The speakers are from Victory Life Church. Here is a brief introduction of who they are and what they do.

Pastor Jacob Sheriff has dedicated his life to being transformed into the likeness of Christ. His dad, Duane Sheriff, is the Senior Founding Pastor of Victory Life Church. His heart’s desire is to share the truth in love and to help others discover who they are in Christ.

As a second-generation pastor, Jacob has been blessed to have been introduced to the Gospel and have a relationship with Jesus from a young age. Jacob has been a part of the pastoral team at Victory Life Church since 2005, and now serves as the Senior Lead Pastor. He has had such radical encounters with the power of God that seeing people transformed by Jesus has become his life’s mission. The most significant part of the call of God on Jacob’s life is to his incredible wife, Hannah, and their five children. They are committed to raising their children to be disciples of Christ. In his free time, you can find Jacob reading, studying, enjoying good coffee, and backpacking. He is a Holy Spirit gifted communicator in sharing the truth of the Gospel of Jesus.

Pastor Zach Backues is the VLC Durant Campus Lead Pastor. Zach has been with Victory Life Church since 2010 in various volunteer and staff positions. He and his wife Serena have 5 children: Jovie, Judah, Lennon, Kenna, & Phoenix. Zach has a passion to see people experience the reality of Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit. His favorite thing to do is travel with Serena.

Pastor Landon Heinen serves as the Pastor for Victory Life Academy. He has a love for The Word of God and a passion for seeing people transformed by Jesus. He has a father’s heart to encourage the gifts and callings that God has placed within people, and to help foster a lifetime desire to follow God, Learning about Him, all that He created. Landon and Jasmine have been married for over two decades and are raising five amazing kids.

Mrs. Jasmine Heinen is passionate about sharing the love of God through his word. Her desire is for students to know the character of God, then effectively apply God’s Word to their lives. She has a gift of encouragement and sees the gold in every student. Trained in Emotional Intelligence and Crucial Conversations, she continues to pursue higher education and relational studies.

“When baking a cake, if the baker uses half of just one ingredient the cake cannot fully be enjoyed.

As we walk with God if we are missing one ingredient or using only half of what is called for, our Christian life cannot be fully enjoyed.” (Lee Armstrong)
