Lucas Cooper

During his 25-year tenure in vocational ministry, Lucas served for 16 years in churches in the Phoenix area and for nearly 8 years as the Lead Pastor of an historic church in Toronto, Canada, widely recognized as the world’s most multi-ethnic city. Under his leadership, the church experienced exponential numerical growth (from 400 to more than 2000 attendees), renewed vision and passion for ministry, and increased organizational health. In July of 2021, Lucas accepted a role with Redline Athletics, a franchise concept youth sports performance brand and, as the Chief of Staff, helped the organization grow from 32 to 55 locations in just 19 months. In February of 2023, Lucas accepted a role with National Christian Foundation (NCF) as the Vice President of Network Relations.

Lucas and Amy were married in April 2006. In August of 2014, they adopted our first child (Kaia) and adopted their second (Canaan) in August 2018. Outside of church, you’d find Lucas at the gym, at a great restaurant with Amy, or watching Sports Center.
