Todd Harold Hilkemann

 

"Pastor Todd"

 

I grew up in a Christian home in Omaha, Nebraska.  During those early years, my Christian life and worldview was largely shaped through a local Presbyterian church.  While there I learned to love the Lord, to participate in the life of the local church, and to cherish reformed theology.

 

I attended college at Wheaton College in Wheaton, IL.  During my three plus years a Wheaton I began to understand the true nature of Christian community through living on campus and developing some life-long friendships.  I also developed a deeper love for studying God’s word and the academic study of the Bible and theology.

 

After college I spent time as a teacher, and youth pastor.  In 2002 I married Jennifer who is the love of my life and my treasured partner.  In early 2003 we traveled to Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary where I received a Masters of Divinity with an emphasis on preaching and missions.  In January of 2006 we welcomed Isaiah Robert into the world as the third member of our family.
