Our Team
Jeff Murphy (Lead Pastor) - At the age of 19, Jeff lost his mom unexpectedly. He collided with the reality that "life is short" and wanted his time on earth to matter for something. Jeff spent several years influencing teenagers in the Columbus Valley region before getting involved in church planting in Atlanta. This summer, the Murphys settled back into Columbus to raise their family and establish a church that will change the way you think about church!

Married to... Laura Jamison May
Newlyweds 101... Laura and I got married on November 23, 2008. Since then we have learned: A sandwich is the best back-up plan for any burnt meal, the trash will never take itself out, toilet seat lids are best left down, and a bowl of popcorn with a game of cards is a great date!
Loves to... Play music, ride horses and four-wheelers, spend time with his amazing wife, and watch others have life changing encounters with a Living God through leading worship
