Pastor Brad White is the founder and Senior Pastor of LifePoint Church. His life's passion is to clearly and creatively communicate God's Word with a variety of cultures and life stages. Every week, Pastor Brad helps the lost and broken find restoration through Jesus Christ.
In August 2000, Brad and his wife, Stephanie, moved to Tampa to plant LifePoint Church. It launched later that year. Brad has a strong heart to reach lost people, so the mission of LifePoint was to be a “church for people who don’t do church”. Brad & Stephanie live in Tampa with their 3 children: Landon, Caroline & Catherine.
