Ronnie Holderby, Ordained Pastor and Elder at The Rock Church

After nearly losing a son to addiction, Ronnie and his family dedicated their lives to the ways of Christ. The Holderbys shared in a revelation that they decided to come together and invite Jesus to live in their hearts as their Lord and Savior. 

Through the teachings and faith of Christ, Ronnie has discovered a second chance at life and uses it to bring others into the presence of God. For more than 20 years, Ronnie and his family have donated their time, talents, and treasures to help teach men how to be impactful men of God who can be true spiritual leaders in their families, workplaces, churches, and communities. 

Ronnie is married to his wife of 45+ years, Teresa, and is a proud father to three sons, and a  grandfather in his ever-growing family. 

“I feel joy and fulfillment with a purpose I had never known, and the more I gave the Lord, the more He gave back. I’m blessed and humbled by His loving grace, mercy, and favor!” — Ronnie
