Steve Taylor: [email protected] Jana Taylor: [email protected]
Started attending CFA: 1998
Joined CFA staff: 2000
Became Senior Pastor: 2017
Family: Married Jana who is a pre-school teacher July 11, 2003 and was blessed with 2 daughters, Samantha (born February 2010) and Julianna (born August 2011).
Saved: as a child and rededicated his life at the age of 22
Education: attended Texas Tech University and is currently enrolled at North Texas District (AG) School of Ministry.
Steve grew up in a christian home and gave his life to God at a very young age. At the age of 22 he rededicated his life and has been pursuing God ever since then. He has worked in many different ministries within the church before becoming our senior pastor, such as children's church and sound/video. Steve also served as our youth pastor for 10 1/2 years before becoming our senior pastor. He is now persuing his certification with the Assemblies of God with the intent of becoming ordained.
We now have this light shining in our hearts, but we ourselves are like fragile clay jars containing this great treasure. This makes it clear that our great power is from God, not from ourselves.
We are pressed on every side by troubles, but we are not crushed. We are perplexed, but not driven to despair. We are hunted down, but never abandoned by God. We get knocked down, but we are not destroyed. Through suffering, our bodies continue to share in the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus may also be seen in our bodies.
2 Corinthians 4:8-10
