“Over the years I’ve seen Rustin grow in his knowledge and application of Scripture, and in maturity and grace as a pastor and leader. As a Bible teacher, his vulnerability, honesty, and openness has imprinted countless lives for Christ across generations. As a mentor to young pastors and counselor to many, he inspires others to grow deep roots in Christ. As a husband and father, he leads with love and deep devotion. Knowing this about Rustin, I wholeheartedly endorse his ordination to pastoral ministry at Scottsdale Bible Church.”

Elder

“Not only is Rustin a fit for Scottsdale Bible Church, but he is also a fit for the local geography. This is an absolutely critical piece in this search and evaluation. 

Should Rustin be chosen for this role, he will be able to replicate, transfer and perpetuate so much of Scottsdale Bible Church’s culture naturally and organically in a way that other outside candidates may never be able to.”

Senior Associate, Slingshot Group

We thank God for Rustin, we are grateful for him, and we love him!”
