James McDonald, husband to Stacy, father of ten (three married), and grandfather of two, serves as pastor of Providence Church. A graduate of the University of Idaho (BSME), James is on a lifelong quest to complete his Master of Divinity and is currently enrolled at The North American Reformed Seminary. A man who has worn many hats, James has served as a design engineer, operations planner, global marketing director, and a publisher, but his true love is preaching God’s Word and ministering to God’s people. He enjoys strong coffee and what some consider to be odd food – from anything Cajun to shark, crawfish, sushi, elk, ostrich. . . the list goes on and on. Thankfully, his wife Stacy is a wonderful cook, who could make cardboard taste like bruschetta.
Stacy is a pastor’s wife, mother, grandma, conference speaker, co-author of Passionate Housewives Desperate for God, and author of Raising Maidens of Virtue. While traveling with her family, she has had the privilege of encouraging women all over the globe on issues pertaining to marriage, homemaking, feminism, chastity, and feminine deportment.
James and his family moved to Central Illinois in 2006 from Southeast Texas, where he served as pastor of Crown and Covenant Presbyterian Church. The McDonald family lives on two acres of heaven in the middle of (“Nowhere”) Illinois. They spend their spare time raising a few chickens, adventuring in the woods and corn fields, and reading good books.
