  • JOSH SHAFFER

    Pastor

    Josh Shaffer is a Delaware County native.  He, his wife Holly, and their daughters Lily, Evangeline, and Alana live in Norwood PA. After graduating from Philadelphia Biblical University, Josh went on to complete a MA in Theological studies at Liberty Theological Seminary. Josh firmly believes that the Church was never intended to be a religious institution. Instead, the Church is a movement founded by Jesus, devoted to carrying out the mission of God in the world.
