Eddie Beyer
Executive Pastor of Growth
A little about me
As an Executive Pastor of Discipleship, my passion lies in fostering environments where individuals can truly grow in their faith. I believe, just as Jesus primarily discipled his followers in close-knit groups, the power of transformation unfolds most effectively within small communities.
Throughout my experience, I’ve witnessed countless “light bulb moments” within these groups. People surrounded by supportive peers, engaging with scripture in new ways, and experiencing a deeper understanding of God’s word. These moments of personal revelation and growth are what truly motivate me in this role.
To foster an environment of spiritual growth within these groups I utilize the HEAR method of scripture journaling. Below you will find a more detailed explanation of this method.
