We are overwhelmed with joy to be welcoming back Pastor Tara Beth to Good Shepherd as the lead pastor.” New pastor set to preach first sermon on March 19, 2023Įager to begin work within the congregation and local community, Pastor Tara Beth Leach, her husband, Jeff, and two sons, Caleb and Noah, are excited to return “home” to Good Shepherd. Once people are around her, it won’t be hard for them to see how warm, relational, and authentic she is and the hope she holds in Jesus. “With division in our world, she brings the love of Jesus and loving others to the forefront. “Pastor Tara Beth is a bridge builder,” noted Froschauer. I look forward to many years of living on mission together.” Good Shepherd’s Council President remarks To think that I get to now partner with this beautiful flock on 1310 Shepherd Drive is a dream made reality. “Over the years, I have referred to Good Shepherd Church as my ‘first love.’ It is a church with a rich history of passionate worship and missional work both globally and locally. “When I first stood on the platform to preach my first sermon nearly 15 years ago, I never imagined that the then 25-year-old would one day lead this church,” said Pastor Tara Beth Leach. Outside of her local church duties, she speaks widely at conferences, retreats, and universities across America on church leadership and women in ministry. She is the author of Kingdom Culture, Emboldened, Radiant Church, and Forty Days on Being a Six. She is a graduate of Olivet Nazarene University (BA) and Northern Theological Seminary (M.Div.).
