Servant Spotlight: John Bennett

John Bennett believes there is a place for everyone at New Life, and he challenges us to be "owners" in our church, not just members.

• John and his wife Jennifer have three sons: Kevin (11), Jake (9), and Andrew (6). They have been members of New Life for about six years. Their children attended New Life preschool, and they liked it so much that they decided to attend Sunday worship. "It was the service, music, and people that kept us."
• John is a civil engineer at Timmons Group where he designs land development projects such as shopping centers and healthcare facilities. In his free time he enjoys running, golf, skiing, and watching sports as well as helping out with his kids' sports and activities.
• John is a member of the men's group (High Octane Christian Men). He says this group has really helped him grow in his faith, and it makes "Christian men more Christian, and I am one of them." He also has been the Building Chairman for the past couple of years, a church council member and a small group leader.
• He believes that New Life has a broad spectrum of people who are at different places in their Christian walk. He challenges us to learn from each other. "You would not believe how much knowledge and experience is sitting near you on any given Sunday." John wants us to take advantage of all these opportunities God has provided for us at New Life.
