Glad to meet you!  I’m Andy DeGuire, discipleship pastor at Living Truth.  A disciple is a follower of someone else or his or her teachings.  So, my ministry is focused on developing and strengthening our environments, systems, and leaders so that guests and members can become more committed followers of Jesus Christ, our Lord.  I, myself, have been a follower of Jesus now for 20 years,and I have a passion to help people grow towards maturity in Christ.

More than just biblical encyclopedias, I dream of our people being living, flesh & blood truth wherever they go!  I graduated from Southwestern Seminary in December 2000.  I have been on staff at Living Truth since June 2006 but have been doing ministry since 1993.  I am married to Heidi , and we have four beautiful children: Joey; Danny, Johnny, and Abby.
 

I’m Jeff Cranford, worship leader at LTC. I was born in Milton, Florida and have lived here all of my life. I currently attend UWF and am majoring in Building Construction Engineering. After I finish there, I plan on going to seminary but I'm not sure when or where. I have been leading worship ever since I was 15 years old but just recently, I answered a call into the ministry. Since then, God has been creating opportunities and opening doors for me to use the gifts he has blessed me with. I love playing guitar and going wakeboarding in my spare time.

I’ve been the secretary here at LTC since October 2005, and I truly love what I do. Not only is it lots of fun, but it gives me the opportunity to see daily what God is doing in and through our church. From our kooky staff meetings filled with cheesy humor to the last minute projects we’re so famous for, I am thankful for a great job.

I am married to Joel and we have two beautiful daughters, Cielee and Lily. I graduated from UWF with a degree in Organizational Communication, but I’ll always be an LSU Tiger fan and have even managed to transform Joel into one as well! I enjoy breaking bones while playing softball, reading, and hanging out while Joel cooks gourmet meals.
 

My name is Jared and I was born and raised in Milton,Florida. I was born on June 29, 1986 and I gave my life to Christ in April of 2007. I am currently serving as the leader for the Men's Ministry at LTC, Band of Brothers. I also lead a small group bible study on Sunday nights. I recently married my high school sweetheart Tamara Ballard, on Oct. 18, 2008. She is an extraordinary Christian woman and the Lord has truly blessed me. I also serve as some what of an athletic director for LTC by organizing various church wide sport activities.  

Hey there! I'm Tamara Owens and I lead an extraordinary group of women here at LTC, the Soul Sisters! Women's ministry is a new journey in my life, and it is one that I am so humbled and honored to walk down. I believe that God created fellowship and ministry for a divine purpose - to bring us closer to Him. For this reason, the Soul Sisters strive to connect women to Jesus Christ and to one another. We know that every woman is accepted, secure, and significant in Christ. A little about me - I accepted Jesus as Lord in 2004, I'm married to an amazing man (Jared), and my daytime mission field is a KG classroom where I love on special needs children. I love the Lord, and I want to spend the rest of my life bringing glory to His name!

I was born in St Martinville, LA, graduated from Northside High School in Lafayette, LA and attended the University of Southwestern Louisiana (Ragin Cajun’s).  I surrendered to the ministry in 1969 and worked with Bob Harrington, the Chaplain of Bourbon Street for almost a year, I then returned to my home town and started a Christian Coffeehouse Ministry called The Mustard Seed.  In 1971 my wife and I moved to Seattle, WA and started ministering with the Jesus People movement there.  In 1986, I started a street outreach ministry in conjunction with the Union Gospel Mission.  The ministry was called The Fishermen’s Club, we did street outreach and evangelism to the homeless, runaways, drug addicts and gang members on the streets of Seattle.  In 2002, I retired from my full-time job with King County Dept. of Public Works and relocated to Milton, FL.  Our Pastor was one of the first people we met here and we fell in love with the ministry of Living Truth Church and the community.  I am currently serving as Outreach Servant leader, in addition we host a CPR class (we call our class the “Misfits”, because we don’t fit anywhere else.  We jokingly say that we are one big blended family in our group, not the Brady’s or the Cleaver’s, more like the Addam’s Family) in our home.  We feel the most comfortable when at Fairs and other outreach events with the God Mobile. 
 

Joel Dean Hollon serves as our Worship Arts Coordinator. Half-asian, half-robot, and half-crazy, Joel is the right guy to handle the technical aspects of our Sunday services and community events. It's his responsibility to foster growth in the worship arts within individuals--and within our church body.

To say that Joel is a little on the geeky side would be an understatement. If nerdy were a puddle, you would find him in it face-down and blowing bubbles. Needless to say, this qualifies him to also serve as our church's IT advisor as well. His hobbies in life include cooking, playing video games, eating bacon, pitching (not belly-itching), and pretending he's MacGyver.
