Tom Asbury
Lead Pastor

Pastor Tom Asbury was born in Cincinnati Ohio. He earned his Bachelors of Science from Miami University (Ohio) and a Masters of Divinity from Ashland Theological Seminary. He began at Eastridge Community Church in March 2010 and is very excited for what the future holds for Eastridge and Duluth.

Pastor Tom, his wife Lindsey and daughters Isabella and Blake are passionate about community and living the life that Jesus calls us to. Their vision for the purpose of the church is an intentional community of people following the teachings of Jesus Christ. This obviously moves us beyond just attending Church on Sundays to being the Church in their community throughout the week.
