Mike Rod
PASTOR EMERITUS

Mike was gloriously saved in 1985 at the age of 31, and felt the call to pastoral ministry within a year of his salvation experience. In 1987, Mike began that journey by accepting a call as pastor to a small Baptist church in Rock Island, Texas. He graduated from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in 1990 with an Associates Degree, and has been actively involved in pastoral ministry for the past 25+ years. Under Mike’s founding leadership, GCF Brenham has grown into a church that is full of life, and full of transformed lives, as it continues to grow in its influence in Brenham and the surrounding region.
