Ben completed his undergraduate degree from Northwestern College (now University of Northwestern, St. Paul) and received his Master’s Degree from Bethel Seminary. He started out at Oxboro as an intern in 2008 with the student ministry where he met his wife Anna, who was also an intern. They got married in 2010 and have three girls, who bring joy to their lives. It was also in 2010 that Ben became the full-time Associate Pastor and he had that position until January 2017 when he become Oxboro’s Senior Pastor. Ben’s primary passion aligns with the mission of Oxboro church—moving all people closer to Christ. His life has been transformed through what Christ has done on the cross and this is what we get to pursue together as a church.
Spending time with Anna and his three girls are at the top of his list outside of church. Ben also loves to play sports along with cheering on MN sports teams. Contact Pastor Ben at: ben@oxboro.org.
