Listen to Sermon

Throughout the Bible, God uses doorways and gates to show His powerful sovereignty and eternal plan through Jesus. Doors are a representation of invitation, safety, comfort, and shelter. In John 10, Jesus captures these truths in a powerful take down of the failed leadership of their time and beautifully illustrates HIs Deity using an I AM figure of speech that defines what a good shepherd does. He is the Door of the sheepfold and He lays down His life for His sheep. Let’s explore together these spiritual connections together!

beto huamani

I joined the Madison family in January of 2016. I started my career serving the Lord in 2000 in Lima, Peru, at the Lucyana Iglesia de Cristo, where I preached until 2007. On a medical mission trip, I met my wife, Emily, in Lima. We were married in Nashville, TN, in 2007. Since then, I have been working to help reach out to the Hispanic population as an ESL coordinator and Hispanic minister in Nashville, TN, Franklin, TN, and Peoria, IL.

I have a degree in Arts Education and am working on a Masters in Ministry. I have gained a great deal of experience with his field work in ministry and receive a lot of support and help from my wife. Emily and I are Alabama football fans (Roll Tide!), Kentucky basketball fans (Go Big Blue!), and Peru soccer/futbol (Arriba, Perú!). I like to travel, play music, and read. Emily and I are very blessed to be a part of the Iglesia and church family at Madison.

youth minister

richard turner

After growing up as an army brat, my family moved to east Tennessee where I graduated high school. Afterwards, I went to Freed-Hardeman University and graduated in 2017. The following year, I was able to marry my wife, Sarah, and begin work alongside the Madison church as a youth minister. A few years later, I began work on a Masters of Divinity as well. My favorite hobbies include reading, golf, traveling, ping pong, and finding unique places to eat. In 2022 we welcomed our first child, Eliza, and in 2024 our second child, Finn. Our family loves being part of a church family where we can be one small part of a group working to grow the kingdom of God.
