Together, they have led Life Church from its inception as "Church on the Move" into a dynamic spiritual home for thousands, fueled by a mission to lead others into God's presence through authentic worship and dedicated service. After thirty-four years as Senior Pastors of Life Church, the Landis’s now serve as Founding Pastors, after passing the baton of Lead Pastors to Jon and Andrea Schwartz, in March 2024.
