Derbyshire Baptist Church

Drew Collier holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Philosophy from Christopher Newport University and a Master of Divinity degree from Baptist Theological Seminary at Richmond.

Drew first began experiencing his calling to vocational ministry as early as his junior year of high school, but says that if his calling was a word, God took a year or more to speak each letter. At times, Drew says, God was difficult to hear and impossible to find. Drew keeps his trying life experiences in mind always as he plans his ministry to the young members of our church family, seeking to push them always to think harder and deeper about their beliefs, their faith, and their relationship with Christ.

Combining his love of working with and advocating for young people with a lifelong passion for engaging in God's mission in the world, Drew seeks to minister to our youth, college age, and young adult members through meaningful and rewarding programs and events focusing on faith development, missional living, and evangelism through personal relationships.

In his free time, Drew is a sailor, a rock climber, and an amateur mechanic. He has been serving Derbyshire since June 2008.
