Nathan is a Midwestern boy turned Californian. He came to San Diego in 2004 for work, met a girl, got married, and hasn’t looked back. He’s also still working at the same job that brought him here almost 20 years ago. 

Nathan attended Bethel Seminary San Diego and received his Master’s of Divinity in 2011. He knows that Church hasn’t always been a welcoming and safe place for many people. Church people often distort the Jesus from the Bible to fit their agenda, and that has hurt people and hurt relationships. Nathan is excited to be Salt Church’s Community Pastor to help people grow together and grow closer to the Jesus that he knows (and is still learning from and learning about).

Nathan and his wife Erika have been married since 2006 and have three amazing children together. They have been living in La Mesa since 2010.
