Nathanael has been blessed to be married to Melissa since 2006, and together with their children they live in Murrieta. They have four boys, and one little princess: Nehemiah, Elijah, Isaiah, Micaiah, and Charis. Nathanael has lived in the Temecula area since 1996 and he attended Temecula Valley High School. He has a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Biola University, and a M.Div. in Pastoral Studies from Talbot School of Theology. He has served in ministry for around 25 years and enjoys leading the teaching team at Temecula Hills.
Nathanael serves by leading the teaching team, and as a Pastor-Elder at Temecula Hills. He is directly responsible for the Sunday morning service and oversees our ministry leaders. He is passionate about seeing people become dynamic followers of Jesus Christ who take the New Testament vision of discipleship seriously, and he desires to help them develop a Christian worldview that encompasses their whole lives and leads to real, daily transformed living. His interests include spending time with his wife and children, reading about theology and philosophy, playing guitar, playing games (board games, chess, cards, video games, etc.), and talking and laughing with friends. Nathanael has a blog (that he very rarely updates!) where you can read about his philosophy of ministry, his four core values, and more. You can contact him at nking@temeculahills.org.
