FOUNDING PASTORS OF THE MOVEMENT
Both Doug and Stephanie grew up in the Mahoning Valley, and after moving to Columbus for a year, they felt strongly that God was calling them back home. While so many of their generation wanted to get out of this area, they decided to firmly plant themselves in the heart of the Rust Belt, to inspire their community to believe for a new possible.
In 2011, they started The Movement with 14 people in an office building. Since then, Doug and Stephanie have experienced God's faithfulness through every season as The Movement has grown to 3 locations and impacted thousands of lives.
