In this week's episode of The About Her Podcast, I chatted with Jordan Brown. Jordan is the lead pastor of Hebron Church of Hope in Hebron, Connecticut. A church that first gathered in October of 1716.
Jordan is a graduate of Cedarville University located in Cedarville, Ohio. It was during his time at Cedarville that my husband and I met Jordan, and his now wife, Rachel. Jordan and his wife served in the youth ministry at our local church, and both Jordan and Rachel quickly stepped in to mentor young High School Caleb and Abigail. After graduating from Cedarville, Jordan returned to Connecticut to serve in pastoral ministry and has since graduated with his MTS in Church Revitalization from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Jordan and Rachel were married in 2014 and together they have one daughter, Maeve Elisabeth.
Jordan’s favorite passage of Scripture is Hebrews 4:14-16. This passage states, "Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need."
As Jordan and I chat, you will quickly recognize just how much he desires to faithfully communicate the message of the Bible, to see dying churches come to life in the Gospel, and to see more and more people come to know Jesus Christ. I am grateful to have the opportunity to share Jordan’s love for the Gospel, the Word of God, Theology and Church History with you today. Now, let’s chat with Pastor Jordan Brown about the importance of Church history in the lives of everyday women.
