Pastor Austin Glines joined our church family on December 22, 2024, bringing with him a passion for building community and a deep love for Jesus. Austin believes that the church is more than just a building or an event; it's a living, breathing community centered on experiencing the fullness of life in Christ.

​

Austin's journey into ministry began with his studies at Highlands College, where he received a certificate in Advanced Ministry Leadership in 2020. He furthered his education at Southeastern University, graduating with a Bachelor's in Ministry Leadership with a focus in Biblical Studies in 2022.

​

Austin's wife, Ashley, shares his passion for ministry. Ashley also graduated from Highlands College in 2022 with a certificate in Advanced Ministry Leadership and from Southeastern University in 2022 with a Bachelor's in Ministry Leadership, focusing on Pastoral Counseling. Since 2020, Austin and Ashley (married October 24, 2020) have served in various ministry roles across the country, impacting communities from Fort Walton Beach, Florida to Pryor, Oklahoma.

​

Together, Austin and Ashley are passionate about combating the growing division and loneliness in our world. They believe that the church, united in Christ, is the answer. Their ministry focuses on bringing people together and demonstrating that Jesus is enough to overcome any division. Austin and Ashley welcomed their first child, Mollie James, on July 26, 2023.
