    Dr. Bill Curtis

    God led me out of law enforcement and into vocation ministry in 1989, and I’ve been a lead pastor of churches since 1994. I planted Cornerstone Church, where I currently serve, in 2002. In 2010, I co-founded The Pillar Network for Church Planting with my great friend and brother, Dr. Dwayne Milioni. Since 2002, Cornerstone has supported or sponsored 18 national and international church plants. Additionally, Cornerstone offers a church planting residency to train and send out planters. Academically, I’m a trained Rhetorician and Homiletician. Currently, I teach Homiletics adjunctively for Southeastern Seminary and the Liberty University School of Divinity. I have been married to Lyla for over 30 years, and I enjoy the families of my two daughters. I love sports, shooting, writing, and traveling.
