Heather and Ashley served as full-time staff with Cru for 20 years, with Ashley directing Cru’s national graduate student ministry for 7 years. Ashley now serves as Executive Director of Seated and Sent, a ministry he and Heather founded to come alongside churches and ministries to catalyze their efforts to establish believers in their identity in Christ, to develop an outreach culture for their context and to mobilize sent-ones. Heather is an associate teaching professor at Penn State and writer of several books including Sent: Living a Life that Invites Others to Jesus (co-written with Ashley) and The Six Conversations: Pathways to Connecting in an Age of Isolation and Incivility which helps readers connect in loving conversation. As a couple, they love investing in rich and warm friendships with those God has placed in their natural pathways. You can learn more about their ministry at www.seatedandsent.com
