R.C. and Julia Fries joined the staff at Radiant Church in the summer of 2021 as associate pastors. They met while attending Nebraska Christian College, where they both graduated with associate degrees in ministry. Julia went on to graduate with her bachelor's in ministry from Oral Roberts University. At 18, R.C. had a radical encounter with God, which brought him to salvation and received a call into ministry. Having grown up in Lincoln, R.C.'s heart is to see the city of Lincoln saved and brought into revival. Julia felt God's call to serve the church from a young age and even gave her first sermon at seven while serving in Mexico. Having grown up as a pastor's kid, Julia received Christ as a child.

 

Both R.C. and Julia have a great love for the body of Christ and a desire to see the lost saved. They serve in many areas of the church including administration, worship, youth and kids church. R.C. and Julia have Four young kids. They love to build, garden, camp, and worship together as a family.
