Steve Wood
Become Pastor
My Story - My life journey began in Florida and transitioned to Georgia where I grew up, married my high school sweetheart, graduated from college, and felt God’s call to a cross cultural ministry with Native Americans. Our adventure continued to take us through church planting, leadership training, pastoral and administrative ministries in South Dakota, North Dakota, Colorado, Nebraska, and now the great state of North Carolina. I love to hike, explore, fish, hunt, do photography, discover more about God and experience Him changing my life and others.

Linda Wood
Image Director
My Story - As a TCK (Third Culture Kid) growing up in Panama, I benefited from the great experiences of living in other countries, learning Spanish, traveling through Central America, and making friendships that last a lifetime. Steve & I have been blessed with two beautiful daughters, great son-in-laws, six grandsons and one granddaughter.....living closer would be much more fun. I love seeing them growing in their walk with God. Along with my professional career as a graphic designer and artist (pastels are my favorite medium), I love reading, photography, collecting stamps, shopping, and traveling (anywhere that requires taking a suitcase).

Heather Spruill
Triangle Kids Coach
My Story - I realized that the stuff in life that I was trying to make myself happy with was only making temporarily happy. It was then that God grabbed my attention and I decided to let Him take my life. Only a God of grace would be able to love someone as messed up as me, and still forgive me for the mess I'd made of my life, but HE did, and I'm forever grateful. It's still not easy, but it's nice to know that even on my worst days, God still loves me.
On my night stand - I don't really read much, as I'd much rather sleep than read when those few moments actually are here, so the books there have been there for a while :-) One is The Cross and The Sword (my big brother, Ben Rule, is the co-author so I figure I should probably finish this one eventually to see what he wrote!), and Just Courage by Gary Haugen, and Left to Tell by Immaculee Ilibagiza.
Super power I would like to have - I would like to be able to be in more than one place at a time. .. being able to fly to get there would be sweet too :-)
Best Movie I have seen since Memorial Day - I don't get to go to movies ever. .. 3 kids does that to you! The only movie I've seen since then is the new Alvin and the Chipmunks (blame it on the kids!). .. yep, I'm WAY behind!!
