Hello, I am Pastor George Lyman. I have been serving Desert Shores Community Baptist Church (DSCBC) since January of 2003. I answered the call to ministry in August of 2001 and I have been blessed to serve God in many ways since that time.
My call to ministry was preceded by service as a Probation Officer for Mohave County for 17 years. I graduated from Grand Canyon (College) University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology. I graduated one week and got married to my beloved wife Martha a week later. We have two adult children and four grandchildren, with hopefully a few more on the way one day.
After I answered the call to serve as Pastor of DSCBC I felt called to continue my education and I enrolled in seminary at Gateway, formerly Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary. After 8 years of travel, classes, ministry, and effort, I graduated in 2013. I was amazed at how the classes fit the situation that the church was struggling with or I needed to improve on. I was grateful for fellow students, mentors, associational leaders and fellow pastors who supported me. I was blessed to learn and grow.
I believe in servant leadership. I am the pastor, but I am also called to minister and serve those in my congregation. I teach from the bible in an expositional manner, verse by verse and I try to help those I serve apply it in service to the Lord.
I believe in our purpose statement , and I will do all I can to share the love of Jesus and help those whom I serve grow in the grace and knowledge of the Lord.
