Pastor Chris attended a Christian university where he received a theological degree and minor in the Hebrew language in 1994.  It was there that he met his wife, Mindy, and they were married shortly after she graduated the following year in 1995.  Chris and Mindy have two children, Emily and Ian. 

In the past, Chris has worked in new home construction for a local company in Wausau.  In 2008, they moved to Stevens Point to be closer to family and to the church that they were very involved in at that time.  In 2013, Chris and his family began attending Community Church in Stevens Point.  They were drawn to begin attending because of the gospel-centered, expository preaching and to the congregation that was so genuine in their faith and love towards God and others.  Chris has always had a heart for ministry and being a shepherd of a local congregation. He and his family have always been engaged in ministry throughout their marriage. 

It is his desire to continue the strong tradition of solid biblical teaching that Community Church has always enjoyed, to engage with those in the church as we walk side-by-side together, and to continue to expand our evangelistic presence into our community through proclaiming the gospel of Christ and demonstrating His love through acts of service and kindness to others.
