Kirt Thallman Hi everyone! I currently serve at Lexington CCC. I grew up in Ohio (Go Bucks!). Jesus saved me at age 13. (Go Jesus!) He called me to be a pastor at age 16. (But I resisted - Forgive me Lord). Studied Electronics at the University of Akron. I finally surrendered to the Lord's calling to be a pastor my sophomore year. After graduating, I went to Absury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, KY. Met Mei Lan my 2nd year and chased her to Taiwan. I married her in Taiwan at age 25. (She still likes me. God is gracious.) Our kids (and His), Nate & Naomi were born in Taiwan and both currently attend Asbury University. (Time flies.) I love Jesus, family, basketball & board games. I hope you can know and love Jesus also. He is so good.
