We have to admit that it is a little uncomfortable to make a page all about ourselves. We don't know that it really matters what college we graduated from or what flavor pizza we like. What does matter is that everyone on staff loves God, loves this church, loves you and loves each other. We spend a great deal of time together just having fun and eating (especially the eating part).

So rather than tell you too much about us on our website, we would rather get together with you and get to know you as well.

However, we do want you to know who to contact when you are ready to get involved here at FCC and a little about what drives each of us. To that end, we have included a small amount of information about what each of us oversees, a favorite quote and some ways to stay in contact with us below. We look forward to hearing from you and becoming a part of your family as you become a part of ours.

Brian Gorman

Lead Minister

Brian oversees the main teaching of the church along with helping to determine the church's vision and direction. If you are interested in helping with adults studies or major service projects then Brian is the person to contact.

Driving Quote

The first one explains the way I see scripture; "The worship of reason is arrogance and betrays a lack of intelligence. The rejection of reason is cowardice and betrays a lack of faith." Abraham Joshua Heschel

this one I often use as my prayer, "Never once in my life did I ask God for success or wisdom or power or fame. I asked for wonder, and He gave it to me." also by Abraham Joshua Heschel

Keep up with Brian on or his personal WEB PAGE.

Brian Henry

Minister of Pastoral Care

If you need a Pastoral visit, are interested in our Missionary Outreach, getting involved in Men's or Women's Ministries, the CARS Ministry Team or serving through our Building and Grounds Team, this is the Brian to see. Or, if you are interested in Goldwing motorcycles, car shows or seeing pictures of his grandkids, he would love to meet you!

Jeff Bush

Worship Minister

If it involves the adults on Sunday morning, then it probably falls under Jeff. From sound, lights and music, to serving communion and greeters at the front door; it is all Jeff. If you are interested in helping in any of those areas, or talking about Star Wars, then please contact him.

Driving Quote

"Failure to worship consigns us to a life of spasms and jerks, at the mercy of every advertisement, every seduction, every siren. Without worship we live manipulated and manipulating lives. We move in either frightened panic or deluded lethargy as we are in turn alarmed by specters and soothed by placebos. If there is no center, there is no circumference. People who do not worship are swept into a vast restlessness epidemic in the world, with no steady direction and no sustaining purpose." Eugene Peterson.

"Powerpoint is boring." Dwight Schrute

Keep up with Jeff on

Heather Johnson

Children's Minister

Looking for information about children’s programs at FCC? Where do your kids go? What do they do in their classrooms? Who are the teachers? What should your child bring with them to class? Contact Heather, she would love to fill you in on the happenings of The Wave Children’s Ministry here at FCC and how your family can get connected to this amazing church family!

JR Horn

Student Minister

 

Anything that relates to our students in 5th-12 Grade falls under JR. He also oversees our young adult activities. On top of that, he is heavily involved with a lot of our community service projects and compassion/justice opportunities.

If you are looking to get involved with helping others in our church, working with teens or serving our community, or you just want to talk about Harley-Davidsons, then get a hold of JR.

"The God who created, names and numbers the stars in the heavens also numbers the stars of my head. He pays attention to very big things and to very small ones. What matters to me matters to Him, and that changes my life." Elisabeth Elliot

 

Connie Jacob

Communications Director

If you can see it then it has crossed over Connie's desk. She oversees a great deal of our video work, keeps the website up to date, designs our print and visual media products and coordinates marketing.

"I keep my ideals, because in spite of everything I still believe that people are really good at heart." Anne Frank

"Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind." Dr. Seuss

 

Bob Meadows

Production Manager

Bob keeps things running smoothly. He handles most of our ongoing purchases as well. Bob handles the scheduling of the musicians, lighting, audio & media team for all of our services, along with stage set up and whatever is needed to ensure that everything happens on Sunday morning like it should.

Driving Quote

"Don't worry 'bout the mules going blind, just load the wagon." My dad, when I complained about picking up rocks in the fields down home in Alabama

"Get 'er done!" Larry the Cable Guy

 

Mark Beyer

Facilities Care

It wouldn't be right to say "janitor", "custodian" or "maintenance" with the way that Mark does his job. He cares for our facilities as a ministry, which is obvious in both the quality of work that he does and the attitude he does it with.

 

 

 

 

Elders

 

These guys are the bosses. They are the main overseeing board for the church who are responsible for major directional decisions and keeping track of Brian. They also oversee the finance team and work to keep their finger on the pulse of what our church needs and what God has called us to do.
