Meet Your Presenter...
Hi! My name is Chris Colvin. For over 25 years, God has used me in different ministries at diverse churches all over the country. I’ve served in Children’s Ministry, as a Youth Pastor, leading Young Adults, and even helping out Seniors. I’ve been in small churches and large, in rural settings and in cities. I’ve been behind the scenes and out front on stage as well.
Over the last ten years, God has given me a new assignment. I now have the great pleasure of coming alongside pastors to help them with their sermons. From sermon prep research to fine tuning their messages and everywhere in between, each week I assist pastors of strong, growing congregations to reach thousands of Christ followers with their messages.
And now, I get to share some of what I’ve learned with you! I can’t wait to show you how God has shaped my life and ministry, because I know he’ll do the same for you.
