Hi, my name is Aaron Brenner and I am the Family Pastor for Uptown Church in Albuquerque, New Mexico. I have been together with my best friend and wife Sarah for seventeen years. We have five wonderful kids, our daughter Chloe and our four boys Ezra, Kaden, Quinn and Sage. It has been very exciting to look back over my life and see how God has used every event to bring me to the place of doing Family Ministry. I was born in a Jewish home and I followed Judaism religiously until I was 18. I found that when I walked away from my Jewish roots, I had more questions than answers. For the next 17 years, I wandered away from the Lord and had intense struggles. By the grace of God, He did not leave me to wander, He found me! It was then that I had what I like to refer to as my Proverbs moment. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5-6) On October 31, 2007, I submitted my life to Him and He started to straighten out my paths. From there, He ignited a fire for Him in my heart and soul that is burning strong to this Day. I feel that one of the qualities I bring to the family of Christ is that I am a people person. I like people! My Spiritual gift is that of an encourager. One of the ways I love to encourage others is by getting in the word of God with them. I love what I do, but I am also feeling called by God to grow and challenge myself. I feel this Position would be a great fit to this call, if its God will. Thanks for your prayerful consideration.
God Bless,
Pastor Aaron Brenner
