Our Staff

Born and raised in Scotland, Ewan started out as a mechanical engineer in the design and management side of the construction industry before coming to the United States as an adult. Having grown up in a post-Christian country, he has a lot of empathy for skeptics and those who feel that the church is irrelevant.

With a background in counseling, Ewan has a deep desire to help others find and meet with God.

He is married to Heather and has three sons: Calvin, Cooper, and Cannon.

After growing up in a small rural town in Ohio, Mike moved to Florida to become an accountant and eventually a CFO for a general contractor. But the fit wasn’t right. After years of searching for his vocational calling God led him into pastoral ministry. That struggle and experience fuels his passion to help others find their fit in God’s world.

Mike enjoys coaching (including little league baseball) and is a gifted facilitator.

Mike and his wife Trish have two sons: Noah and Liam.

Cory was born and raised in Auburn, Alabama where he grew up playing music in church. In addition to being our Worship Director, he’s a full-time financial planner and licensed CPA. As a young man, Cory took a break from the world of finance to try music full-time and even made it to Hollywood Week on American Idol.

Although he is a gifted performer, Cory’s real passion is to help others enter into worship and meet God.

He is married to Carrie and has three children: Nathan, Evelyn and Caleb.

A Georgia native, Don spent thirty years in education as a teacher and administrator but always dreamed of retiring as Churchwarden. When he’s not fixing up and maintaining our property you can find him playing multiple instruments in Celtic bands around town. He even plays the bagpipes occasionally during worship.

Don has a special connection to Church of the Redeemer because his family used to own the property over 100 years ago!

Don is married to Katharine and they have a daughter Kaitlin.

Alex grew up in Tampa and attended the University of Florida. He became a Christian at the age of  17, which is the reason for his passion to help students find and nurture a relationship with Christ. Since feeling the call to ministry during his second year of college, he has done everything he can to pursue it—including serving internships with five different churches and graduating from seminary.

Alex enjoys hanging out with friends, especially if it involves music or sports. You will also most likely find him playing the guitar or reading a good book (fiction and non-fiction!).

Alex is married to Shannon.

Seya’s grandmother was so beloved by the Africans she served as a missionary that they gave her the name of a beloved African warrior princess. In her grandmother’s honor, Seya is named after that same princess. Although she initially intended to follow in her grandmother’s footsteps as a missionary in Africa, Seya instead put her servant heart to work in nursing for 25 years.

Upon retiring, Seya’s passion to help and serve has continued through church administration. She’s an organizational genius and a very proud grandmother.

Debbie and her husband Keith have two children: Jonathan and Piper.
