22ea8c16-bfe2-46b8-b8fe-8d6569ab6b39 Fishers of men: a disciple is committed to the mission of Jesus A fully-formed disciple of Jesus will live as Jesus lived: loving others as we love ourselves, caring for the marginalized, and sharing the good news of Jesus wherever we are. We do not have to quit our jobs and move to a foreign country to participate in the mission of Jesus. We do it right where we live and work and play. Each month on this page we will offer practical guidance on how to join Jesus in the work he is already doing in the lives of those around us.

GLOBAL MARK STEPHENS Tell me more about your mission? SportsLife Leadership brings together my three passions: faith, sports, and leadership. When Jesus is at the heart of sports, God can work wonders and miracles. Picture thousands of sports leaders with trained hearts, equipped hands, and mobilized feet, all dedicated to making a Kingdom impact. God is inviting us to lead and to infuse the sports world with abundant and eternal life. The best is yet to come! VISION To infuse life into the world of sports one leader at a time. MISSION To serve sports leaders with world-class, Christ-centered training, resources and programs. What are some victories I can celebrate with you? At the moment, I am coaching 11 international sports ministry leaders individually, who, in turn, lead a total of 70 leaders. This month, I will begin coaching 6 senior leaders from the athletic department of the world’s largest Christian university, overseeing more than 200 leaders. I am also in the process of creating several Bible reading plans on the YouVersion app. What are some of the challenges you face? One challenge we're facing is that, as of February 2025, we are six months old, and it's taken significant time to establish our back-office systems. We expect to have this fully set up by June. Our second challenge is navigating the many opportunities before us and making thoughtful, strategic decisions. How can I pray for you? Pray for wisdom in deciding which opportunities would be the most impactful. Pray as we develop curriculum to accomplish our mission. Pray for funding to fulfill the mission. How can I support you? You can support me by praying. Email me for our monthly newsletter that includes prayer items. You can also become a financial partner at: SportsLife Leadership - Stephens Fund Message me for other ways to support our work. Where can I learn more? I would love to meet with you one-on-one to share insights and answer any questions you might have.

KEN JACKSON Spiritual Formation Pastor I’m the Spiritual Formation Pastor here at Cedarbrook, but my favorite title is “Molly’s husband.” We have two sons, Peter and Daniel, two amazing daughters-in-law, Brittany and Courtney, and five grandchildren: Emma, Grace (who is now with Jesus), Camden, Eden, and Maya. We also have an overly friendly labradoodle named Tucker who thinks everyone is his best friend. I enjoy long hikes, scuba diving, and a good game of softball. Fun fact: I was actually the very first visitor on Cedarbrook’s opening Sunday, and the beautiful greeter who welcomed me that day later became my wife. Before ministry, I painted houses, worked in retail management for a grocery store chain, and eventually stepped into full-time ministry in my early 30s. I have been serving at Cedarbrook since 1992, and I still love it, especially getting to work alongside such incredible people. And if you ever want to win me over, bring me some Popeyes Fried Chicken. ken@cedarbrook.org

318e4389-4f90-404d-a772-6455d94d0f27 I will make you become: a disciple is being changed by Jesus Jesus wants to transform us so that we become the kind of people who genuinely love God and others from the core of our being. This change in our hearts goes way beyond what our willpower and good intentions can accomplish. But, it is also not something that God will do in us without our involvement. Each month we will provide video and print resources that look at a spiritual practice, experience, or relationship that can ground us in a lifestyle of openness to God and the work he is doing in us.

JOHN GIST Worship Pastor I’m the Worship Pastor here at Cedarbrook, and I’ve had the joy of serving in this role for the past 15 years. My wife, Sherra, and I have a full, lively house with five amazing kids— Ivey (17), Halle (15), Misha (8), Ollie (3), and Neva (1). Life is never boring, and we wouldn’t have it any other way. When I’m not leading worship, you’ll probably find me playing music (yes, I know it’s technically my job too), out on the golf course, experimenting in the kitchen, or just spending time with family and friends. And if you ever need a laugh, just ask me about the time I played Buddy the Elf in a musical/ballet. Don’t worry—there was no actual ballet involved, though I might have busted out the Running Man. I have a BS in Kinesiology from the University of Louisiana at Monroe, and I’ve been serving in ministry and pastoral leadership for 25 years. My favorite treat is sushi, but my favorite part of this job has nothing to do with food. It’s getting to be part of a team that’s passionate about lifting up the name of Jesus, and being in a room filled with our church family, all singing the same words and melody, is something I’ll never stop being in awe of. john@cedarbrook.org

MOLLIE RANDALL Women's Ministry Leader I’m the Women’s Ministry Leader, and I love creating spaces where women can connect, encourage one another, and grow in faith. One of my very favorite things is seeing God at work—watching women grow in faith and confidence in who He’s made them to be. I’ve been married to Andrew for over 20 years, and he’s my favorite teammate in life (and my go-to for tricky theology questions since he has a Master of Divinity!). We have two daughters, Vivia (14) and Ailyn (11)—and much of my time is joyfully spent coordinating their activities, even if my own to-do list sometimes takes a back seat. When I get a moment to myself, you’ll usually find me working out, reading (anything from fun fiction to books that stretch my thinking), or studying the Bible. I’m an extrovert at heart, so coffee dates and conversations with friends are my favorite way to recharge. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Information Technology from Virginia Tech and spent several years working in both IT and finance before shifting my focus to family and ministry. And when it comes to treats, nothing beats a warm chocolate chip cookie—or a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup.
