Andrew is an Iowa born and raised worship pastor with a passion for the Gospel. He married his wonderful wife, Morgan, in 2020 and they enjoy being active and outdoors with their dog, Jackson. Andrew is in love with Jesus, and more than anything, he wants to know Him and make Him known to others. Vocationally, Andrew lines up with the Apostle Paul’s plan to spread and sustain the Gospel, reach the lost, make disciples, equip the saints, build the church, send people and repeat. Andrew is passionate about art in the church and desires to see the church edified.
Music has always been a part of Andrew’s life. It ranges back to climbing on a piano bench at age two, leading worship at a large multi-site church in high school and beginning to play with professional musicians at age twenty. He has been blessed with wonderful teachers and musical mentors, along with an ear to hear beyond sheet music. He is proficient in seven instruments along with a smooth tenor vocal presentation. On top of that, Andrew brings songwriting, recording studio and production techniques to the table. Some of the highlights of Andrew’s career include being a multi-year high school All-State vocalist, playing with many fantastic musicians throughout the years, and being able to participate in the Advanced Band at Arizona Christian University, a touring band that played often in many different settings around the southwest.
Currently, beyond his work inside Mission Grove Church, Andrew serves as a contracted musician, produces music with his label Fully Known Productions and also continues to write and lead with his band, Garden Co.
