It is my hope that this blog will be an encouragement to those that read it, and that it will provide an opportunity for further discussion on various topics, all with the purpose of apply God’s truth to our every day lives.
A little bit about myself
I am pastor at River’s Edge Christian Church in Vernon Center, MN.
I was a youth pastor for 9 years in Saint Paul, MN and I am a graduate of Northwestern College in Roseville, MN with a BA in Youth Ministry and an MA Theological Studies. I was ordained in Converge (BGC) in January of 2011.
I have been married to my lovely wife Charmaine since 2004, and we have two beautiful little girls. Charmaine is an awesome graphic designer, and created the banner on the homepage.
I am available to speak to youth or adult groups, including retreats, special events, or small groups. Feel free to contact me by email and I will get in touch with you.
God bless,
Bart Whitman
