          Knowledgeable, humorous and energetic Pastor Fulton is committed to delivering the word of God with clarity, power and authority.  God has given him a clear mission statement from Habakkuk 2:2, “…Write the vision and make it plain that he that reads might run…” Pastor Fulton has persisted in this task from the time God called him to be a minister at nineteen years of age until this very day.  Preach!  Pastor Fulton will preach at the drop of a hat.  Preach! Pastor Fulton will preach instantly in season and out of season.  Preach!  Pastor Fulton will preach without restraint or respect of person.  Preach! Pastor Fulton will preach by the Spirit of God, the Word of God that heals, saves and delivers.  Pastor Fulton believes in the deepest part of his being that he is called by God, ordained by God and directed by God, to this place, at this time, to bring this word, to this people.  No more secrets, no more lies, no more deception. Pastor Fulton believes that supporting people in building their relationship with God is more important than building a “church.”  Simply put Pastor Fulton believes in “prosperity from the inside out.”  Now that will preach!
