John served for 27 years as teaching pastor at Open Door
Fellowship in Phoenix, Arizona. The authenticity, longevity, and
playfulness of these two communities, Trueface and Open Door, bring
real-world reality and potency to the message of Trueface. John
used his love for theater as a playwright and actor in Sharkey
Productions, a troupe focused on gospel-anchored theater
productions for those still seeking Jesus.
John and his wife Stacey often create inviting environments on
their backyard patio and elsewhere for people to enjoy authentic
community. They are passionate parents to their three children,
Caleb married to Kali, with granddaughters Maci and Payton; Amy
married to Cody, with grandson Ridge; and Carly.
