Q&A with Rev. Andrew Jones
By Amy Bird
Pastor Andrew Jones currently serves as pastor at First Lutheran Church and Preschool in
Concord, California, about thirty miles northeast of San Francisco. He's served the church in
varying roles over the years, including campus ministry, international mission work, professor
of preaching, and parish pastor. Andy enjoys writing, hiking, and
random adventures with his wife, Stephanie. His debut book,
Ten Questions to Ask Every Time You Read the Bible, was released
in November 2022 and is a helpful resource for the study of
God's Word—individually or with a group.
Q: What's your favorite part about pastoral ministry?
A: I love hearing about what God is up to in the lives of His people. I
love hearing stories of times when God showed His faithfulness in their
lives. I am honored to be let into situations where those stories are ready
to be told.
