Rodney Livingston

Rodney Livingston brings a sense of joy and purpose to everything he does.  Being around Rodney it does not take long to discover his deep love for life and for ministry. It just comes naturally to him since he grew up as a “preacher’s kid” near Booneville, Mississippi. (Rodney’s dad, Ronnie is the long-time preacher for the Marietta, Mississippi Church of Christ and his mom, Cathy, accompanied Rodney on some of his Lithuania mission trips.)

Rodney brought this sense of purpose to his educational pursuits- earning his B.A. in Bible from Magnolia Bible College in Kosicuko, Misssissippi in 2007 and his M.Min from Freed-Hardeman University in Henderson, Tennessee in 2009. Currently he is working to complete his M.Div at FHU.

Rodney brought this sense of purpose to the mission field. He spent several summers working in Lithuania as a counselor and teacher during sessions of Lithuania Christian Camp. He also served as a Bible teacher during a trip to Mexico in 2006.

Currently Rodney is serving as associate minister at the Leoma Church of Christ in Leoma, Tennessse. Rodney explains that since there is no youth minister at this congregation he “gets to fill that role very often.” Supporting Rodney in his ministry is his wonderful wife, Chasity. They are blessed with one daughter, Macie-Kate who is three years old and are expecting her brother, Callan, around September 3rd.  One of Rodney’s greatest joys is spending time with his family.

The outdoors appeal to Rodney. He “loves to play golf and softball.” “Hunting,” he says “is a big part of my life.”

“Studying the Bible and working through classes is a great challenge for me,” Rodney shares. He considers this a “hobby.” He also enjoys working with children through his ministry.

None of this is surprising if you know Rodney. His life is ministry and ministry is his life. He brings the same passion, purpose and joy to both and numerous people are blessed as a result!

Thanks for your heart of ministry and your beautiful feet Rodney. We are indeed blessed and encouraged to see such dedication in your life and ministry.  The kingdom everywhere is stronger for your service.
