About Us
We met in college at Lubbock Christian University and have been married since 2014. Drew studied Communications. Kelsea studied Psychology as well as obtained her masters in Counseling.
We’ve been working together in ministry since 2016 and first started teaching on relationships in 2017. We spent seven years working together as youth ministers & loved it.
We have now stepped into a full-time ministry for college students and young adults to equip them in their relationships. In our spare time, you will find us reading, playing video games, traveling, and snacking.

About Abide and Thrive
In 2017 we were youth ministers teaching at a church camp, Encounter, in Lubbock Texas. We taught a class on relationships - it went over really well! Every year when we went back to camp, we continued to teach on relationships with a big focus on encouragement based on the truth of God’s word.
Though we didn’t know it then, this was the beginning of what we have now stepped into full-time.
Abide and Thrive is a ministry encouraging others in their singleness, dating, and marriage. While we often speak into romantic relationships, much of what we lean into applies to all types of relationships, particularly a person’s relationship with God, Jesus, and Holy Spirit.
Our primary audience is 18-35 year olds. We speak truth at conferences, speaking engagements, and on our podcast - Abide and Thrive Podcast.
