Resume

"Let every man abide in the calling wherein he is called and his work will be as sacred as the work of the ministry. It is not what a man does that determines whether his work is sacred or secular, it is why he does it."

A.W. Tozer

Jeremy Irwin

About

My personal mission statement is that, I unapologetically pursue Jesus, living each day with honesty, contagious joy, courage, and compassion. I intentionally invest in those I love and embrace meaningful relationships to make an eternal impact. I have chosen to steward my life in a way that exposes and engages others with the love and message of Jesus. I am passionate about building & equipping people to become disciples of Jesus who will make disciples. I believe that the local church is key in transforming communities and lives for Jesus. I choose daily to surrender to the power and direction of the Holy Spirit in all things. I believe that God loves and desires to be in an intimate relationship with every person no matter who they are or what they have done.  I love helping people take steps along their faith journey in discovering more about Jesus and His plan for their lives. My calling is to Jesus, who has given me gifts and talents to serve his church. Ministry is deeply rooted in who I am, but it will always come after my own walk with Jesus, my ministry to my wife, and then to my family.
