Brian G. Hedges | Elder | Lead Pastor
brianghedges@fulkersonpark.com
Brian rejoices that he is at peace with God, having been justified by faith in Jesus Christ. He has been married to Holly since 1996 and together they have three children – Stephen, Matthew, and Susannah. Brian has been preaching for over fifteen years and began serving as Lead Pastor at Fulkerson Park in 2003. Some of his primary influences include Tim Keller, C. S. Lewis, John Piper, and Martyn Lloyd-Jones, as well as the “great Johns of the faith” – Calvin, Owen, Bunyan, and Edwards. He has a passion for building the church on the gospel, preaching expositionally through Scripture, and developing future leaders. Brian has also authored two books, Christ Formed in You: The Power of the Gospel for Personal Change, (Shepherd Press, 2010) and Licensed to Kill: A Field Manual for Mortifying Sin (Cruciform Press, 2011). For fun, Brian enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing golf, reading great literature, and watching good movies.
Jared Hendrickson | Worship Leader

Jared made a profession of faith when he was seven years old, but the real wrestling with fear and trembling began in college. At age twenty, after two years of deep purging, he was soundly converted to Christ. Jared is married to Loni and has four children – Josiah, Aylwin, Jedidiah, and Aliyah. He has been involved at Fulkerson Park since 2007 and joined the staff as worship leader in 2008. He is also an Apple Certified Support Professional and enjoys lots of things in small measures – a bit of golf, a bit of motorcycling, a bit of woodworking, etc. But he especially enjoys soaking up time with his wife and kids.
