How it all started...
HISTORY
In the summer of 2013, Edward was led, through personal study in the book of Jeremiah, to begin to pray about how to reach those that (a) really want to study and know the Word of God in a way that transforms their life and family (b) have been uninterested, given up or have been turned off by traditional church.
Since our first service on September 8, 2013 to now, God has continuously provided for this ministry.

WHAT DOES THE LONGVIEW NAME MEAN?
We see life clearly and narrowly in one direction like looking through a peep hole. But, God alone understands the purpose of our painful, shameful, confusing past, or the questions of our present circumstance and the worry of our future. Therefore, the LongView name is really a summary of our purpose and existence as a ministry to share the hope and encouragement of the longer, broader perspective of God.
Past: Jeremiah 1:5 "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you a prophet to the nations."
Present: Jeremiah 1:17 But you, dress yourself for work; arise, and say to them everything that I command you. Do not be dismayed by them, lest I dismay you before them.
Future: Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares The Lord, plans for peace and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.
