Leadership

Luke Gibson - Founding Pastor

Luke was born in Zanesville and has lived in this area for most of his life.  Luke graduated High School from Tabor Academy in Marion, MA and received his bachelor's degree at Muskingum College.  From basketball to business or being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at 10 years of age, Luke understands God is constantly building his life.  Most of his professional career has been serving and protecting the church through risk management and insurance.  This experience in ministry, alongside his service as an elder, small group leader, discipleship pastor, and teaching pastor, have been building blocks in preparation for shepherding at Bridge City Church. Together Luke and his wife Jordyn, set out to begin the work of planting Bridge City. Jordyn led worship and City Kids initially and with the expansion of their family, others have stepped in to lead those ministries of Bridge City Church. Luke and Jordyn are thankful for all that God has done as the church continues to grow and build disciples of Jesus. 

Luke and Jordyn have 5 children; Cruz, River, Moriah, Leo, and Jude.
