Mike Woods
Executive Pastor of Operations
I’ve been part of the Berean family since 2015, serving on the Deacon Board until early 2023, when I joined the church staff as the Ministry Assistant to the Lead Pastor. In August 2025, after retiring from the Mansfield Fire Department, I stepped into the role of full-time Executive Pastor of Operations.
In this position, my primary focus is to support the Lead Pastor by managing the administrative and operational aspects of ministry—taking as much off his plate as he’ll allow, so he can focus on preaching, teaching, shepherding, and vision.
My wife, Amy, and I share a deep passion for biblical counseling and together we oversee the counseling ministry here at Berean. We are grateful to be parents to four adopted children and actively serve as foster parents in Richland County.
We look forward to connecting with you and walking alongside you in your journey with Christ.
