With Pastor Mark, it’s all about Jesus! He is a spiritual leader, prolific author, and compelling speaker, but at his core, he is a family man – a husband, father, and grandfather. Mark and his wife Grace have been married and doing vocational ministry together since 1993 and, along with their five kids, planted Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Arizona as a family ministry.

Pastor Mark, Grace, and their oldest daughter, Ashley, also started RealFaith Ministries, which contains a mountain of Bible teaching for men, women, couples, parents, pastors, leaders, Spanish speakers, and more (realfaith.com or the Real Faith app).

With a master’s degree in exegetical theology from Western Seminary in Portland, Oregon, he has spent the better part of his life teaching verse by verse through books of the Bible, contextualizing their timeless truths and never shying away from challenging, convicting passages that speak to the heart of current cultural dilemmas.
