Pastor Danny Slimp answered the call to the ministry in December 2006. Danny has been at Cornerstone since September 13, 2008. Danny married Tina Ferguson in 1980 and together they raised four boys. Danny & Tina now celebrate 12 grandchildren. Danny retired from law enforcement in 2008. Danny & Tina came from the north part of Wise County having lived in the Alvord / Sunset area several years. Danny & Tina attended Voice of Triumph Assembly of God in Sunset where they were active in the ministry there. Danny assisted with the song service while Tina was active in the children’s church ministry. It was during their work at Voice of Triump that God directed them to the ministry at Cornerstone Church. Both of them enjoy the ministry God has placed them in and believe that Cornerstone is going to continue to grow at the direction of God.
