Kevin is the founding and senior pastor of Crossroads. He was born and raised in Southern California and graduated from UCLA. After three years as an engineer, God called him to attend seminary at Biola University. After graduation, he served as a pastor in the San Francisco Bay Area for three years. Kevin and his wife, Theresa, sensed God calling them back to Orange County to start a new church. In 1998, he planted Crossroads with a small group of friends. Kevin and Theresa have been married for more than 34 years and have three children.

My role supports Crossroads’ mission of “reaching out, bringing in, building up” by organizing outreach events, fostering a safe and welcoming environment for children and families, and providing Christ-centered Bible lessons and service opportunities for children, youth, and adults.

I’ve seen children grow with an eagerness to learn about God and His love for them through engaging Bible lessons taught by dedicated, loving, and compassionate teachers. As the children move on to ASM (youth group)  and beyond, I’ve seen a large number of them develop a servant’s heart and use their God-given gifts to serve Him in Discoveryland and various other ministries at Crossroads.

I help cultivate a space and a time for the youth to see how God makes everything in their life matter. Together with an amazing group of volunteers, we get to do worship, games, and discuss the hard questions in life such as ‘why does God only save some people?’ or ‘what is the proper sequencing of a turn in the Pokemon TCG?’
 
I also get to focus on developing and supporting our worship teams, fostering our church’s heart of worship, and making fun music every Sunday.

I create and care for spaces where people can feel at home, welcomed, comfortable, and happy. I also get to focus on developing and supporting our worship teams, fostering our church’s heart of worship, and making fun music every Sunday.

I was initially drawn to Crossroads because of the people and the sense of community. I have felt very cared for and loved by the people at Crossroads, which in turn helps me to care for and love others, too.

I provide pastoral care and support to ministry leaders as they teach and help others to practice the things Jesus taught us to do. I also help to focus our gatherings on the worship of Christ and the study and obedience of his Word. I love to help us learn to interact with and share Jesus in everyday life, especially in our relational networks (work, school, family, etc.). Much of this happens through relaxed conversations over a meal or coffee!

As a Co-director of Discoveryland, I am so honored and privileged to help create a safe, nurturing, and loving Christ-centered learning environment for children and their families, while also supporting our incredible volunteers. Our mission is to partner with the families in laying a foundation of spiritual truth, so that each child will know he/she is treasured and, in God’s timing, becomes a lifelong follower of Jesus Christ, and grows to know, love, and serve Him.  I feel the Lord has given me a passion and love for planting the seeds of His Truth, love, and grace in the hearts, minds, and souls of each child who enters our doors.

It has been a joy to witness God’s hand at work from the day we started Crossroads and see it continue to this day.  His love and care for, and through, the people of Crossroads have been life-giving, refreshing, and inspiring.  I truly love our church family; we have some of the best people!

As an administrative assistant, I work behind the scenes and take care of the details behind the scenes that support the ministries and mission of Crossroads.
I also get to focus on developing and supporting our worship teams, fostering our church’s heart of worship, and making fun music every Sunday.

I help publicize all the wonderful ministries, services, events, and serving opportunities at the church through email, website, mobile app, and social media.

The very first Crossroads Community Church gatherings were held in my living room.
