Josh Hammers
Associate Pastor
We are very humbled that God and Capital have called us to be here as Associate Pastor and Wife.
I have been with Capital since I was a child. First as a youth, then in service working with the sound on Sunday mornings. I became a Deacon of the church and served in this capacity and finally God called me to the pastoral ministry in 2025.
My favorite scripture verse is John 3:17 which says, “God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through Him.” I love this verse because it embodies why Christ came for us. He came to give His life that we may live. Not to judge us unworthy of life.
