We invite you to become acquainted with several of our Pastor’s publications.
On the tenth anniversary of his ministry at the Dyer Baptist Church at Plum Creek in Dyer, Indiana, Mrs. Barbara Medlen wrote Pastor Atkinson as follows: "As I read Micah 6:6-8, I thought of how beautifully it seemed to describe you - ‘to do justly and to love mercy.’ When I think about what makes you such a special Pastor...two words always seem to come to my mind: mercy and truth." "I so appreciate your preaching! It is balanced with mercy and truth. And your walk closely matches your talk. I believe part of the reason God has preserved your ministry is because of your balance...I greatly appreciate the care and time you take to open up a passage of Scripture to give it a fuller depth of meaning...You are the only Pastor our children have ever known...Our fifth-born was named with great care...as a tribute to you, our ‘beloved’ Pastor..."
Dr. Leroy Pennell of the Heritage Baptist Church of Barrie, Ontario wrote, "The two-part message you preached during the conference was a classic. I say that realizing that most of the messages I have heard you preach are classics."
