Our Church...

Sandy Cheney is the President of Inside Out Prison Ministries, Inc., an Oklahoma Corporation dedicated to bringing God's Word to inmates. In addition, Sandy serves as Pastor of Eternal Life Church and Director of Eternal Life Bible College.  Both of these ministries were founded as a direct result of the success of the Prison Ministries and the ensuring demand for education and discipleship.

Sandy has served in the Ministry as Sunday School Teacher, President of Women's prayer group, Children's Church Director, Singles Ministry Director and Drama Department Director.  She has been actively involved in the jail and prison ministry since 1987.  She became a licensed minister in 1989 through Beams of Light Tabernacle of Tulsa, Oklahoma. She graduated from New Cornerstone Bible College of Tulsa in 1992 and after completing her internship was ordained in 1993.  During her years in the ministry she has been a participant in many seminars and bible study courses.   

Sandy was saved when she was 9 years old in a Baptist Church in Neosho , Missouri .  At age sixteen she began attending a Pentecostal church with her grandmother in Turley , Oklahoma .  Though recognizing the power of organization in a denomination, she believes the Lord wants her to interact with all Christian groups to be another conduit for God in bringing His Word and Blessings to the inmates, the homeless, and the lost. Therefore, Sandy now describes herself as simply a Christian.

 Church Doctrine:

We believe that God is a triune God.  God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit.  Genesis 1:26a "Then God said 'Let us make man in Our image, according to Our Likeness.' "  We believe that we are saved by grace through faith (Eph. 2:8) only through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.  Jesus said "I am the the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through Me (John 14:6).  We believe in the "Full Gospel" from Genesis to Revelation.  We take the Word of God literally!
