Leadership

Born to a faithful Christian family, Garrett grew up in Northern California. His father was a pastor, and the rest of his family faithfully served the same church throughout his childhood. Although raised in a Christian home, Garrett was not born again until early high school. After high school, Garrett began bible school at Cornerstone Bible College and Seminary in Vallejo, CA. While attending bible school, Garrett married his high school sweetheart, Claire. As God's sovereign plan would have, Garrett and Claire moved to Phuket, Thailand, in 2019, where Garrett was the preaching Elder at an international church and Claire, being a licensed cosmetologist, led a vocational training program helping rescued, sex-trafficked women learn the business of cosmetology. In 2020, Garrett and Claire were blessed by God with their first little girl, Amelia. In 2022, God added to their number by giving them another daughter, Laylani. After serving the Lord in Thailand for almost six years, they felt it was time to return home to serve the people of Northern CA, so Shasta Reformed Church was planted in 2024. 
Garrett has a passion for preaching and teaching the Bible. In his preaching, you will find a deep concern for both Exegetical and Biblical Theology, the glory of God in all things, and the primacy of the Gospel in every text. Garrett longs to see individuals, families, and the church submit their entire lives to Christ by faith and live in bold and unwavering obedience to him.
