Profile photo for Ryan Johnson

Ryan Johnson has walked with Jesus to the cross like no pastor I have ever met. He’s taught me how to die to self and care about one thing: Jesus. Christ and Him crucified is the legacy of this man. Ryan preaches like Jonathan Edwards in our day; his words carry the sword of the Spirit and the truth of the Person of Nazareth. Similar to the responses toward Jesus, when Ryan preaches, you will be, ‘utterly amazed at his teaching, because he was teaching them like one with authority.’ Ryan has a deep passion for pastors to experience the presence of Jesus and to love Him more than their own lives, reputations and ministries. Ryan is opening the night at our Youth Rally, and I promise your teenagers and young people will forever be marked Jesus. Ryan and his Sara have three young children and live in Vancouver, BC.”
