Ben grew up on the Palouse, and grew deeply in his faith as a student in a local youth ministry. While serving in the local church and parachurch ministries, Ben felt called to pursue Youth Ministry vocationally, and in 2018 received a degree in Christian Studies with an emphasis in Youth Ministry from Grand Canyon University. Although Ben has served on church staff in worship ministry and children’s ministry roles, youth ministry is his favorite place to be! Ben’s heart is to see students grow deeply in their faith, and each generation experience how amazing Jesus is. He and his wife Dani live in Colfax, and have four children- Jordan, Teddy, Harmony, and Zeke. Ben has been the Youth Pastor at EBC since September, 2022.
