Rory Moore came to the Lord in 1979 at the age of 28. He married Linda age 24, in 1983 and they have three children: daughter Savanah, sons Jetrey and Dustin.
For 24 years he and Linda were church insiders doing almost everything you can do in a church without turning "pro". As an Assistant Pastor, Youth Leader, licensed minister, Elder, Board member, preacher, fund raiser, altar worker, deacon, building maintenance, counselor, visitation minister, Rory was a pillar to his church.
His wife Linda was Choir Director for 7 years, a singer, Sunday School teacher, and they were both faithful attendees of almost every service and function of the church.
This occurred as their church transitioned from a denominational Pentecostal church into a non-denominational Evangelical Christian church. They always worked closely with their churches pastors and leadership and had many friends in ministry and the church.
As the years went by, they did not give heed to the progressive decline away from the scriptures and prayer as they stayed busy with church programs, activities, and the routine of church life. For years they were among the first to arrive and were among the last to leave church services.
In 2004 in the wake of a family crisis, and the passing of his dad, Rory sought the Lord fervently and returned to regular and prayerful study of the Bible.
After asking the Lord for the truth about a number of taken-for-granted, never-questioned church practices, he began to ask uncomfortable questions which were outside the church box. It came as a shock when he saw there was no specific Word to Christians or churches that they were to pay tithes.
While diligently studying the New Testament church practices in scripture, he was astonished to find there was no substantiation for commonly accepted church doctrines such as tithing, the typical pastor-sole-head-of church, and other importantant subjects.
In addition, as he studied the role models of Christian faith in the lives of the disciples in the New Testament, he realized the church he attended bore little resemblance to the church in scripture.
So on Sept. 29, 2004, after a heart rending decision, Rory and Linda walked away from the church they helped to found in 1993.
Rory was seeing and reading things in the New Testament that simply did not square with what he and many others had accepted without question for many years as they obeyed "them that had the rule over them".
They fit the typical middle of the road Christian role model of the sincere, loyal, church going family for 24 years but felt they had to leave the church in order to find God. What they found was the church had left God.
After more than 3,500 church services, staff meetings, revivals, and related gatherings, they walked out into a spiritual wilderness.
It meant letting go of the traditional church paradigm to Christianity which was very difficult. The Lord graciously confirmed these things in a multitude of dreams and from Holy Scripture, from which they had departed from while in the church. The Lord God became their shepherd.
God has given Rory a gift and calling for writing, and he operates in several of the Holy Spirit gifts: healing, Word of Knowledge, and interpretation of dreams as God enables. As the Lord leads and inspires him to write he posts article here on this website.
A bit of history regarding this site is found on our Blog post #1, scroll down to "Early November".
He also recognizes the urgency for God's people to forsake the kingdoms of men and "come out from among them saith the Lord", that is, from the apostate, powerless, religious instituions of men.
