CBC's council of elders

 
John Brown  

John Brown, Council Chairman

My story: I became a Christian in 1979 after several believers had witnessed to me over a 10-year period. I married my lovely wife, Janet, in 1981 and we have three children. We started attending CBC in 1984 and have been involved in supporting missions since 1989. We've been on several short-term missions to a Navajo reservation and Kenya.

 

I believe all Christians are missionaries every day.  We should live our lives so other people can see the love of Jesus in us. We need to be willing to share our faith by our words and actions whenever we have the opportunity. We spread the seeds.  The Holy Spirit changes hearts.

I accepted the Lord at 14 years old while attending Los Gatos Christian Church. Rich Marshall led me to the Lord. I began attending Crossroads in 1990. Mary, my wife, began attending with me in 1991. Along the way, I have taught Sunday School for a total of 6 years, have participated in choir and drama for the past few years and led a house church.

I'm the National Sales Manager for a mid-sized Chemical Manufacturer. When people ask what I do, I tell them, "my job is to make

 

friends." God has blessed me with a position that affords me ample free time to devote to God's work, as I work from home. Most recently, I have been part of CBC's volunteer staff as the minister of Evangelism. I have three daughters: Brittani (22), Cortnie (20), and Noelle (13).

Four years ago, God really began to grab hold of my heart. He showed me areas of my life that I needed to give up to Him. I began letting go of many things that were preventing me from being closer to God. The last three years, have been an amazing journey. Those sins that I once held onto are completely gone. This has allowed clearer communication with the Lord. Every day, I am truly excited to see what God is going to do. I believe that God has been preparing me for this position and I am very excited about what God will do here at Crossroads in 2009 and beyond.

I received Jesus as my personal Lord and Savior in July 1982, along with my wife, Janet. We had both been struggling spiritually before we received Christ, but we experienced a "rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit," (Titus 3:5). We began searching for a church and the Lord led us to CBC. We were baptized and became members in 1983.

I work as a self-employed financial advisor in the field of investments and insurance. Janet is a homemaker and retired RN. We have four children: Nicole, 29, Elizabeth, 27, Stephanie,

 

25, and Daniel, 21. They all received Jesus Christ into their hearts before 6th grade.

I have served in the Awana Club as Commander/Director for 15 years, in choir and band for a number of years, and as a Life Group Leaders for many years. I also had the privilege to previously serve as a lay elder at CBC for 6 years. My passion for the body of Christ at CBC is to see hearts turn toward the Savior to love Him with every breath so much that the love of Christ overflows into the community and the world.

Reynolds Stewart, Council Vice-Chairman & Secretary

My story: I am the youngest of two children born to Reynolds (Sr.) and Nancy. From my family, I learned the value of love and the importance of family.

In 2006, my job transferred me and my family to Santa Clara. Once we were settled, we began our search for a church; through a series of events led by the Holy Spirit, we found Crossroads. We have been attending ever since and we're certain we're at the right church!

 

The most important person in my life...was my grandmother, with whom I had a special relationship. At an early age, I began attending church with her and learned about the love of Jesus Christ. She helped raise me to become a faithful and obedient Christian, a lover of food and a great cook!

Whether as a trophy-winning (midget league) football player, an All-American high school wrestler, a collegiate football player, marrying the love of my life (Sabrina), enjoying a 26-year hotel executive career, being a father to a great kid, or cooking omelets for my brothers in Christ, I know that any success is a blessing from my lord and Savior, Jesus Christ!

My vision for Crossroads: I want to see CBC's members grow in love for one another and to see the men of this church become warriors by leading their families in accordance with God's will.
