Who We Are

A church built on faith, family & the Word.

Bible Word Ministry is a ministry dedicated to teaching the true Word of God as it is written in the Bible, and dedicated to seeing souls saved to serve the Lord. We are an online church — a home for worshippers wherever they are.

Pastor Patrick Royster was licensed in the ministry in 2012, ordained as an elder in 2018, and installed as Pastor this year. He holds a Bachelor of Ministry and a Master of Divinity from Christian Bible College and Seminary. Under his leadership, our mission is simple: to lead people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and to equip them to serve their families and their communities — no building required.

Our Mission

To teach the true Word of God as it is written, and to see souls saved to serve the Lord.

Our Beliefs

Rooted in Scripture, guided by grace, and lived out in truth every day.

Our Youth

We are dedicated to reaching young people with the true Word of God, and we are building more for our youth ministry.

Praise Reports

What this ministry has meant to our family.

A Truly Impactful Ministry

Elder Patrick’s online ministry has been nothing short of influential, encouraging, and a true blessing to my family. I am especially grateful for the way he has taken my 11-year-old son under his wings and poured into him through mentorship, encouragement, and the Word of God.

It means so much to see a man of God intentionally invest in the next generation. I am truly grateful for the ministerial work God has placed upon Elder Patrick’s heart and for his willingness to answer that calling.

Another blessing is that his ministry is online, making it accessible and convenient for those who may not have flexible schedules or the ability to attend in person. Through this platform, he is able to share God’s Word, encourage others, and impact lives across the United States.

Thank you, Elder Patrick, for being a positive influence and for pouring into my son. May God continue to strengthen, bless, and enlarge your ministry!

Jessica Jackson Ministry Member

Since Day One

I have witnessed and been a part of a ministry called Strong Man Ministry, which God elected Elder Patrick to lead, and I have been there since day one! His leadership skills, his knowledge of the Word of God, and his ability to lead men and women to the places God has assigned them are extraordinary. It stands out — you can see the light they have allowed to shine in them — and he makes sure God gets all the glory for everything they do in Christ Jesus, our Lord and Savior!

I esteem Elder Patrick and I support him in every way possible, that he will continue to go forth and allow God to use him to do great and mighty things for the kingdom of God!
