If it's one thing that defines us as ministers with Pastors Beyond, it’s the motto of our mission: Serving Those Who Serve.   
     We come to PB with over ten years in the pastorate and twelve years overseas work in the Middle East focusing on discipleship and theological training (and where we raised our 4 [now] adult children). We understand the complexities of adapting to and living in a 2nd culture...the pressures and difficulties as well as the joys!  
     Using his passion and giftings for practical teaching and preaching, Doug's greatest joy has always been building into the lives of those around him... nurturing them to walk well in their journey with Christ. Doug holds a Master of Theology in Systematic Theology and a Doctorate of Ministry in Apologetics, and remains an adjunct professor in Pastoral Ministries at two seminaries.   
     Paula's greatest joy is the raising of their family (and, the blessed fruit of that...their incredible children who love Jesus...and nine grandchildren!); and the privilege of ministering to and encouraging women in all seasons of life for the past 25 years. Paula holds a Bachelor of Theology from the Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary.   
     As well as serving in “all things pastoral,” we offer seminars geared towards overseas workers. (You can receive a brochure by contacting Pastors Beyond.). We are passionate about helping and encouraging those who serve in any way we can, to thrive and walk by the power of the Holy Spirit to live the victorious Christian life.
