Our Story

It's All About Jesus.

Crowned Truth was born from a legacy of faith, a season of refining, a God-given vision, and built on one unchanging truth-Jesus is always faithful.

Chapter One

Pastor. Mentor. Father. Friend.

The legacy

This isn't just our story...

Some people leave behind possessions. Larry left behind a legacy.

Larry was Ben’s dad, a man whose life was centered on one simple truth: It’s All About Jesus.

He came to know Jesus as an adult and immediately began investing in teenagers through youth ministry in our small hometown.  He pastored our country church for many years and traveled the world sharing God’s love.

His passion was simple.  His message was clear.  He believed that lives could be changed through faith, that families could be strengthened through truth, and that a legacy isn't measured by success, but by the lives you influence for eternity.

His passion, his faith, and his legacy continue to inspire everything we do.

It's All About

Jesus.

Those weren't just words Larry said.

They were the way he lived.

The way he led.

The way he loved.

And today, they remain the heartbeat of Crowned Truth.

Chapter Two

God Was Preparing Us

Long before we understood where God was leading, He was already preparing us. Looking back, we can see His fingerprints throughout the years—the gifts He gave us, the places He called us to serve, and the lessons He was quietly teaching us along the way.

Our Gifts

For years we worked in apparel and printing, not realizing God was giving us tools that would one day become part of Crowned Truth.

Our Service

We served deeply in our local church, learning what it means to lead, serve, disciple, and care for people behind the scenes.

His Plan

Only later could we see how God was shaping our hearts, building our experience, and preparing us for what He already knew was ahead.

He was preparing the way.

Chapter Three

A Season That Changed Everything

Then came a season we never expected.

We had poured our hearts into serving, building, and helping lead a church community we deeply loved. But over time, things became difficult. What should have been a place of safety and spiritual growth became a season of hurt, confusion, and hard decisions.

Walking away cost us relationships. It brought grief. It forced us to wrestle with questions we never thought we'd have to ask.

But God met us there.

People will fail us.

Jesus never will.

Through it all, God reminded us that our hope was never meant to rest in a pastor, a ministry, or a building. Our hope has always been—and will always be—found in Jesus.

Our Vision

We dream of Crowned Truth becoming more than a brand. We envision a place where people can find biblical truth, encouragement, authentic community, and practical discipleship that points them back to Jesus.

A place built around truth, grace, growth, and the Gospel.

As Crowned Truth grows, this is what we pray it becomes:

A Place to Gather

Over coffee, authentic conversations, and real community.

A Place to Grow

Through Bible studies, devotionals, and discipleship resources.

A Place to Be Equipped

To live out our faith and make disciples in everyday life.

A Place to Belong

No matter your past, your struggles, or where you are in your faith.

A Place to Reach Others

Locally and globally with the hope of the Gospel in practical ways.

And One Day, A Place

Where all of these things can come to life in a space filled with purpose and people.

We know people are the ministry.

People aren't perfect. Churches aren't perfect. Ministries aren't perfect. But Jesus is. He is still faithful. He is still worthy of our trust. He is still building His Church. And He is still changing lives.

Because at the end of every story, every season, and every step...
It's All About Jesus.
