Our Pastor's Story

Pastor Joel, a South Carolina native, is the Lead Pastor at Saxe Gotha Presbyterian Church in Lexington, SC. Previously, he served at Church of The Valley in Apple Valley, California, where he transformed the ministry by focusing on reaching new people and young families. Through strategic partnerships with city officials, he made the church a central community hub, fostering significant growth and engagement. Now, back at Saxe Gotha, Pastor Joel is leading the church into an exciting new chapter, driven by his passion for connecting faith with community and helping individuals and families find a place to belong and thrive.

Rev Joel Brantner

A Livable Theology

The strength of our faith is how we live out our Reformed beliefs in a relentlessly contextual way.

Romans 12:2
Flourishing Church

We are a part of a movement not just a denomination. Our mission is to be a church that makes disciples.

Matthew 28:19
