About the Diocese

“For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to the
battle?”
I Corinthians 14:8

We live in a world of “uncertain sound[s]”—confusing, conflicting, cryptic. Because “there are “so many kinds of voices in the world,” we, often, find it difficult to hear God’s truth in the cacophony of competing ideas. We know that we are called to combat, but where is the “certain sound” which will enable us to “prepare to the battle.” Our objective is clear, but what are our orders for the campaign?

The Missionary Diocese of the South and Ozarks is a body of Christians, spread over two-thirds of the United States, which embraces the “certain sound” of divine revelation in the Scriptures. We believe that the true and living God has condescended to speak to His people by His word written, and that every word of it is “certain.” We believe that it is a battle plan that will bring us to victory over the word, the flesh, and the
devil.


Please feel free to browse these pages. We hope to answer any questions that you may have about us and our mission—to make Christ known in our field of labor.
