Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood. Acts 20:28

Who We Are

Our Elders

Grace & Truth is a part of the denomination known as the Reformed Presbyterian Church of North America (RPCNA). As a denomination, we believe in the importance of having a plurality of elders in every church. We distinguish the function of these elders between teaching and ruling elders, though all elders serve in the church as shepherds of the congregation with equal authority. Grace & Truth currently has one teaching elder, Ryan Bever (our pastor), and two ruling elders, Paul Martin and Jonathan Bucher. In addition, we also have another ruling elder from another church, David Merkel, who currently helps to assist the congregation from a distance. As we welcome you to our church we encourage you to get to know our elders. If you want to learn more about a Biblical view of the eldership, Pastor Ryan Bever recently preached a series of sermons on Presbyterian Church Government in his series on the book of Titus, which you can listen to by clicking on the following link: https://www.graceandtruthrpc.org/sermons/?wpfc_sermon_topics=presbyterian-church-government

Pastor Ryan Bever graduated from Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary in May of 2017 and accepted a pastoral call to Grace & Truth around the same time. He and his family have enjoyed making their transition to the Harrisonburg area. Ryan has a passion for preaching, evangelism, and church planting and is hopeful that Grace & Truth will continue to grow and flourish.
