Disciples Heritage
In essentials, unity;
in non-essentials, liberty;
in all things, charity.
Not the only Christians,
but Christians only.

Music Director
Our Music Director since January 1996, Jerry Gideon and his three sisters and two brothers grew up on a farm outside Willard, Missouri. The family attended the Methodist Church. Jerry decided to follow Christ at age 16 when the preacher at a revival spoke about God’s love and acceptance and something in the message resonated with Jerry’s spirit. He eventually earned a degree in Music Performance from Southwest Missouri State and moved to California in 1969 to study with a professor from USC. Jerry is an active member of Holy Spirit Fellowship, but he is appreciative of the loving and joyful group of people we have at North Long Beach Christian Church.
