Hey there! If you're new here, so am I, as I came on Staff here at True Life in May of 2026.Coming on Staff here has been sort of a “homecoming” for me as I was born and raised in the St. Charles County area and graduated from Fort Zumalt South in 2007. I graduated from Southwest Baptist University with an Undergraduate degree in Biblical Studies, and graduated from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary with a Masters degree in Christian Education.
I came to saving faith in the fifth grade through my Church’s AWANA Program. Shortly after graduating High School I felt God calling me into the Gospel Ministry. I shared this calling with some Pastors in my life, as well as other trusted people, and they affirmed this calling on my life. I began serving in my local Church and have been serving a local Church, one capacity or another, for the past 14+ years.
I have been married to my wife, Xantiana, since 2013. In 2022 we became Foster parents! We took in two little ones, Tara (6) and Matthew (5), and then in 2023, our household grew as we added another Foster son, Dimitri. Shortly after taking in Dimitri (7), we were blessed to be able to take in his baby sister, Daisy (3), whom we have been able to adopt! We have since added another Foster Daughter, Treasure (born April 2026). In our short time as Foster Parents, we’ve had the privilege of having a total of eight Foster Children come into our home.
I see my two goals as a Pastor being, first, to help every person who comes through the doors of True Life to know Christ, to put their hope and trust in Him, and grow to become more like Jesus! Second, to help equip the saints for Ministry in the areas that God has blessed them.
In my free time I enjoy good coffee/tea, reading, board games, and watching the Blues, Cardinals, and City SC.

Hello! I’m Brandon Lewis. I’ve been married to my wife, Jocelynn, since July of 2018, and I’m grateful for the life and calling God has given us.
I gave my life to Christ as a young adult at 23. I didn’t grow up in church, and honestly, being a pastor was never something I imagined for myself. But God had a plan long before I could see it. Jeremiah 1:5 reminds me that before the Lord formed us in the womb, He knew us—and that truth has shaped the way I see my life and ministry.
My heart is to lead people to the gospel of Jesus Christ. I believe the church is called to help God’s people grow and mature in their faith, but I also believe we are called to reach people outside the walls of the church with the hope of the gospel.
One thing that amazes me about the early Christians is how they shared the gospel in everyday places—at markets, loading docks, and wherever life happened. It wasn’t only Paul or the church leaders who played a role in building the church. Ordinary believers carried the message of Jesus into ordinary spaces, and God used their faithfulness in powerful ways.

Hey there! My name is Mattie Brill and I am the worship director here at True Life Community Church. I am a wife to my husband, Eric, and mom to our daughter, Lainey. We began attending True Life in early 2022 and we immediately felt at home among the smiling faces, sound theology, and welcoming spirit.
Music has always been an integral part of my walk with God. Some of my earliest and fondest memories involve worshipping surrounded by church family. At True Life, my desire is to see the congregation in true musical worship, exalting the Lord and focusing our gaze on our Creator and Savior. The Bible contains over 400 references to believers singing and 50 direct commandments to sing to the Lord as a way to thank God, magnify His greatness, and encourage one another in the faith. My prayer is that the music at True Life does just that.
Psalm 40:3 He put a new song in my mouth; a hymn of praise to our God
Psalm 96:1 Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the Earth.

Hi Yall!
My name is Stephanie Tuck and I am the Children's Ministry Coordinator at True Life Community Church. I am a wife to my husband Josh, and a mama to my beautiful girls Marcella Joy (7) and Charlotte Lynn (6). My husband and I both grew up in this community and we love raising our girls here as well. For fun we love to do anything outdoors. We are happiest when we are out in the country or on the water either the Missouri River or the Lake of the Ozarks.
I am so excited to work with the children and families at True Life. My vision for children’s ministry is to create a nurturing environment where children are not only taught the Word of God, but also have it deeply etched on their hearts. It’s a place where children and families can experience genuine connection, feeling embraced by a loving community of believers who are walking through life together. We aim to cultivate an atmosphere where every child knows they are welcomed with open arms, and where they can grow in their faith, developing a personal relationship with Christ in an environment of care, encouragement, and support.
About the Scriptures: We believe the entire Bible is the inspired Word of God and that men were moved by the Spirit of God to write the very words of Scripture. Therefore, we believe the Bible is without error.
About God: We believe in one God who exists in three distinct persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We believe that Jesus Christ is the second member of the Trinity (the Son of God) who became flesh to reveal God to humanity and to become the Savior of the lost world.
About Humanity: We believe that all people were created in the image of God to have fellowship with him but became alienated in that relationship through sinful disobedience. As a result, people are incapable of regaining a right relationship with God through their own efforts.
About Salvation: We believe that the blood of Jesus Christ, shed on the cross, provides the sole basis for the forgiveness of sin. Therefore, God freely offers salvation to those who place their faith in the death and resurrection of Christ as sufficient payment for their sin.
About the Christian Life: We believe all Christians will be satisfied by living for Christ and not for themselves and thriving to be obedient to the Word of God and daily yielding to the Spirit of God.
About the Church: We believe that the church is the body of Christ, of which Jesus Christ is the head. The members of the church are those who have trusted by faith in the finished work of Christ. The purpose of the church is to glorify God by loving him and by making him known to the lost world.
We were created to enjoy a personal relationship with God.
People have a natural desire to be the boss and to ignore God's principles for living. The Bible calls this attitude: sin. Sin breaks our relationship with God.
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23
When our relationship with God is not right, it causes us to not have the true life that God intends for us.
God Himself came to earth as a human being to bring us back to Himself. If any other way would have worked, Jesus Christ would not have had to come.
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6
JESUS HAS ALREADY TAKEN CARE OF YOUR SIN PROBLEM!
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
Admit that God has not been first place in your life and ask Him to forgive your sins.
If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. 1 John 1:9
Believe that Jesus died to pay for your sins and that he rose again, and is alive today.
If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. Romans 10:9
Accept God's free gift of salvation. Don't try to earn it.
For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
Invite Jesus Christ to come into your life and be the director "Lord" of your life.
But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:12-13
You can do this by praying a simple Prayer of Commitment to God:
"Dear Jesus, thank you for making me and loving me, even when I've ignored you and gone my own way. I realize I need you in my life and I'm sorry for my sins. I ask you to forgive me. Thank you for dying on the cross for me. Please help me to understand it more. As much as I know how, I want to follow you from now on. Please come into my life and make me a new person inside. I accept your gift of salvation. Please help me to grow now as a Christian."
For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:13
