Meet Our Lead Pastor
Pastor Chris Sanders
Chris Sanders is the Lead Pastor of Beaver Lake Community Church, where his heart is to help people encounter God in real, everyday life. His teaching blends deep biblical truth with storytelling, honesty, and practical application, inviting people to move beyond surface faith into a lived, transformational walk with Jesus.
He is passionate about creating space for God’s presence - both within the church and in the rhythms of daily life. He believes faith is meant to be practiced, not perfected, and that God meets people right where they are, whether they’re exploring faith for the first time or seeking deeper roots.
Pastor Chris, his wife Debra, and youngest son Ti live in the woods and farmlands near Beaver Lake, where life is shaped by prayer, coffee, and long conversations about lived faith and what it means to encounter God in the everyday.
2026 Word Of The Year: FAITHFUL
No Matter What
This year isn’t about hype or burnout.
It’s about steady devotion, deep roots, and a love for Jesus that lasts.
FAITHFUL is about staying close to Christ in the miracle and the mundane.
About endurance fueled by worship, not willpower.
About keeping Jesus at the center — no turning back.
You will hear us say this frequently throughout 2026:
"Where is Jesus in your focus right now?"
Join us for a year of spiritual formation marked by trust, surrender, and a God who never fails.
Something meaningful is being built here — and you’re invited to be part of it.
