Meet our leaders
SVRBC is a congregational church, led by elders (also known as pastors) and deacons. While these are the only two offices the Bible describes, we believe that each member of the church bears the responsibility to use their talents and resources to assist the church, often in leadership capacities.
Pastors
Conley Owens is a software engineer by day, but hopes one day to do the work of a pastor full-time. He is the husband of one wife and the father of eight children. He enjoys cooperative games, couch surfing, casual skateboarding, and other peculiar activities. He has been a member of SVRBC since 2010, and a pastor since 2019.
Conley was saved at an early age when he learned that blaming others for his sins didn’t actually fix anything. Instead, he trusted in the sacrificial death of Jesus Christ and found true forgiveness. He discovered Reformed theology in college after accidentally getting involved with a cult and realizing he needed a better grasp on what the Bible teaches to keep such things from happening again.
Conley holds an MDiv from The Log College & Seminary. Additionally, he has recently published a book on the ethics of ministry fundraising.
