Welcome to Our Newest Members
Pastor Ronn Oren - Clergy Fellow
Services Offered: Leadership Training Pastoral Counseling Non-Profit
Services Provided To: Danville Christian Church Leaders, Mentors, Clergy, Church groups, Spiritual Care Providers.
Bio: I was reared in Farmland, Indiana. Really, the town is named "Farmland." Yes, there are buildings in Farmland and no, there aren't any stoplights. I was raised on a small family farm, and I had plans to have a career in agriculture. God had other plans! The Lord called me into professional ministry on the day I graduated from High School. I moved to Haviland, Kansas and attended Barclay College. At Barclay College, I met and married Yvette Sorensen. After graduating from Barclay, we moved back to Indiana and I attended Wesley Seminary until I graduated in 2001.
After serving as a pastor for eight years and a denominational superintendent for four years, I was hired as the Executive Director of Christian Service International. Christian Service International is a short-term sending mission agency that partners with 400 churches across the US to send short term mission teams to several countries to share the gospel through service projects.
Since 2012 I have served as a pastor with the Christian Church, Disciples of Christ and currently reside in Danville, Indiana. I often lead a leadership workship called, "Next 2 Steps," which helps people discern the direction in life and/or ministry.
The best days of my life are when I spend time with my family. Yvette and I have three children, Tristan, Tiffany, and Tegan. I also enjoy reading, hiking and teaching.
My spiritual gifts include teaching, shepherding, and apostleship. My favorite way to "recharge" my batteries is to take a spiritual retreat day at a park or retreat center to break away from the normal routine of life.
