Bryant Benitez is a communicator seeking to connect himself and others with Jesus. He is a pastor, leader, creative, pioneer and more who loves communicating how we can connect with God and God with us. He has over 10 years' experience leading Christian churches in a variety of denominations. His heart is for those outside of the church who are looking for something and Bryant finds simple and creative ways to communicate God's love to these folks. Bryant has found the power of connecting God's story with creative storytelling to point people into Jesus' love and a life committed to Jesus. Bryant is a husband and a father to 2 great children, ages 7 and 10. His desire is for his children to understand, realize, revel and commit themselves to Jesus and Jesus is committed to them. So, Bryant writes and communicates these stories for his kids and others so they can discover and see God's love for them. As a pastor Bryant saw people within the church had a hard time connecting with Jesus. Bryant's heart is all about reaching anyone but especially those who are feeling as though they are on the fringe of a community. Bryant likes to say, "I'm not your typical pastor." Bryant is not typical because his approach to Jesus is very biblical and yet grace filled. His desire to share Jesus with people is to be creative and yet compassionately critical. His teaching style, his stories, his podcasts, and all other creative projects are reflections of how he believes he is a 'ragamuffin' who shares how Jesus is always working on him to reach others. Bryant's first book is, "The Demon and the doG", and he is working on the final touches for another book, "The A.I. and the Alien". Bryant lives in the great state of Texas and is currently serv- ing as a hospital chaplain-pastor.
