Pastoral Staff
PASTOR mark johnson
Pastor Mark and his wife, Roxanne, came to Christ Community in July of 2022. He received his M.Div. from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky, and his B.A. in History from Indiana University. Before serving as Christ Community’s lead pastor, Mark was on staff with Cru (formerly Campus Crusade for Christ) for 15 years, mostly at IU. The Lord has instilled three particular passions in Mark over the years. First, Mark loves to see believers equipped to read, understand, and apply the Scriptures. Second, he longs for Christians to actively disciple others and pass on what the Lord has entrusted to them. Third, he has a heart for seeing the entire church develop an understanding, urgency, and love for bringing the gospel to the most unreached people groups of the world. Mark and Rox are blessed with three beautiful daughters - Kyla, Eden, and Selah.
