Miller Avenue Church

We are your "Church for Those without a Church"! Small but mightily engaged for His Kingdom in an array of ministries, including preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ to unbelievers and teaching the Scriptures to believers! Our worship is easy liturgical, and our theology is evangelical and reformed, aligned with both American and Southern Baptists. Our home church is located in the quiet suburban town of Mill Valley, near the Golden Gate Bridge to San Francisco. Our surroundings are a real mission field, since our county has a tiny Christian minority, leaning more toward American style Eastern religion and toward contemporary occultism. Find out more at milleravenuechurch.org. Join us for an array of offerings . . . Video Shows: Watch "The Bible Study," "Why We Are Christians," "The Shaman and the Pastor," "The Rabbi and the Pastor," "The Imam and the Pastor," "Classes on Deliverance Ministry," "Christian Basics," Virtual Communion, and more. Live Streaming and Zoomed events: Join our live streamed worship services, classes, support groups, and meetings. We are light on hoopla and heavy on gospel! We are homey and welcome all who claim Jesus as Lord to worship with us. Visit us, even if you are just curious. We also offer Bible Studies, a Divorce Recovery Workshop, and a Cult Recovery Support Group via Zoom (coming in early 2021). Podcasts: Listen to The Bible Study and an assortment of sermons and classes on many of the popular podcasting platforms. Our Senior Pastor since 1984 is Kent Philpott, MDiv, DMin. He is well-known for his years of street preaching in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco and deliverance ministry during the late 1960s into the 1970s, an era dubbed The Jesus People Movement. He was the first senior pastor of Church of the Open Door in San Rafael, CA, and also ran the Christian Counseling Center there, starting Love in Action, a ministry to Christian homosexuals seeking to leave that lifestyle. Kent is a prolific author, writing on subjects such as basic Christian theology, true and false conversion, demonology and deliverance ministry, the dangers of The New Apostolic Reformation, understanding and confronting Islam, the biblical perspective on homosexuality and transgenderism, the connections between the occult, shamanistic religion, and modern extremes in Pentecostalism, his personal memoir, and help for pastors, among others. Also in the pulpit are son, Vernon, and wife, Katie. They are joined by several others who contribute their biblical study and insights during the year. Sermons and Bible expositions from all of these preachers and teachers are recorded for your watching or listening pleasure.
