Leadership

Pastor Steve leads our pastoral team. He founded The Edge Church and Coffeehouse in 2012 and was instrumental in merging The Edge with Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in 2019. His passion for community and ministry are evident in the way his door is always open. His love for meeting with friends and strangers over a cup of coffee is surpassed only by his love for Jesus and family. He is married to Becky and they have three grown children.
