OUR PASTOR
In 2022, my wife Suzanne and I, along with a small team of friends, felt God’s clear call to plant a new church in the South Bay area of San Diego. We started with a simple vision: to bless the South Bay and see lives transformed by the power of Jesus. From day one, our heart has been to create a place where people from all walks of life can encounter God, build authentic community, and discover their purpose in His kingdom.
Today, All Peoples Church South Bay is a growing family — a place where faith feels real, relationships are genuine, and everyone has a part to play in God’s story. Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for years or are just starting to ask questions, my hope is that you’ll find what we’ve found: a God who meets you right where you are and leads you into a life more full than you ever imagined.
Hi, I’m Jonathan.
I grew up in Texas in a family that loved God but, like many, walked through its share of struggles and transformation. From a young age, I had a sense that God had something bigger for my life, but I didn’t always know what that meant. Over the years, God kept drawing me into a deeper relationship with Him — not just to believe in Him, but to follow Him wherever He led.
That journey eventually led me into ministry, first through serving, then pastoring, and later becoming part of a global family of churches called All Peoples. Through those experiences, I saw that the gospel doesn’t just change lives — it changes families, communities, and even nations.
