Steve Sargent – Senior Minister                            Steve was hired by Southwest Central as the Youth & Family Minister in 2007 and served as such for 8 years. In 2015, Steve transitioned to the senior minister role, doing a variety of things, including planning multi-voiced worship services for our Sunday gatherings and pastoral care at large. When covid shut things down in 2020, Steve’s role shifted again. He began preaching every week through his cellphone onto Facebook Live, and when the doors opened back up a year later, he continued to preach on a nearly a weekly basis, as well as pastoral care and short-term and long-term planning, and building relationships in the neighborhood. Steve has been married to Chelsie since 2005. When they are not hanging out in Houston, they can be found traveling, hiking, reading a good book, or hunting down the best vegetarian food they can find. They have one daughter, born into the family in 2011.
