As Organizational Partnerships Manager of PerspectivesUSA, Logan helps to facilitate the growth in Perspective's network of partnered organizations.
On his first day of preschool, Logan can recall developing two primary goals:
1. To be friends with everyone
2. To be someone worth remembering
Though he still battles a desire to stand out, God continues to sanctify Logan through Scripture, the Holy Spirit, and lessons like those taught in Perspectives. All of these help him to daily understand the weight and value of building upon God's legacy rather than his own.
His role as organizational partnerships manager can be broken down into three primary functions.
1. Networking - Connecting with liaisons of other organizations and building real relationships
2. Communications - Promoting and sharing about PerspectivesUSA’s partnered organizations
3. Innovating - Collaborating with Perspectives partners, Perspectives staff, and his Director to find new, practical ways to make the most out of national and regional partnerships
Recognizing Perspectives as the tool that it has been and now could be for God's greater mission to all people, he is excited to be playing a small part in expanding Perspective's use and usefulness for the Church.
Logan and his family currently live in Birmingham, AL where he is an active member of Iron City Church.
His amazing wife, Lauren, serves as the ministry coordinator and singular admin for Unbound Grace Ministries, an addiction recovery and free counseling non-profit in Birmingham. On days when she is not in their counseling office, she is home with their children, Sparrow and Solomon. (Baby #3 coming December 2024!) A majority of their current free time is spent laughing at their little goofballs. He prays daily that they will both soon come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ.
When Logan and Lauren are not serving with Perspectives or Unbound Grace, you can catch them reading book after book to Sparrow and Solomon, dancing to some funky jazz, watching anime, playing board games all night with friends, and doing anything and everything to gather a group of people together.
Also, Logan is an avid podcast junkie. Ask him his latest, he'll gladly give you a full list of recommendations.
