My name is Michael Cranford, and I am serving as Men’s Ministry Coordinator. I was for 8 years a professor of biblical studies at Biola University and Talbot School of Theology, located in La Mirada, California. My heart is for discipleship -- encouraging and equipping men and women to know, trust and follow Jesus Christ in today’s world. I came to Woodbridge Community Church and became a member at the start of 2015 but I have previously served here for a time with Pastor Frank some 20 years ago.
