Reagan Parker |

Pastoral Resident

Reagan was born and raised in Gilbert, Arizona. Growing up, he was raised in a faithful, Christian home in the context of the local church. At a young age, the Lord worked in his heart to bring him to repentance of his sins and a saving faith in Christ. From then on, God has been sanctifying him and has given him the desire to serve Him through ministry. Reagan attended The Master’s University, and there he had the privilege to learn from foundational BIble classes and grow in a Christian environment. It was at TMU that Reagan met his wife Elizabeth, and they got married in June of 2023. Currently, Reagan serves as Pastoral Resident at First Baptist Church San Bruno.
