1 Corinthians 12:27
Our Lead Pastor

Stokes & Beth
Collins

Stokes and Beth Collins bring a shared calling and complementary leadership to their ministry and life together. In 2010, Stokes left the business world for vocational ministry, serving over the past decade in roles including assimilation pastor, associate campus pastor, executive pastor, and campus pastor — helping lead both established and newly launched churches. Together, they're currently launching a church in Southwest Florida.

Married for over 25 years with two adult daughters, Stokes and Beth share a deep passion for the health and formation of the Church. Beth brings a strong pastoral and prophetic sensitivity, while Stokes carries a strategic and teaching gift, and together they're especially committed to helping believers rediscover the value of New Testament prophecy and its role in the Church today. Their heart is to cultivate communities grounded in Scripture, attentive to the Spirit, and formed for faithful presence in everyday life.
