Andy Woods

Andy became a Christian at the age of 16. After graduating from college, he taught an adult Sunday school class for several years while attending Law School. After Graduating from Law School, Andy was asked to serve as Interim Pastor of Rivera First Baptist. He did this part-time for 3 years while he also continued as a part-time Community College Instructor (Business Law and related courses) at Citrus College and sole practitioner of his California law practice. After 3 years he was encouraged by his friends, family and parishioners to continue to develop his spiritual gift of teaching by seeking a seminary education.

After graduating from Dallas Theological Seminary, He was approached by Dr. Thomas Ice to adapt his seminary thesis to be used as a chapter in the book End Times Controversy: The Second Coming Under Attack (edited by Tim LaHaye and Thomas Ice). He was also a speaker for the August 2003 conference of the Conservative Theological Society (for whom he has also written book reviews and journal articles). In the fall of 2003, he was co-instructor for Tyndale Theological Seminary's Crisis In The Church Seminar. More recently, Andy contributed some articles to The Popular Encyclopedia of Bible Prophecy (edited by Tim LaHaye and Ed Hindson).

Andy's desire is to make the Word of God the focus of the church.

Andy earned a B.A. in Business Administration and a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Redlands, a Juris Doctor degree at Whittier Law School, and a Th.M. degree at Dallas Theological Seminary where he is currently a Ph.D student.
