Brian Lee Oliver may not have the flashy name that the rest of his family has, but he makes up for it in everything else.  He was born in Upton, Wyoming and lived two of his teenage years in Chicago, Illinois. He is a goal-oriented and passionate young man with a heart for God and preaching the word. After college he moved his family to Ohio to attend the Methodist Theolgical School in Ohio where he received his Master of Divinity. He is expecially passionate about social justice issues and helping those left behind by the world. He is a loving and dedicated husband and father. He is also very athletic and was a notable cross-country runner in high school and college. Don't be surprised to find him running around town in the middle of winter; that is, if he isn't on the basketball court running circles around his opponents.  He is a well-rounded minister who loves all forms of worshiping our Lord.
