2 Corinthians 7:1) Additionally we are to edify and encourage our fellow believers.


What is our mission?

Our mission was given by Jesus Christ. In Matthew 28:19 Jesus told us to make disciples of all the world. As such it is our belief that Bible study plays an integral part in discipling people. If you are interested in a 12 week Bible Study which covers all of the major teachings of the church and goes from the beginning to the end of the Bible, please contact us.

Specifically, Apostolics of Anderson’s mission is to share the whole gospel (death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ) to McDonald County, Missouri. The Apostolics of Anderson is affiliated with the United Pentecostal Church International.


Our Team

Our Pastors are Ryan and Teena Gustason. Pastor Ryan grew up an athiest and encountered God is his early twenties while stationed in the U.S. Navy on Okinawa Japan. Teena had been searching for God since her early childhood. Jesus led us, through the military, to Okinawa Japan where we received truth and salvation, and was baptized in Jesus' name in the South China Sea.

Pastor Ryan has a Master's degree in Theology from Urshan Graduate School of Theology (UGST) and is currently persuing a Master's of Divinity from UGST and a Ph.D. in History from Liberty University.

Both are thrilled with the journey God is leading His church through.
