"All
scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking,
correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God
may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
Monti Renner has a BS in
Bible from Freed-Hardeman University, an MA in History from East Texas State University
and an MS in Mission from Abilene Christian University.
From 1991-2006 he served as a missionary in Oelsnitz, Germany. Oelsnitz lays in what was once the former communist
East Germany.
While in
Germany, Monti helped to
plant two congregations and worked with a congregation that had its start in the days of communism. There are
now over 80 Christians where once there were none.
Monti became
the evangelist for the Plymouth congregation in September of 2006.
