PASTOR OF GROUPS & FORMATION

sam@redeemindy.org

Sam loves helping people see how the good news of Jesus impacts everything about who we are and how we engage our world. As Pastor of Formation, Sam focuses on the big-picture vision for how we grow toward wholeness in the gospel. That includes overseeing formation ministries (from kids through adulthood), forming leaders, and supporting staff who work in formation.

Before coming to Redeemer in 2020, Sam served as a pastor near downtown St. Louis, where he and his family lived for ten years. Sam holds an M.Div. from Covenant Theological Seminary and also studied theology at Calvin College.

Sam and Katelyn have been married since 2010, live on the near east side, and have three amazing daughters. On any given day, you’re likely to find them riding bikes, exploring their neighborhood, eating good food, or singing along with The Clash.
