Author: Jeff McLain
I’m a Doctor of Ministry student at Kairos University, where my research focuses on the Lord’s Prayer as a path and framework for spiritual formation and communal discipleship. I also hold an MBA in Executive Leadership from City Vision University, along with two master’s degrees from Fuller Seminary—one in Theology and Ministry, and the other in Global Leadership. Currently, I serve as the Director of Pastoral Ministries at Water Street Mission and as the pastor of River Corner Church. My journey to this point has taken me from activism and hitchhiking to seminary classrooms and ministry leadership. I live in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, with my wife and our three daughters, where we try to live simply, love deeply, and enjoy life outdoors whenever we can. Through this site and my Lead a Quiet Life blog on Patheos, I share what I’m learning about prayer, discipleship, and leading a quieter, more intentional life with Jesus.
