Our Leadership
I work for the State of Arkansas as the Chief Workforce Officer. The first twenty years of my career, I spent teaching high school agriculture and industrial maintenance during the day in Siloam Springs, and working in industrial maintenance and refrigeration at night, for Frez-N-Stor in Springdale. Prior to my State appointment, I was the Senior Director of Maintenance and Refrigeration for Tyson Foods. Building skill sets and empowering people has been my passion for close to thirty years.
I began teaching Sunday School when I was sixteen years old, and preaching in my early twenties. I have been a bi-vocational pastor of three churches over the span of fifteen years. My bend is to take physical things that we can see and making spiritual applications easier to grasp. I love the way that the Lord has hidden His truths in plain sight.
Sandra and I have been married for close to thirty years, and we have five adult children: Ashley (Hunter), Melissa (Jared), Casey (Wes), Chate, and Jovus. We have been gifted with four grandchildren and a long runway for several more. I enjoy working outside, mechanical work, running equipment, training and riding horses, making knives, and sharing the Good News. The Lord is so faithful.

Cliff ByrdMy trade was in concrete in Oklahoma when God moved me to Arkansas. I was a building superintendent for Linsey Green commercial properties for 20 years. God has blessed me with a good lady (Gayla), two good kids that I'm very proud of. My wife helps me here at the church and in leading the singing. She is very active, and a fun person to be with. And of course, my kids are supplying me with great grandkids!
I had a couple of cowboys come up to me one day and say, “We'd like to start a church.” I was going to another church, but let them use the building. As time went on, the Lord led me to become a member here. I apologized to my pastor at the time, that we were starting a Cowboy Church without talking to him about it. He said, “Cliff, you don't need to apologize to me. The Lord impressed me to start a Cowboy Church and I didn't do it, so you did.” His daughter said, “Well, if God asked you to do something and you don't do it, he's going to find somebody that will!” I am proud to be one of the elders and look forward to the challenges ahead for Cowboy Church and all of the things that God is wanting us to do. |
Keith LoewerI'm a retired truck driver. I started out farming in East Arkansas and moved to Northwest Arkansas. I’ve been in the tractor business and truck driving and now I’m retired. My wife, Cindy, and I have seven children. She homeschooled all of them. None of them are in jai! They're all good, Christian kids.
I think it is important to start off my day reading in the Bible. He's in control of everything so, if I start out with Him things go a lot smoother. I am one of the Elders here. I do whatever needs to be done--the arena or security--whatever. I was always taught, for something to get done, you get it done and don't quit till you get it done. Don't ever stand around watching somebody else do something as long as you can help. |
Our History
Corner Post Cowboy Church began May 2010 under the direction of Pastor Tim Wallace with a group of about 20 people. The church was housed in a shop building owned by a church member. The church purchased property in 2015 for a new building with an auditorium to seat 275 people and classrooms and an arena for horse related outreach.
Continuing the call, Pastor John Hooser and the CPCC Elder board, have lead the church to the completion of the building. The first service at the new building was October 7, 2018. Plans are to have activities with horses that reach kids and families for Christ.
Activities in the arena not only provide fellowship, but stands as the primary place of outreach and connection to the cowboy community. CPCC organizes events for the cowboy community. At each event someone will ride into the arena horseback to share the gospel.
Corner Post Cowboy Church strive to meet the need for a culture that for many years was overlooked. CPCC provides a place where hard working people feel like they fit in, feel loved, accepted and encouraged in growing in a relationship with Christ.
