    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 married daughters. I love sports, shooting, writing, and traveling.

      Dr. Dwayne Milioni

      God changed my heart from pursuing medical school toward pastoral ministry in 1988. After two Master's degrees and a Ph.D. in Preaching, I became the Lead Pastor of Open Door Church in Raleigh, NC in 1999. Since then, Open Door has sent over a hundred church planters and international workers. I co-founded The Pillar Network for Church Planting and serve as the Board Chair for this growing, global community of like-minded Baptist churches. I also serve as Associate Professor of Preaching and Director of the Ph.D. in Preaching at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. I am so blessed to be married to Kay for over 30 years and enjoy the families of our four married children. I love sports, cooking, and traveling.
