Jenna married her husband Clay, a pilot in the Navy, in 2014. As they moved around the world over the next ten years, Jenna was blessed with opportunities to serve and grow in  children’s ministries of all sizes. Clay retired in 2024 and the Lord led them to put down roots in Brenham. Jenna is passionate about sharing the good news of the Gospel with even the tiniest disciples and empowering parents to deepen those conversations throughout the week. With four young kids of their own, Jenna and Clay are no strangers to life’s joyful chaos and feel right at home serving the families of Center Church!

BIBLICAL LEADERSHIP AT CENTER CHURCH BRENHAM

OVERVIEW:
Leadership is critical to the healthy functioning of individual households as well as the household of God. Leadership in the church is not like leadership in the world. Leaders are first and foremost servants of Jesus and therefore servant leaders. We also recognize that all leadership in the church flows from the authority of Christ as the head of the church and all true authority resides not in a man or position but in the word of God. Jesus is the chief shepherd of the flock, the risen and reigning King who has been seated with all authority to advance the Gospel through his body.

When we look at the scriptures (specifically the Acts and the Epistles) we don’t see leaders as disconnected decision makers or power brokers in the church. We see examples of Christian maturity, who are not perfect but have shown maturity in Christ. Therefore the fundamental identity of a Christian is disciple. Leaders are disciples first and leaders second. Disciple is an identity; everything else is a role (mother, worker, etc).

ELDERS DEFINED:
Elders are biblically-qualified men who lead the church as co-equals. They submit to Christ and each other as they humbly serve as examples to the church, overseeing the direction of the church, protecting the church by teaching sound biblical doctrine, and shepherding both individual and corporate spiritual growth. Center Church’s Elders lead together, equal in authority and accountability, unique in function, and unified in direction and vision. The elder team is comprised of qualified men who meet the qualifications in Scripture. Elders oversee and shepherd specific missional communities, as well provide general direction and vision for Center Church as a whole.
