MEET THE TEAM

Jesse and Rebecca had very different beginnings, Jesse as a military kid and United States Marine, and Rebecca as a missionary kid and singer/songwriter.  Now the Lord is using them and their stories individually and as a couple to lead others to Jesus. In the past they have served children, youth, and adults.  

Jesse has been involved in everything from media teams and set-up/tear down to leading men and family groups.  Folks love that he is approachable and kind, and he challenges them to grow as disciples of Jesus and as leaders in their community.  

Rebecca is a gifted worship leader, something she has been involved with since she was a child; she loves to teach others that worship is a lifestyle that affects everyone in our sphere of influence.  

Both of our pastors are anointed speakers, and feel humbled that the Holy Spirit would choose to use them to serve in His church.

Jessica and Hunter are an extraordinary couple whose lives intertwine faith, academia, love for others, and the local church. Hunter is a certified life coach who brings a unique blend of empathy and guidance to those seeking personal growth and transformation. His expertise lies in empowering individuals to unlock their full potential and navigate life's challenges with resilience and purpose.

Meanwhile, Jessica, a charismatic academic, has an unwavering zeal for delving into the historical context of the Bible. Her educational pursuits led her to attain a Bachelor of Science in Biblical Studies and Theology and a communications minor from Regent University. Currently serving as a chaplain for a global tech company, Jessica is driven to further her academic endeavors by pursuing a Master of Divinity from Regent University.

Together, Jessica and Hunter form a dynamic duo, with their ministry background including two years of Bible college, licensing and ordination from Destiny Ministries, church planter twice over, church staff for several years, executive pastor, and both have held many other ministry titles and roles. Jessica and Hunter are currently going through the licensing process with Foursquare and are excited to see what God unfolds through the local church!

Amidst their sincere dedication to spreading the gospel's hope, Jessica and Hunter find their most cherished roles as devoted parents to their three remarkable children: Jack, Lilli, and Judah!

Just an ordinary dude.  Firefighter. Pastor Jesse's buddy. Pinewood Derby runner up, 1990.  Pretty much sums it up.
