Fred Chambers

Fred and Lisa have served as shepherds with Standing Stone for five years. We have provided mentoring and care to over 30 ministry leaders. After more than 25 years of ministry as a pastor, missionary, and leadership couple, we have learned that our primary ministry calling is to focus on the health and effectiveness of other Christian leaders. AW Tozer wisely said, “It is doubtful whether God can bless a man greatly until he has hurt him deeply.” Being “hurt” is part of the process of becoming a wise and caring ministry leader. The key to longevity and health is learning to allow the hurts we experience to make us more empathetic and compassionate leaders. We believe that through mentoring and encouragement, ministry leaders can learn to use their difficult experiences to become healthier and more effective leaders. Our calling is to help ministry leaders experience healing and growth to become more compassionate and resilient leaders.

Fred and Lisa live in Lake Forest, CA, and have four children, two are married. Fred serves as a Pastor/elder at Southlands Church in Brea, CA, and works as an Engagement Leader for Thrivent. Lisa works as the Clinical Educator at CHOC Children’s Hospital in Orange County.
