info_outlineChad Zueck has been in full time vocational ministry for 15 years (a Lead Pastor for 10 yrs), and has been working in men’s ministry for 18 years.
Chad was not raised in a Christian home and after his parents divorced at age 4, his upbringing was very challenging. This fueled insecurity and frustration through the teenage years. Three days after high graduation, Chad joined the US Navy. Marla and Chad got married shortly after enlisting.
Chad gave his life to Christ at 21 and began to be fathered by God. Chad got connected to a PK group at his church and grew a bunch in a short time.
Chad learned how to be a father by being fathered by God. This sent him on a journey of Spirit filled self-discovery. Chad has been healed of many wounds and he is on a mission to help men find healing for their wounds.
Chad has developed some material that will be in an ebook. It is called the “Six Bulletproof Ways to Become a Better Man.” Also, he has a podcast called, “New Kind of Man” that spurred out of Luke 2:52 and Ephesians 4:22-24.
