Pryor Creek Community Church is an assembly of believers in Jesus Christ that have an intense desire to live their lives wholly for the glory of God. Within this family of faith, there are a multiplicity of gifts and callings that are functioning to the glory of God and to the well-being of the Church. Pryor Creek Community Church is an Evangelical Church that is not affiliated with any major denomination. Pastor Melton's gifts are apparent in his preaching; the gift of repentance preaching. Pastor Melton has been led of God to re-dig the "old-wells" and to study the ministries of the Puritans, such as Jonathan Edwards, John Owens, William Gurnall, Joseph Aillene, and Richard Baxter. Also, Charles Spurgeon, William Booth, Judson, Tozer and Ravenhill have deeply impacted Pastor Melton's life.
 
    The services at Pryor Creek Community Church are powerful and life changing. The worship is Christ exalting, using both hymnody and choruses that glorify God and His sovereignty. The messages that come from the pulpit are powerfully anointed and life changing. Each message challenges the believer to commit to Christ Jesus and to bear their own cross in self denial. Pryor Creek Community Church stands opposed to the easy believism that is so prevalent in modern churches. We stand upon the scriptural authority that man must be born-again before he can enter the Kingdom of God. We find no scriptural authority for common practices such as the "sinners prayer" which leads to false conversions.
 
    The scriptures declare that the depraved man, or the man dead in his sins, cannot remedy himself. Consequently, God must come to him through the proclamation of the Gospel and ‘enliven’ or impart new life before he is capable of believing or repenting. (Faith and repentance are spiritual virtues the fallen man is incapable of, and hostile against.) This new life not only gives ability to believe and repent; it also gives desire. Consequently:
 
    The Scriptures declare that through repentance for sin, and faith towards God, man is converted. Being so, we refuse to conform to the commonly practiced, cultural religious etiquette; but stand strong upon the authority of the Word of God that declares man must repent of his sins, and assert faith towards God to be truly born-again.
 
    We believe that true repentance will produce the fruit of godly living. Without this fruit, true repentance has not been attained. The work of the Holy Spirit is to convict the world of sin; being so, conviction is a grace unto repentance. Without this work, salvation is impossible. It is imperative that the powerful preaching of the Law of God and the Gospel of Jesus Christ come into conflict with sinful man that he might see his condemned state as a sinner and to experience the deep conviction and contrition for his sins against a Holy God. Moreover, it is imperative that the sinner understands that Jesus Christ is his only way of escape from the wrath of God that is upon all sinful men such as himself. In this great dilemma, the sinner repents of his sins, and trusts in Christ for His mercy and pardon unto salvation. Subsequently, the redeemed man becomes a follower of Jesus Christ, devoted to Him and committed for eternity.
 
    We also believe that Missions is an imperative command for the Lord's true church. PCCC is deeply involved with world missions; not only monetarily by giving finances, but practically by sending believers into the field of harvest. PCCC is in partnership with Asian Tribal Ministries based out of Chiang Mai, Thailand. This partnership produces opportunities for teams to be sent into the war-zone areas of Burma for outreach with the Karen tribe. PCCC sends teams to this remote region as the Lord opens up the doors.
 
    We also believe that we are to take care of our orphans and widows. Since 1993 the State of Oklahoma has worked hand-in-hand with us, bringing us 400-500 teenagers per year from across our State to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The Thunderbird Youth Academy located in Pryor, Oklahoma has been in relationship with us, entrusting us to provide services for their cadets. This is a unique opportunity to reach this generation of at-risk youth with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and to make disciples of them; as these are the orphans of our society. We are blessed beyond measure to serve them, and to love them.
 
    Our great desire is to see the body of Christ mobilized and functioning as a body and not individuals after their own desires. In this desire, we strive for each member of the body of Christ to excel in the gifts in which they have been entrusted. The membership of PCCC are actively engaged in the body of Christ; they are not just filling a pew. The membership is submitted to the vision of the local church and under authority of the leadership of the church, with zeal and passion. We are passionately going forward, growing together, and glorifying God as we advance. We invite you to join us in this pursuit!
