I grew up in Minooka, IL, and am the youngest of four siblings. I'm a junior, Communications major at Moody Bible Institute and I'm passionate for video production and all things worship arts. Growing up as the son of a worship pastor taught me not only how to sing for Jesus but also what it looks like to faithfully serve in the local church. After receiving multiple opportunities to serve at Crosspoint alongside my girlfriend, Maddy Joy, I came on as a Worship and Communications Intern in March 2020. Besides playing guitar on stage, I love to practice music-making in my free time, along with winning at board games (because everyone likes winning at board games even if you don't like board games), grouping up with friends on Xbox, reading all the books that can be found on the fiction or theology shelves, and spending time with friends and family both indoors and out. 

My husband, Steve, and I have been married 17 years. We have 4 kids, Ben 24 lives in Boise ID and is a computer programmer, Justin 20 lives here in Eureka and recently enlisted in the Army, Hannah 16 is a Junior at Eureka High School, and Grant 11 is a 6th grader at Eureka Middle School. We enjoy camping, boating, and spending time at our kids sporting events. I have been attending Crosspoint since 2007. I have worked behind the scenes servicing in different areas. As of this summer 2020 I have been cleaning the church for 5 years. Of which I greatly enjoy and as some may know I have a little OCD when it comes to cleaning. 

I have the privilege to have married my bride Amber (Penick) Hinrichsen on Feb. 22, 2020. I am originally from Goodfield, IL and Amber is from Brimfield, IL. We enjoy adventuring outdoors and exploring different nature preserves and parks. After graduating from Eureka High School in 2014, I attended ICC for one year which is when I started attending Crosspoint. After my one year at ICC, I transferred to Moody Bible Institute and graduated from there in May 2019. While at Moody Bible, I fulfilled my internship requirement at Crosspoint during the summer of 2017. I’ve been doing ministry to youth and college students for over 5 years in Eureka, Chicagoland, and Northwest IN areas. I consider it a huge blessing to be called by God to serve in my hometown community.

Brad and I have been married for 26 years and have 5 children (Aaron, Spanky, Ashley, Isaac & Brock). We have been attending Crosspoint since it began and enjoy leading a small group on Sunday evenings. In our free time, we enjoy attending our kids' events, cooking, taking walks and traveling. One of our favorite vacation spots is Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. I work at VIVO in Goodfield and also enjoy taking care of the books for Crosspoint. I am very thankful for the grace.& mercy the Lord has shown to me. 

Heather and I have been married for over 23 years. When we were dating in high school, she is actually the one who led me to give my life to Jesus. We are blessed with two kids, Maddy is 20 and Eli is 18. We both grew up around the Eureka area, and I graduated from Eureka College with a degree in Elementary Education. After graduation, I went to work at State Farm in Bloomington. In early 2001, God called Heather and I to start Crosspoint. Then in July 2007, after being at State Farm for nearly 10 years, I left to be the Community Life/Teaching Pastor at Crosspoint. I graduated with a Masters in Ministry Leadership from Rockbridge Seminary in the fall of 2008. Then in the spring of 2009, I moved into the role of Lead Pastor. In my spare time, I love playing, coaching, and watching basketball, working around the house, and hanging out with my family and friends.
