Steve is a graduate of Pasadena College/PLNU now, in Speech Communications and Religion, and was a Nazarene Pastor for 23 years, 12 of those years at the Las Flores Church of the Nazarene in Carlsbad. I have spent the last 28 years in University Advancement at PLNU helping thousands of families do estate planning, and advancing Stewardship of life and possessions through estate planning. I graduated from Fuller Theological Seminary with my Masters of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry in Church Renewal.
I also served part time as a Navy Chaplain for 29 years in the Reserves and another 8 years teaching training classes for those persons being mobilized for active duty in all 5 of our armed services for the Department of Defense.
More than anything, I am a passionate disciple of Christ, and believe in helping persons find Christ as Savior and Lord of their entire life.

Peter Lundell
My highest value in life, why I exist–and if you’re a believer, I hope you might agree with me–is expressed in the Lord’s Prayer, “Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven….” The Kingdom of God is our highest priority.
But in daily life how do we go about that?
From Genesis to Revelation two things, and only two things, stand out consistently with every situation and person, including Jesus himself, when it comes to being part of the Kingdom of God–that is, God’s reign and activity on earth. Those two things are his Word, the Bible as we have received it, and his Spirit, the Holy Spirit, who resides in us and does God’s work in us.
I want to be an usher of God’s kingdom to come on earth as it is in Heaven. How? Live by God’s Word and Spirit. I hope you’ll join me in this way of living.
This principle is universally applicable. It’s practice is simple. If God’s Word (our Creator’s manual) says it, we understand as clearly as we can and follow it. If his Spirit (expressing the heart and mind of God) leads us, we discern as best as we can and follow. And we do so in every area of life.
I hope you will personally experience a life of purpose, guidance, power, and peace founded on the Bible and led by the Holy Spirit.

Tim Fillmore
Pastor Tim retired this past year after 30 years of full-time ministry with the last 16 years at Parkway Hills Church in Chula Vista. Pastor Tim and his wife Allison are now free to spend more time with their 2 adult children and 6, soon to be 7, grandchildren which they feel is a blessing and of great importance. Pastor Tim, or PT to most, has been actively involved in worship leading and training worship teams as well as coaching new church plants and serving as senior pastor and worship leader. He loves to preach and bring a personal approach and challenge to everyone. PT says, "I'm excited to be with Las Flores Naz today!"
