Pastor Joe's Bio, continued

During this time Pastor Joe volunteered at his church, serving as a Bible teacher, men’s mentor, and ministry leader. His passion for ministry in the local church grew year-by-year.  At the age of 38, he came to a life-altering decision to leave his career in business and enroll full-time as a seminary student at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.

Upon graduation in 2001, Pastor Joe began to serve Cornerstone Church as its Associate Pastor. Soon after, in 2003 he accepted the responsibilities of lead pastor and ushered the church to a new season of ministry. In the years that followed, the church constructed a new building and moved to its current location in Grafton next to Interstate 43.

Pastor Joe and his wife, Lori, have 2 married children, 2 kids in college, and 2 adorable grandchildren!  They know what it's like to navigate the many demands of marriage, family and work while cultivating a personal, growing, and vibrant relationship with Jesus Christ.  Their desire is to take all God has done in their lives and partner with Him to help others to become fully alive in Christ.
