Lucas Cherry

Lucas Cherry is on a mission. Already in his life (23 years old) he has run enough miles as an athlete to circle halfway around the globe and in ministry with his family has traveled across the nation including authoring NOT OPEN: Win the Invisible Spiritual Culture War. These opportunities have allowed Lucas to see firsthand the battle raging against his generation. His passion is to reach his peers with the life transforming cross of Jesus Christ.

While obtaining his bachelor's degree in Accounting and Business Management from Southern Illinois University he was a Track & Field athlete and a motivational speaker for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Frontline Family Ministries, REALITY Youth Center and Victory Dream Center. He is continuing his education at Oral Roberts University where he will receive his Masters of Business Administration and his CPA Licensure with plans to serve in international missions and nonprofit development.

As one of ten children he learned to show up on time for meals and to drive a fifteen passenger van.

Lucas' personal mission statement is: To bring glory and honor to Christ as he succeeds in everything he puts his hand to, and to bring others closer to the Cross through his actions and speech.
