I have known Pastor Clint for 25 years and have watching him move through various phases of his life of ministry. Clint is a passionate Kingdom worker who makes ministry his life's calling and not "just a job." He knows how to "plant" a church and do all the necessary and important things related to developing a growing church. Clint's strengths in a weekly church setting are definitely in preaching and personal relationships. In his personal life, he places high value on integrity and commitment to his wife and family. - Lew VanderMeer, Senior Pastor, New Community Church, Grand Rapids, Michigan
Pastor Clint is a wise and gifted teacher. He communicates the truth of Scripture with clarity and energy that engages listeners at every level of spiritual maturity. I personally have appreciated his willingness to take risks and raise up other leaders in the Body of Christ. He is more than a leader, he is a team builder and a visionary. He exudes the love of Christ and the joy of the Holy Spirit. He is truly a gift to the Body of Christ and his life experience would benefit any church. Rev. Shawna Diehl, M.T.S., Th.M., Adjunct Faculty, Regent University, Pastor, Love on Fire Ministries
Pastor Clint is a wonderful pastor who not only has a heart for people, but for the great commission being fulfilled! Though, I followed him from a distance, as he was a partner to help me reach Asia, he was also at work having a true heart serving the community, through bible studies, coaching, discipleship, as well as preaching the Word with passion and enthusiasm. Him and Michelle would make a great asset to anyone's team! Dawn Peterlein, Missionary - Philippines.
Back in 2008 I lost my father. One of his final statements was that he was disappointed that his kids had left the church. I made a decision to return and started to look for a church that fit my general demeanor. Also, as a guitarist, i was hoping to be able to participate in the music ministry for the church. I discovered a church with a pastor who had an absolute passion for teaching, worship and people. Pastor Clint helped me overcome my grief from the loss of my father, as well as helping me to come back to the church. His compassion during our discussions was a huge help to me, and his energy and passion during services made me believe that that is where I belonged. I am honored to still call him my friend. David Knittle, former LifeTrak Worship Team member.
Clint’s preaching is an infusion of energy, humor and relatability wrapped around his genuine passion for presenting Biblical truths to empower people for a fuller life. He draws upon his life experience to deliver sermons that speak to the heart and challenge the listener. J.D. Gonzales, Adjunct Worship Leader (Better Life Church), Bachelors of Religious Education, M.A. (Communication).
I had been a member of Pastor Abbott’s previous 2 church congregations, originally LifeTrak and most recently Better Life Church for 8 years. During that time, my family and I found Pastor Abbott to be an energetic, passionate servant of God whose messages were always relevant, relatable and informative, delivered in an “attention grabbing” manner. Pastor Abbott is also a firm believer in bringing people together through “Small Group Worship” throughout the year and he is a man of the highest integrity. I have always been proud to call him my Pastor and my friend, and am confident he would be an outstanding member of any church organization. Please feel free to contact me directly should you have any further questions. Ryan Ward, Regional Manager, Red Robin Restaurants
I've been a ministry colleague of Pastor Clint for 20+ years. Throughout that time I have known him to always be relatable, relevant and real both in person and the pulpit. His passion for connecting people to God in a non-judgmental way has been the hallmark of his pastoring and preaching. If you're looking for someone who is able to connect the Word of God with the lives of everyday people, definitely consider using Clint.
