Andrew Smith
Lead Pastor
Born a Midwesterner but raised in the South, Andrew grew up hearing the gospel but not personally believing. After a stint of running and a redirection from pursuing law to ministry, Andrew received his undergraduate degree in Pastoral Ministry and Bible from Columbia International University. He later received his Masters in Theological Studies from Reformed Theological seminary while leading and growing a thriving student ministry. Andrew later planted a fast-growing multi-ethnic multi-generational church in Charlotte, North Carolina until moving out to Fresno to become the Lead Pastor of BridgeChurch in 2016.Leadership Team
