Brent Klontz, Pastoral Intern/Student Ministries

(Email Pastor Brent)
Brent began his pastoral ministry at CBC in May of 2007 and feels so blessed to be part of such a dynamic and Christ-centered Church.

In January of 2008, Brent married the love of his life Sari, and they are both ecstatic about loving God and letting their marriage be a light for the gospel.

Brent graduated ASU in May of 2005 where he received his B.S. in Business Management. As he was serving in ministry, studying at ASU, and working in banking, he felt God calling him to Pastoral Ministry. Following this call, he went to the three year Pastoral Training Center in Gilbert Arizona, where he developed a friendship with Pastor Bill Pinalto who was also being trained for pastoral ministry. As he developed this relationship, he had the opportunity of speaking for a CBC junior high winter camp, where he first began to see Camelback as a place that loves Jesus Christ and esteems the Word of God.

Brent was a member at East Valley Bible Church in Gilbert Arizona for about ten years, and it was there that he grew more in his relationship with Christ, was trained for pastoral ministry, served in student ministries, and met his wife Sari. However, when he heard that CBC had a need for a man to help launch the junior high ministry while being trained in an internship as well, he became really excited.

In May 2007, the Elders at Camelback asked him to serve the students and families at Camelback Bible Church and commissioned him to make an impact for the kingdom of God in the Phoenix area.

One of Brent’s favorite verses is from Philippians 3:8 which says, “Indeed, I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord . . .”
