Senior Pastor

Josh Stringer
emailJosh began as the Senior Pastor of Living Stones in May 2021. In his role, he serves as the primary teacher on Sunday mornings where the goal each week is to explore together what the Bible tells us about God and the gospel. This happens by preaching through different books of the Bible so that we would practically align our lives with who God is, living for His glory day by day. Josh is a graduate of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (MDiv., 2011), and was formerly on staff at College Church in Wheaton, Illinois, where he served as the Pastor of Discipleship.
He and his wife, Shana, have been married for 20+ years and have five children.

He holds a Master of Music in Church Music from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary (2023) and a Bachelor of Music in Music & Worship Leadership from Shorter University (2020).
Aric and his wife, Amy, have one son, James, and share their home with three cats—Louie, Gracie, and Ava.
