Pastor Duane S. McNair, Sr.

I am indeed blessed and honored to have the opportunity to greet each of you; our friends and visitors of Better Life Ministries Church Of God In Christ web site. I thank Almighty God for His unwavering grace and mercy toward us and pray that God’s unconditional love will abide in you eternally.
 
 As the Pastor of this church, I am dedicated to helping fulfill the purpose of the Church; which is stated in the Word of God, “For the perfecting of the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ”. The word perfect means to reach full development. Today, we have many people “saints” living beneath the standards of God and we must uncompromisingly teach and preach the word of God so that people will become doers of God’s word and not hearers only. This is our end state and desired result for our developing Christians. We can only achieve this by staying connected to Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. For Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and my father is the husbandman.” (John 15:3) Jesus is the source of our strength. Without a connection to Him we loose our source of strength, power, love, and fruitfulness. Today, God’s desire is that you abide in Him, and He in you. As a result of this covenant relationship, you will experience much fruit and He will get the glory! Praise God!
 
 Today, my prayer for you is that you will experience a Better Life!
