Pastor James Cordell thought he and his wife, Crystal, would be Student Pastors for life. They had been serving in that capacity for almost 10 years when God began to change their hearts. Through a prophetic word spoken over them in 2007, the Lord said that he wanted James to plant a new church in Rockmart. Just like King David was anointed to be King long before he actually stepped into the position, Pastor James, too, would have a season of time before he stepped into the Lead Pastor role. Finally in 2010, God said, “Go!” Pastors James and Crystal knew that God had given them a passion to make disciples and not just converts. So, with a focus on getting back to the basics of what Jesus taught, 101 Church was born.
