Chris Promersberger serves as the Lead Teaching Pastor. He holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Pastoral Studies and Biblical Languages and a Master of Divinity degree from Pensacola Theological Seminary. He is continuing his education by taking doctoral classes at MidWestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Chris has served as a youth pastor, teaching elder, and church planter. God’s grace energizes Chris to lead and train others to have a passion about the person of Jesus and His cross that they might follow Him with their lives. While he loves drinking coffee, it is always better over a conversation with others. He is very eclectic and seasonal in his hobbies, but you most likely will catch him studying the Bible, reading a book, working out, or spending time with his family. He is married to Lisa and they have three girls: Victoria Michelle, Elianna Joele, and Selah Joy. Victoria awaits their arrival in heaven.
