About Tony Mauck
Tony grew up on the banks of the Ohio River in southern Indiana in a little town called Floyds Knobs.

After receiving his AA degree at Florida College in the spring 1983 and an extra semester of biblical studies, Tony began preaching full-time for the Biltmore Gardens congregation in Indianapolis, IN in the spring of 1984.

Most of Tony’s preaching has been done in the state of Texas. In 1987 and 1988, he worked in the young preacher program of the Southside church of Christ in Pasadena, TX. He met his wife of 22 years, Sheri, while in Pasadena.

Shortly after their marriage, Tony and Sheri moved to Beaumont and worked 4 years with the Dowlen Road congregation. After a short two-year stint in Louisville, KY with the Gardiner Lane church, Tony and family began a 12-year work with the Eastside congregation in Baytown. Tony and Sheri have two children: Sheli (19) and Brett (16).

After three years in Auburn, AL with the University church of Christ, Tony moved back to Texas in May of 2009 to begin work with the Decker Prairie congregation on the northwest side of Houston. He also writes occasionally for Biblical Insights, a magazine edited by Wilson Adams.

Recording Bible Classes to allow outsiders to listen anonymously

In January 2009, Jeff Himmel and I recorded three Bible classes at Spring Warrior. The subject studied was 1 Thessalonians. For our purposes, the subject recorded was irrelevant. We simply wanted to share with people outside the church the ability to hear how we conduct our classes and study God’s word. We felt that this would give the listeners the ability to hear what we are about without the pressures associated with attending “cold.”

The classes used a workbooks authored by Robert Harkrider.

You can listen and share the recordings by clicking the links below:
