Beth Anderson

Family Pastor

Read Bio

Beth joined our staff in 2007 as Student Minister. She graduated from Averett University in Danville, VA with a religion degree after sensing God’s call to ministry as a teenager.

She has a heart for students and young adults, and longs to see them grow in their relationship with the Lord and then use their gifts to share His love with others. Her years of various ministry experiences have taught her that God faithfully shows up when you step up in obedience, and out in faith.

Born and raised in Virginia Beach, she and her husband Ryan love beach days, finding new Mexican restaurants, scuba diving, and serving the Kingdom together.
