Ned Schaut

Youth Pastor

I am really nobody at all, but I love Jesus with my whole heart and am wrestling everyday to figure out what it looks like to love Jesus and live like Him. I have been a follower of Jesus ever since I can remember. It is an amazing journey and I am convinced there is no other way worth living.

I have been in Orange County, CA for the past six years and attending Vanguard University pursuing my Pastoral Leadership degree. I have been married to an amazing woman, Sarah, since 2004. We have a beautiful daughter named Brooklyn and another little girl on the way.

In Orange County I was blessed to be part of a leadership team under Pastor Grant Thiessen at Living Waters Christian Fellowship for four years, and then involved in a church plant under the same pastor in Huntington Beach, called Experience for the past year. While at these churches I was very involved in the youth leadership and church leadership. From 2001 through 2006 I also started a clothing company, Soldiers for Christ, which was designed for young people to help find an identity in Christ.

I am currently the youth director of One Life church. I do not always feel the most qualified but I challenge you to pray for your kids more than I do, and I will love every kid that comes into my life to the best of my ability.

My desire is for the youth of Lincoln and Roseville to see how in love I am with my Creator and that they would join me in the journey of having a relationship with our Savior and Creator.
