Pastor Brian Gibson and his wife Jessi are lead pastors of His Church, a multisite nondenominational church. Brian grew up in the small town of Providence, KY. In his teenage years he found himself trapped in drug culture, but in 1998 he encountered the freeing message of Jesus Christ. He became committed to a local church in Amarillo, Texas where he was given a firm foundation and met his wife, Jessi. Brian has a degree in theology from Oral Roberts University. Prior to founding His Church, Brian served as an associate pastor, traveled as a speaker, taught in a school of ministry, and worked with Franklin Graham festivals. In 2004, Brian and his wife Jessi felt it was time to launch into a new chapter in Owensboro, KY. What started as a small group studying the Bible has grown into a multi-campus organization, with locations in four different cities and over 2,500 people that call one of its campuses their home church. His Church has locations in Owensboro and Henderson, KY, and Amarillo and Dumas, TX, with a vision to launch 100 total campuses in the coming years. Brian and Jessi have 3 kids: Brileigh, Justice, and Chapel. He loves leading the church, spending time with his family, playing golf, and traveling to minister in churches across the world. He still reminds people every week that the bible is true, God is powerful, and church is fun!
