Trevor Meeks
Former Student Ministry Resident
“The residency has been life changing for me. I have learned so much about myself, who I am in Christ, who I am as a pastor, and who I am as a leader.”
Ciara McKinney
Former Student Ministry Resident
“The residency not only trains you to be a greater pastor, but a greater friend, a greater spouse, and ultimately a greater believer.”
Jordan Bearden
Former Worship Resident
“I’ve learned more about God’s faithfulness and love in the past year than I’ve ever known was possible. Leading for my ministry this past year has been an honor and a privilege. I never knew I had the capacity for leadership that I have now.”
