| Senior Pastor - Brad Banks |
![]() Just like Brad is a Midwesterner transplanted to the plains of Texas, he’s a parachurch youth worker transplanted into the pastorate of a brand new church.
After graduating Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, in 1995, Brad joined the staff of Young Life, an outreach ministry to unchurched high school kids where he served as both an intern and an Area Director. The call to serve in the context of the local church grew stronger and stronger to the point where God led Brad and his wife Bree to move from Vermilion, Ohio, to Texas in the fall of 2002 to attend Dallas Theological Seminary. He received his Master of Theology (Th.M) in 2005 as well as the H.A. Ironside Award in Expository Preaching. Brad and Bree live in McKinney with their one year old son Jamison. He loves books and football probably a little more than he should and the Lord certainly nowhere near as much as he would like. |
