James Bergsten: Student Life Pastor
James, his wife Emily, and their kids Gavin, Chloe and Will, have been on an incredible journey over the past few years. In all they have been through with job changes, relocations and other life events, they have remained committed to the vision of Finding Life Church. They are truly the Lord's, and have proven their undying devotion to the Kingdom over the past few years.
James got his undergrad degree from Nebraska Weslyan in Lincoln. After four years and a business degree, James felt called to youth ministry. James began formal ministry as a youth intern at Trinity Evangelical Free Church in Holdrege, NE. After two awesome years serving there, he felt a pull to increase his knowledge of pastoral ministry and moved to Canada to begin taking seminary classes at Trinity Western. Midway through his degree he met a girl, moved back to Nebraska and began his life as a husband and father.
After marrying and moving to Lincoln, James took a ministry position as the Southwest Area Director for Youth for Christ/Campus Life. In that position he directly oversaw student ministry at Lincoln Southwest and Scott Middle School.
James is an incredible man with an ability for understanding, connecting with, and influencing students. The Lord's working through him has produced incredibe fruit wherever he has gone. Together with his wife Emily, they possess a gift for reaching students right where they are at which will continue to produce fruit long into the future.
