Nathan Mudd

Associate Pastor of Youth and Children
Nathan ranched with his dad for over a decade in Alaska, then completed a BS in Ministry Leadership and Preaching with Moody Bible Institute. He served as a pastor for 4 years with Village Missions and then took 5 years for an MDiv and ThM in Biblical Exegesis and Church planting at Bethlehem Seminary. He’s loved being a cowboy, farmer, boat captain, professional bear guide, fireman, business owner, builder, and meat processor. He loves to work hard and play hard.
 
Nathan and his wife Ann have four children who were ages 11, 9, 7, 5, in July 2023 when he began serving here as associate pastor of youth and children’s ministries. He definitely draws upon Ann's training as an elementary teacher in Kansas, Romania, and Alaska. 
 
Nathan is called by the Father to display the light of the gospel in Christ through/for all of life—to develop generations of worshipers who are discipled by Jesus together in the presence of the Holy Spirit.
