Dean is a native Buckeye who graduated from THE Ohio State University in 1993. The best thing about Dean is his wife Angie of 14 years and their three kids – Sydney (11), Dillon (9), and Sylvia (6 going on 26). As the Lead Pastor, Dean’s desire is to “lead a group of people where what they say and what they live are the same thing.” He graduated from Mid-America Theological Seminary (Memphis, TN)  in 1997 with a Masters of Divinity with a minor in Memphis barbecue. When he isn’t watching tOSU football or following recruiting battles, he enjoys golf, pickup basketball, and trying to get his iphone back from his kids who are playing games on it.
