Justin has served as the Lead Pastor of Midland Nazarene since 2021. Originally from Indiana, he’s pastored churches in California, Kentucky, and Kansas. Before stepping into full-time ministry, Justin served in the United States Air Force—an experience that deeply shaped his leadership and faith.

He holds a master’s degree from Asbury Theological Seminary and a doctoral degree from Olivet Nazarene University. He’s passionate about helping people experience the most amazing relationship with Jesus possible—especially those who’ve been wounded by the church and are looking for a fresh, grace-filled vision of faith.

Justin has been married to Heather for 30 years, and together they have four incredible kids. He loves to read, travel with his family, and (faithfully) root for the Chicago Cubs and Bears.
